This was the worst and nastiest I've ever had in the City.. BBQ Brisket and Beef sandwiches both were so extremely dry and tasted horrible the ham had no flavor and sides were bearable as were the sauces. We couldn't hardly eat the meat at all and saved it for the dog. Won't return definitely not the BBQ joint for me. Only reason you'd eat here is because you can't afford good BBQ.

Wow. Real Kansas City take on burnt ends! This is exactly the type of friendly, tasty local BBQ joint you want to eat at while in Kansas City. Sure, there are a lot of mainstream stops in this part of the world but why not experience something special. The staff was very friendly and the food came out quickly was hot and portioned generously. One note - ask for the Hot Mistress BBQ sauce. It’s delicious and infused with ghost pepper oil. This sauce adds some nice heat to the food.

First timer. Got the 1/4 chicken & fries as the Saturday special. The drumstick was a little dry, but the thigh was good. Fries were great. Friendly staff and comfortable seating
