Sly James sent KC BBQ to Nashville after losing a bet

And he chose...Jack Stack :facepalm:

http://www.kansascity.com/news/local...193913359.html

Quote:

Mayor Sly James pledged to send some Kansas City barbecue to Nashville Mayor Megan Barry’s office if the Tennessee Titans beat the Chiefs in last weekend’s playoff game.

They should be getting it by the end of the week.

James’ office was diplomatically silent on specifics when the the friendly wager was made. But now a choice could not be avoided. What should we send to represent Kansas City’s barbecue excellence to another barbecue power city? Joe’s Kansas City? Gates? Arthur Bryant’s?

The chosen venue was Fiorella’s Jack Stack Barbecue.

The order will consist of pork spare ribs, pork burnt ends, BBQ sausage, hickory pit beans, cheesy corn bake and an assortment of Jack Stack sauces.

That was his way to"Clay welch" a bet. Found a loophole by sending substandard Q.

Given the lack of decent BBQ here in Nashville, our dim witted mayor won't know the difference.

"Nashville Hot Chicken" is a lie, isn't it? I have never heard of this until a few years ago and now it's supposed to be some traditional thing.

Charade you are, Nashville hot chicken.

Jack stack has been shipping for a while

Sly paid up, can’t hate for keeping his word :shrug:

Jacks pit beans are the best in the city by quite a bit

The meat can be a bit bland

If Nashville had any ethics at all, they'd forward it directly to Triplette. He's the one who earned it.

Not only is Nashville Hot Chicken real, it's spectacular. And if the story is to be believed, it's origin is one of the best.

Hattie B's husband pissed her off, then told her to fix dinner. Dinner that night was fried chicken. She figured she'd fix his wagon by dousing it in cayenne.

Turns out he loved it, and the neighbors loved it, and the city loved it.

I haven't had it in Nashville, but I've had Gus' here in St. Louis on Manchester [OK, better than most fried chicken] and Southern on Olive [a truly religious experience].

Nashville Hot Chicken is no lie, it is 100% legit. That KFC crap that they are peddling is to Nashville Hot Chicken as the McRib is to KC BBQ.

Bring cash, come to the 'hood and have some Prince's Hot Chicken and leave a changed man...in a good way.

Nothing wrong with Jacks at all.

There may have been some issues with Q39 or Joes fulfilling the order and getting it shipped... who knows what really went on behind the scenes.

I had some heath issues recently and a friend of mine sent me a care package including a few different varieties of burnt ends from Jack Stack (ham, pork, and beef). The ham ones were tasty, though not really "burnt ends", but the pork ones were quite good. Gonna eat the beef ones later this week!

EDIT: Not the greatest photo, but here were the pork "ends" shortly before being devoured:

Jack Stack is substandard Q? :shake:

So their burnt ends may not always be burnt ends, they are always very tasty. And their cheesy corn is the best side ever made to go with Q.

Zarda would be the best Q down here by far.

I recently got some Joes KC shipped down here. Burnt ends, Ribs and Brisket. It was a gastronomical orgasm. They have been able to develop a fantastic process to freeze and then serve some of the best Q in the USA, anywhere in the USA.

Hope it has the right mixture of AIDS in it.

And send it next week for comfort food after the crushing defeat we wisely avoided.

He should have sent Pyler "S***" Bway instead.

He should have just sent them a big box full of McRibs. They wouldn't know the difference.

Isn't that something you arrange when both cities are in the final game or series?

They agreed Hattie B's is better, even if Prince's is the original.

I was there a week and ate Hattie B's three times. Maybe four.

They try to do it in LA, but it isn't the ****ing same. Not by a long shot.

There's a Gus's next to KC Joes. never been there but I know someone who's opinion I trust that works nearby.

It's just Buffalo fried chicken isn't it?

Zarda's ribs aren't that bad. Its not their best thing. Worst ribs (IMHO) from a KC BBQ joint is either Wyandotte or Earl Quicks. Don't care for Rosedale's ribs much either. I think Wyandotte is the worst of the bunch. Taste like overcooked pot roast.

Right? I've had some amazing food and experiences at the JackStack Freight house.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Q39 and Joe's... but many other BBQ gets unnecessarily shunned due to the reputation of those two places.

Smokehouse (Zona Rosa) still has the best BBQ Beans, and their "Super Crispy" chopped brisket sandwich is better than Jacks "Poor Russ".

I like the sauce at Zarda's and their beef brisket. I'm ok with the ribs there. I like ribs that you can sink your teeth into. I've never gotten into ribs that are so tender, when you pick them up they fall off the bone. If I wanted BBQ flavored mushy baby food, I would buy baby food and pour BBQ sauce into it.

I'm with you on that. When I'm back in KC, I will swing by there and get a quart of the pit beans to go, and then go someplace else for the rest of my BBQ.

Zarda is definitely worth a trip when their rib tips are on special, usually at night after the dinner rush. I think a pound cost about $1.50.
