If I gave you 50 guesses of what the highest-rated barbeque places in the Kansas City, Missouri area were, I’d be surprised if even half of your list agreed with what Yelp reviewers think are the best choices. As a matter of fact, their number one choice floored me and might you, too.
I want to be clear how I queried Yelp to find the highest-rated BBQ places in the Kansas City, Missouri area. I made sure to select “highest-rated” instead of “recommended” and I didn’t apply any other feature filters. I believe that the reviews default to restaurants that allow takeout, so that might also be a factor. With all that being said, here are the top 10 BBQ places in the Kansas City area according to all the Yelp “experts”.
