Me and my fiancés favorite bbq in KC. They have more than one location and they are all good! Poutine on the winter menu is to die for.

Located in Westport. Great spot for Saturday lunch. They have an awesome patio space as well. I’ve never had anything here I didn’t like - my go to is the Fried Green Tomatoes and CBGB burger.
