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

"Slap’s, like Joe’s, is another KCK BBQ spot with long lines and counter service, but what makes it stand out are the sauces. Their spicy sauce is traditional BBQ with a kick, while the sweet one tastes overwhelmingly like honey, and we have indeed seen people drinking them like they’re cocktails. We prefer putting the sauces on the Mike Johnson sandwich that combines brisket, jalapeño sausage, and white sauce on a pretzel bun, or dipping some hush puppies or fries in them instead. Get here when they open at 11am, as food starts to run out after lunch (with burnt ends being the first to go)." - ryan bernsten
