Im going to K.C. next month to take my wife to some "so you think you can dance show." She is a dancer ( not the naked pole kind unfortunately) and i gotta do things like this every so often to make her happy. The girl who won this year is quite hott tho.... Anyway I digress, I will be looking for the most out of the way run down BBQ shack I can find , in the daylight of course. (K.C. has some pretty scary parts of the city.) We took a couple wrong turns last time we were in KC and passed a run down place that had old sign out front that just said BBQ. Went in and holy crap was in freakin delicious.

Alright so I went here today for lunch at 11:00. Got service right away and probably waited 2 minutes for my meal. Very prompt and very friendly people.
I ordered a large pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw and cornbread for sides. Also ordered a coke and got all this for $13 (a little on the expensive side if you ask me).
As it was said previously, the bun was not toasted so it got soggy very quickly. It doesnt come with sauce so I took 2 little cups and tried 2 of the BBQ sauces they had on the side. I had the house sauce which was extremly good and I ended up pouring it on my sandwich. All the pork that fell out of the bun was scooped up with a fork and dipped in the "apple something BBQ sauce" . That sauce was a little to sweet for me but was still decent. The biggest problem I had with the sauces were that they were really cold. Must have just came out of the fridge. It cooled down the pork way to much.
The sandwich comes with coleslaw on top so I highly recommend not ordering coleslaw as a side as its just too much coleslaw. The coleslaw worked well on the sandwich but didnt not live up to my expectation as a side dish. It wasnt a mayo based slaw which meant it was heavy on the vinegar and celery spice. I did not finish it, just not what I am looking for in a decent slaw.
The cornbread was amazing. Probably the best I have ever had. It was a decent size, flakey and soft. It almost wasnt considerd cornbread..it was almost a cake. So delicate and delicious. Put some icing on the top of it and give it to me for my birthday and Id be a happy man.
Overall I'd give it a 7/10. My meal was expensive considering I am not full at the end of the meal. I will be going back to try the other items and sauces though.

You should be a judge on BBQ Pitmasters I think it is called, another show I saw last night, about BBQ'ing, and it has eliminations. The 3 judges, were really concerned about the slaw they got with their bbq.

Just got back from there. It's just around the corner from where I work so I'm there a couple of times a week. Place seemed busier than usual. Must have been full of CPer's.

I had the small beef brisket, side slaw and a Pop Shoppe Root Beer and paid $9. The brisket was good and very moist, and since I prefer non toasted buns I was really happy with my meal. One of the cooks recommended the Jack Daniels BBQ sauce with the brisket which tasted good but I preferred the Hot Mama sauce (the middle of 3 levels of hotness) with my sandwich.
Like Auldy said, the Slaw is not mayo based but I still found it really good.
One of the lads with us had 8 ribs ($1 each) and he thought they were fantastic - better than most of the other places he's had ribs in the city but not as good as some place he's been in Montreal.
The 'goth' (blue highlights) girl working the till was stoked to hear that there was a thread on here about their place - her name tag says "Peaches" and she's a pretty friendly gal. One of the cooks who has the name tag 'Billy Bob' said that Rhett Warrener and Rene Borque are frequent customers there.
I'll go back next week to check out the ribs this time - BBQ is a heavy lunch but I think the return trip is worth the sleepy afternoon at my desk.
7/10
PS - the guy who had 8 ribs is a big rugby player and he said he had room for maybe 2 more ribs - hopefully that will help people choose how many they want to buy.

Just eating my brisket sami back at the office - had to drive down and get some take out after reading this thread. The sandwich is ok but the ribs I'm having for dessert look better.
The ribs turned out to be pretty good. I think its time for a nap now - the large brisket sandwich (with beans & slaw) and 6 ribs may have been a bit much.

I think the slaw is just as important as the BBQ sauce. So pivital.
Man I cant get over how good that cornbread was....
I saw Peaches there as well. Nice body.

Ya, that cornbread was fantastic! I'm so used to it being dry, but like a previous poster said, this stuff was like cake.
Peaches friend was kinda cute too...she must be new
