11 Essential Kansas City Foods to Eat on Your Next Trip - AFAR
"One of the city’s original barbecue chains (founded in 1946) with an unpretentious, meat-forward menu where local ordering rituals matter. The signature burnt ends—crispy, fatty brisket morsels—are the must-order item, and the fries are frequently touted as the best among Kansas City barbecue spots. Expect straightforward service, classic presentation (meat on trays or bread), and old-school barbecue flavor." - Caitlin Morton
