Best BBQ joint in KC area?

We are driving down to KC and I usually go to Gates, but want to try something different this time around.

I'm looking to go to the absolute best BBQ joint in the KC area for dinner tonight and figured you guys would know best. Maybe a few of you want to come out and eat with us.

What say you, CP?

I've always thought the Smokehouse on North Oak was extremely underrated. I really like Gates too, but feel that OK Joe's is more yuppie hype than substance.

Anthony Bourdain disagrees with you about Joe's KC. It's on his list of 13 places to eat before you die. It's the furthest thing from yuppie.

Ordering BBQ at a gas station doesn't really strike me as yuppie... granted, there's the OP restaurant, but I don't think that's where the hype originated.


I appreciate OK Joe's for the meat, as they let it stand on its own without drenching everything in sauce... as opposed to Gates, which has better sauce anyway, IMO.

Well, I'm glad that Anthony Bourdain thinks so highly of a second tier KC BBQ place that it's one of his 13 places to eat. That's also not a legitimate argument. And when talking about Joe's I'm not talking about the ambiance of the gas station, but the extent to which it has been hyped as the greatest thing ever, especially by people 25-45, despite not doing much to separate itself. It's not bad by any means, but aside from their pulled pork, they really don't do much all that well.

I'll have to hit up Q39 next time I'm in town, which may be this summer. Oh, and Joe's KC, too. I've never had it.
I have never had overcooked and dry meat at Jack Stack. You must just be showing up at really odd times.

Zarda's is OK, but nothing special. Can't day as though I've ever had a bad meal there but can't say as though I've had a great meal there either.


It really depends on what you are wanting. For example if you want ribs go with Arthur Bryant's (original location and use the bold and spicy sauce not the regular), Jack Stack or OK Joe's. Jack Stack dies everything will to excellent. Most other places have one or two items they do really well.

Their ribs are well above average.

My sister's Rehearsal Dinner was at Jack Stack on 95th and Metcalf. I was really disappointed in the food. On our next visit, we went to the downtown location, which was a little better but the cigarette smoke pretty much ruined the meal.

My parents like it so we've had it as dine in and carry out at the Metcalf location several times over the years. I've never had, what I'd call anyway, a good meal, nor have I been impressed. The sides have always been decent but the meat unimpressive.

I guess everyone has different tastes.

That's too bad. Last went there in the 90's and it was really great. If I recall right other than the meat I really loved the bbq beans they had that spent some time in the smoker.

And I don't know if it is too late or not, but I might be down for meeting up for dinner.

Smokestack, re-opened as The Stack with new owners, on Wornall is the definition of middle of the road bbq. The Polk-A-Dot Lounge next door is very legit, however.
