Scott's Kitchen up by the Airport is another gem that people seem to ignore that is excellent.

I'll admit I've only had Harp about 4-5 times. It's not close to where I live and was always inconvenient to go early on Saturday's when they were operating out of Crane Brewery. But each time I've gone, it's been consistently nails. Last time I went they had a blueberry and white cheddar sausage that was better than sex. And the brisket is that thick cut, fatty with good char style.
I rarely have "bad" BBQ at any of these places in KC. I've just come to find that these small craft places can consistently put out a better quality that the super popular places like Joes and Jack Stack. That being said, I'd eat any of them any day of the week and be happy.
