A top notch BBQ joint in the most competitive market place has managed to stand out and thrive in Kansas City by producing a quality product in a unique atmosphere. I enjoyed a big beef sandwich with beans and fries very much and my friends had beef and ham. Easy to find with plenty of free parking. Everything was excellent especially the folks who own and operate this great restaurant. Very helpful, friendly and informative. Thank you for serving up a great meal in a fun environment, I will be back soon to try your burnt end chili, it sounds great! Jeannette and I brought a friend here for lunch yesterday and she shared some of the chili with us and it was also excellent.
Ordered 2-meat and 1-meat plates. Quantity was great. Meats were tender and hot. Cheesy corn was awesome. Prices in-line with competition. Highly recommend.
Tried their ribs and snuck in a little burnt ends by having their chili on the side. My other side was their cheesy corn. The burnt ends were good and moist. Having them bathing in chili probably helped. The solid pieces on top of the chili were good. The pieces mixed into the chili made the mixture thick. Lots of beans made this some food chili. Not sure why it made the bucket list of things to eat before you die. I’m glad I had it, but it didn’t change my life. The ribs on the other hand… maybe not life-changing either, but very good. Their spice rub was exotic. Not your usual fare. Something maybe Indian was in there, Tumeric or something. It gave the ribs a distinct and unique flavor. Definitely setting them apart from all the other BBQ in town. The cheesy corn was cheesy corn. I’m not sure what I’m missing about this side dish. Everywhere I’ve tried it, it all been about the same. It’s corn in a sauce that’s kind of cheesy, but not sharp or anything. Just kind of plain. If you like cheesy corn, this will meet your expectations.
The food was amazing, I absolutely loved the burnt ends and the brisket was really good. I ended up getting a 2 meat sandwich that I 3/4 pulled apart and ate separately. Mine had brisket and burnt ends, I got a side of coleslaw and a single spare rib. The rib on the rib was a bit thick for me, but when paired with some sauce it was good. The actual meat on the rib was amazing. The side of slaw was nice, juicy and tasty. It had a pretty standard flavor with a bit of pepper for bite. The guys I went with enjoyed their sandwichs,one had the 3 P's, and another had a single meat sandwich.
We were more than excited to come to a triple D location. Our food was meh..cold... poor quality and not worth an extra drive and 80$. Meat was all cold and the brisket had no smoke flavor at all. Very sad.
The burnt ends at this place is terrible. I told the people when I ordered to make it lean as possible, less fat. When I received my order fat was everywhere. And they put a lot of nasty sauce on it to hide the meat texture which made it extremely salty. I couldn't finish the meal, it was that horrible. I cannot speak to the rest of the food that's being sold at this particular place, I can only speak about what I ordered and received. It was the worst burnt ends in the country.
I only come to KC every couple of years. When I do I expect the best BBQ in the country. Did not get it this time. This was locally recommended. 7 of us ate spare ribs, brisket, ham, turkey, burnt ends, chili. Meat was all thin sliced and cold, even when getting a plate meal. Burnt ends were fatty and not tender. Chili was blah. Sides were homemade but not creative. Not one of us was impressed. I had home cooked BBQ baby backs in Manhattan, KS a few days before that was a completely better story. Proving one again that going out to eat is for the unimaginative.
We wanted to try it out while in KC. I had the pulled pork yum and the brisket pretty bland. Hubby had the ribs and said they were "alright". Our friend had a pulled pork sandwich and his bread was slightly stale, but the pork was good. We shared the cheesy corn and beans and they were really good. We sat inside, but had flies and bees to contend with. Sadly, it didn't meet our expectations.
Great bbq restaurant that's good a chill vibe and some damn good ribs. I also had the pulled pork and really enjoyed that as well. Worth buying the second rack you might have on your mind.
We’ve had a lot of BBQ in KC and this is now definitely a top pick for us now! Their food has an amazing smoke flavor! Huge portions. Their fries are crispy and perfect!
