The 15 Best BBQ Spots In Kansas City, Ranked - Kansas City - The Infatuation

"If you’re in the area visiting William Jewell College or Liberty’s historic downtown, it’d be a mistake not to stop at 3Halves. This brewery and BBQ joint is always packed with professors sitting with students or locals watching a game on TV while hosting a kid’s birthday party. Unlike many BBQ joints, 3Halves is somewhere you can linger—there’s not the usual rush or table hawking happening. Their menu is more than BBQ—the cowboy burger is a perfectly cooked smashburger with bacon, candied jalapeños, and pepper jack—though their burnt ends with wasabi slaw and beef tallow french fries can compete with the stuff at any BBQ joint. Get a flight of sour beers, which will make you feel like you’re in a Warheads commercial." - ryan bernsten
