Expand from there: Arthur Bryant's at 18th & Brooklyn for the historic KC BBQ; Joe's KC BBQ at 47th & Mission for the "wait in a ridiculously long line at a gas station for killer BBQ" experience; Gates at 103rd(ish) & State Line to get yelled at (those who know, know); then Q39 South for the OP "we rich" BBQ. Leave the LCs to the locals... it's killer BBQ but the experience will leave most out-of-towners traumatized.
Bryant's ain't Bryant's anymore. Do not recommend, sadly. Nor Gates.

Joe's is king. Slaps is ok. Q39 is good but I hate the atmosphere.
