I need the best BBQ joint near Gladstone
A buddy is heading down form Minnesota to play in a softball tourney at Happy Rock Park in Gladstone. He was asking about the best BBQ joint. I gave him the usual suspects but I'm unfamiliar with his options that far north.

Probably LC's on Blue Parkway by the stadium. Maybe Bryants by the race track then you could stop at legends

It takes like 15-20 minutes to get to any of the downtown-ish joints. Surely he can make a small detour.

The best BBQ joint in the entire midwest is "B & C Creations" in Wichita, KS.
It's a "crafty" art gallery, but at lunch during the week they have a BBQ buffet that dominates. Always packed to the gills. The best pork ribs I've ever had. Some of the best if not the best pulled pork I've ever had. I will admit that thier beef brisket is not the best however... but they sure as f()ck can smoke some pork. |

The Two Brothers buffet isn't half bad either. I work out by the airport so we go to that one on Central all the time. They have good burnt ends and the pulled pork isn't bad either. |

Smokestack BBQ on North Oak in Gladstone is ok, not great but not bad either.
Is there still a Bryants in the Ameristar Casino? |

If you're in the northlands, just go to Stroudts.

The chicken place?? Place is horrible..
If it is northland only bbq.. You have Smokehouse and smokebox on different parts of n. oak.. Both are average to below in my opinion.. (5-7 min drive) There is a place called mighty mo's or something to that affect off or 64th st like you were going to parkville by patty O'guigly's..(10-15 min drive) Honestly depending on what type of meat they want, Arthurs Bryants in Ameristar is the best choice(for sandwiches imo), about 15-20 minute drive from happy rock.. |

Strouds is excellent, but it's not bbq & you'll wait for a table. They're famous for their fried chicken but the grilled pork chops are to die for.
Smoke House has a place on N. Oak, just a mile or two from Happy Rock Park. They also have a place in the Zona Rosa shopping district (mini Country Club Plaza) at I29 & Barry Rd. There's Marty's BBQ in Liberty also. It's about 5-7 miles from the park. If you want AWESOME food, go to Piropos in the Briarcliff area near Riverside. Expensive but delicious. [not bbq] Dress is semi-casual. It's on the web. [I used to live up that way.]
