If you decide to ride another 750 for ribs, let me know, I live here in KC, and will let you know where the "best" stuff is!

Try the Rendezvous for ribs in Memphis. They are outstanding. Heavy dry rub crust and cooked perfectly. Mmmmmm...... might have to make that trip again myself.

Hey Chip, I'm coming to KC this week. Won't be on the bike, but that won't stop me from wanting the best ribs I can find. What's your suggestion?

I can see this developing from and good road trip story into a "who's got the better BBQ" debate. I'll enjoying watching and taken notes for future use!

I'll have to do that! We are heading down to Memphis tomorrow morning, it's about time for some good ribs. This should be about 780 miles. But with side trips we are looking at about 3300 mile this weekend. And I will put the Rendezous on our list of place too stop.

Thanks for the suggestion

That's what I was hoping for! So far, though, it sounds like in KC its between Arthur Bryant and Oklahoma Joe's. I thought there might be some other strong opinions out there on Kansas City BBQ. Anyone? Anyone?

Being a resident of Kansas City I can tell you that there's many BBQ places to try out in both KCMO & KCK.

Here's a few of the best, Smokehouse, Arthur Bryant's, Gates, Zarda, Jack Stack BBQ, Rosedale's and Sneed's.

If you're interested in exact locations, PM me and I'll try to help you out.
