Joe's Kansas City BBQ - Best BBQ in the USA!

Kansas City is the BBQ capital of the USA. This city has some of the best BBQ restaurants on the planet and the one that stands above them all is Joe's Kansas City BBQ (formerly known as Oklahoma Joe's) - and yes they serve burnt ends, brisket, pulled pork, and the divine Z-Man sandwich out of an old Shamrock Gas Station. Even Anthony Bourdain touted Joe's as one of the 13 places to eat on Earth before you die. This is BBQ at its best and a must stop in Kansas City.

Each bbq joint has pros and cons but it’s still way better than fast food holes. Sauce or not who cares. But all of these folks work their tails off making massive amount of darn good grub. Hats off to all bbq joints.

Joes IS the best in America! Delicious.

[Aimtoplease]

The Carolina pulled pork Sammy is my go to there! Along with them tender burnt ends baby!!

[OneMansOdyssey]

Damn, that’s good looking food. Your wait isn’t so bad when you read some people line up at 4 AM for some of the Texas BBQ places!

[bennygilbert]

You know Erik, making a series out of traveling and trying BBQ from various places on your travels doesn't sound like a bad idea...

[nick_right]

I live in Texas, and I am from Kansas City. Not doubt Texas has good BBQ, but it doesn't touch Kansas City.

Ive lived in kansas city mo over 54 years, you can't try all the BBQ joints thats how many there is in the metro area. And i make a lip smacking hamburger thats smoked
It is so good its best with nothing on it ecpt cheese and the bbq sauce i cook on it at the grill.
Ive been cooking bbq since i was 10

Oh best beans, LC OFF 64TH STREET by the zoo. In kansas city
The rest of the bbq is good too.
But ive had bbq that sucks too.

I’m 3 hours away from this place may be worth the drive 👀

[carlsnyder]

It’s not even the best bbq in KC. It’s famous because Anthony Bourdain once listed it as one the top 9 restaurants in the world. People are impressed that it’s good while being in a convenience store. It’s just beats expectations

[josephlichtenberger]

or order online and skip the line lol good vid

[WillyK]

Absolutely Joe's is good. However, it's not the best in the US much less KC. I'll put Arthur Bryant's up against any other BBQ place in town.

[heathkeim]

I’ve been here a few times. It’s excellent, but I don’t think it deserves the best in KC much less the best in the world. Maybe top ten.

Franklin’s. Corkscrew. Amazing Texas BBQ.
