Burnt ends, ribs and brisket smoked slow and low for hours – this is the heart and soul of Kansas Citians stomachs. Although Kansas City has grown into a metropolis which includes much more than a menu of smoked meats, its national recognition resides in the barbecue business. Kansas City’s barbecue roots began much earlier than the recognizable restaurants of today. A small cart pushed near the Garment District in 1908 by an African American named Henry Perry is purported to be the beginning of Kansas City’s barbecue fame.

If u can make good brisket then u have room to brag. My neighbor gave me a brisket and it was completely rare. I had to bake it. He was a little crazy.

I have to admit, I've been to KC a few times, but never stopped and tried a BBQ place. Living 2 1/2 hours south of KC doesn't make it convenient. We do however; continue to learn how to smoke and prepare our own farm raised pork and rabbit meat. Give us another couple of years, and we'll be raising our own beef, as long as we get bull calves.
