We used to skip out the back door of Metro Tech Highschool, and go get this BBQ 'scraps' on a brown paper bag Xtra sauce

Fiorella is the best to me , it's been years ago since I've been to Kansas City

If you need to put sauce on it, you ain't letting the meat speak for itself

[@jordanbabcock9349]

Yall funny. Show me a society that did not create a sauce for meat. Yeah, you really can't. Enphasis on the REALLY. Japanese, Italian, Mexican, African... Claim your stake all you want, but you owe dues.

I miss Ricky’s pit

All the places they show I consider commercially owned barbecue now, high priced and not that good. There are much much better smaller places to eat at. Kansas City is my favorite city for barbecue, and I been to all the barbecue regions of this country.
