There’s just no way it gets any better than this. I’ve toured the states for great BBQ and Joel at Danny Edwards does it best. Brisket is insane. The Big D (I got it on a bun) is simply the greatest sandwich of any kind I’ve ever had. The ribs are fall off the bone tender, juicy and loaded with flavor. Just doesn’t get any better. Thank you to Joel and his wife for the incredible food and service!!

First-time eating here and let me tell you they didn’t disappoint. I had the large pork sandwich and they gave me enough pulled pork to make another sandwich. The pork was very tender and favorable. The sauce was on point…sweet and spicy. I even enjoyed the fries. Well done and truly a treasure in KC

Let’s get this out of the way right out of the gate. Best beef brisket in KC! Sliced thick, super juicy, and full of flavor! ‘The Big D’ is a fantastic sandwich that highlights the brisket on marble rye with cheese and an onion ring. I’m not sure there is a better BBQ sandwich anywhere. The BBQ beans are also very tasty. During colder months I’ve had the chili here and it’s absolutely top notch. Served with warm tortillas! This place is only open for lunch but definitely worth a try as I feel like it gets overlooked in KC’s crowded BBQ scene!

The spicy beans were incredible! I would come back just for those. All of the smoked meats were good, but the ribs were pretty bland. The family running the place was super nice. They open a little bit earlier than some of the other places in town so it’s nice if you are trying to get an earlier lunch.

This is an update review, I liked it the last time I was there and this time everything was great. I had the brisket sandwich and the meat was tender and great. Last time I was not a fan of their baked beans but this time they were great. The beans are different than what I am use to but we’re good. Previously I had their combo sandwich and it was great too. The service was great and they were all very friendly.

I wasn’t sure about it pulling up with the red bars on the windows but so glad we tried it. Amazing food. Fast even though they were busy! Definitely plan to be back.

I dare say there is no finer brisket in the KC Metro area. They cut it right off the roast by hand using a butcher knife. Each slice easily a quarter inch, and with a nice bark. A large beef sandwich is absolutely decadent and there is scarcely a better sandwich in the metro. Get here for lunch as they are not open for dinner! (and closed Sundays) The guys that run this place have been in the BBQ biz a long time and it shows. They care a great deal about their craft and produce some of the finest in the metro.

We all had the pork bbq sandwich. The meat had a wonderful Smokey flavor. I loved the fresh cucumber salad I had and my son’s Mac and cheese was delish! My husband said his french fries were really good as well. I enjoyed the hometown feel of the restaurant. The staff were all so friendly. So glad that we stopped by!

Meh. Meat was nothing special, dare I say bland? *Full disclosure, I eat my meat plain, sans sauce.* I prefer Jack Stack or Q39 over this BBQ. It was Better than Gates though! Their Jumbalya was tasty. As always, Tell’em OuttaTown Tony sent you!
