One of the best and over looked BBQ joints . It is a little small (great outdoor space though. We get take out quite often!
If you can make it in for brunch on the weekend... Best bacon I've ever had. The smoke it. Melts in your mouth... AMAZING!
It sounds weird but get the sausage . The best meat they have!! Sweet potato fries are like crack. They have good live music on the back patio on Fridays!
Drove all the way from Texas to try this BBQ joint , and it was definitely worth it! The moist brisket and the ribs rule!
This is the best BBQ in KC. Don't fret over the menu, there is nothing bad on it, whatever you order will be great!
Pork belly burnt end are as decadent as they come. Pair with another meat are you have something special.
Nachos were awesome!! Brisket soup was good as well . The brisket burnt ends left a lot to be desired. Definitely had better. All in all, overpriced and not the best in a town known for awesome BBQ .
Gotta try the "Butt Burger "! Very good Bob-Be-Que. Yes, it IS a shack with limited seating . Don't let that scare you off.
They almost always have sand. W/fries for $4.50 (carry out special). The sand. Is small, but you get a lot of fries to make up for it.
Pork burnt ends are decent, but not as savory as they should be. The beans are average. The sauces are great though. Those will make anything taste good.
Breakfast on the weekends. Order the Biscuits and Gravy with a side of Burnt Ends .
Don't miss the fries or whatever special of the day is being cooked up. Don't under estimate a BBQ brunch either.
It's hard to measure up to Texas BBQ , but this place does it, and then some! Must check out the cheesy corn .
Go with lamb ribs and sweet potato fries . ????????????
If you have a healthy appetite, and are trying the Butt Burger , order two. Just one looks like it comes from the Kid's Menu.
Rib special every Sunday. Perfect for two to three people!
Order the $5 lunch special ! Plenty of food for not a lot of money!
Great pork and sausage gumbo . Can be your side item for an up charge

This place has to be my favorite BBQ joint .
I eat here every Monday night! Love this place, the service and the waitresses! They are the bomb! - Patricia Garcia
The staff is very nice. A welcome change from the sullenness we usually see at fast food places. - Shelly Harbert
Clean, modern decore, plenty of screens, great matinee pricing. - Scott Robinson
Usually 3 or 4 checkout lanes, very inconvenient wait. Most of the help is helpful. Although a dud or two in the mix - Ron Flanigan
They are amazingly fast at filling your scripts if you wait inside for it. They say it'll take 15 minutes, but regularly they get it done WAY under 15 minutes. - Sarah K
