Food and Drink I need the best BBQ joint near Gladstone

Duck Dog · 04-10-2009, 01:39 PM

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.

That one might be bit out of his way. But it sounds delicious.

This intrigues me.

What KC places have you personally been to?

Thanks, I'll mention LC's. But after reading a review, I've found they don't serve beer.

Smokestack BBQ on North Oak in Gladstone is ok, not great but not bad either.

Is there still a Bryants in the Ameristar Casino?

I'll be honest only... Arther Bryants, Gates, KC Masterpiece and Smokehouse

maybe I was being a little over the top with my comments.

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

Cannibal · 04-10-2009, 01:51 PM

But, I will say that B & C seriously is among the best BBQ around. The pork ribs and pulled pork are the best i've ever had.

Thanks. I did a Google for Stroudts and the 3rd link provided was from the Planet.

**Dave Lane** · 04-10-2009, 01:59 PM

Its actually Strouds and it has great chicken but no BBQ

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..
