I've had jack stack and i would say the brisket is better at jack stack and the ribs may be better at 17th street (although I had spare ribs at jack stack and baby backs at 17th st)
No, it's not.

I've been to 17th street and it was pedestrian at best. The pulled pork was uninspired and the sauce is likewise. In fact, I've got a bottle of it up in the fridge. I think I'll try it again to make sure right now...

Yep. Mediocre.

Especially when compared to KC's stuff.

Gates, LC's and Big T's are the closest to Arrowhead. Zarda caters BBQ at training camp. Jack Stack is "upscale" dining. Arthur Bryant's is vintage old school. Smokehouse doesn't even register on the BBQ richter scale.

I know the two places were tied together at some point for some reason... It would be nice to know the details.
thebbq sauce is very similar.

I always get the burnt ends sandwich (super crispy) with fried corn nuggets. Mmmmmm

Is there more than one Smokehouse location in NKC?

Because the one at Zona Rosa is ****ing gross.

I've been to jack stack many times in op and if it is upscale, how is the smokehouse in zona Rosa not?

Gladstone, but the atmosphere is a dive.

from what I've heard it was a family split and a very similar recipes. I eat smokehouse cause I'm in the northland, but my god I love it.
Jack Stack and the Smokestack locations was the family split.

you can't beat Arthur Bryant's with that shit

I ate at both places while in exile in St. Louis. Neither hold a candle to the lower-on-the-rotation KC places.

Went there a couple of months ago it was pretty good but not even close to KC BBQ. Texas is the lone star state because they'd be rated 1 star if any of their joints tried to expand into KC.

I just don't get the love for Jack Stack? It's "okay". Nothing special though I do like their beans and the cheesycorn is awesome!

Their BBQ is meh at best.

Not even close. Pappy's is merely a stand in for BBQ for those of us not in KC. As was noted, their sauce sucks. The meat is good, but nothing to write home about. I still crave KC BBQ and this does not cut it.
