Who Has the Best BBQ in Kansas City?

Kansas City BBQ might be the most controversial food topic in KC… so I flew out to find out what makes it so special. In this episode, I visit some of Kansas City’s most talked about BBQ spots, including Joe’s Kansas City, Jack Stack, Slap’s BBQ, Hawg Jaw, Meat Mitch, and Scott’s Kitchen. But this trip became about more than just meat and sauce. Along the way, I connected with artists, friends, and people who helped me see why BBQ in Kansas City means so much more than just food. From the BBQ Museum to legendary restaurants, local recommendations, and unexpected moments… this is my Kansas City BBQ journey. What’s your favorite BBQ spot in Kansas City? Comment Below!
