Burnt End BBQ in Crown Center

Decent bbq, and dog friendly which was a hard find in the city. Their burnt ends were really good, and that's coming from a Texan who believes good bbq is only ribs and brisket. They bear Slaps by a long shot, so I hope this spot gets more love. Great job!

Stopped in here to give it a try after visiting Union Station and Crown Center. The service was a little slow but well worth it once we received our food. Had the St Louis Rib plate with spicy slaw and Mac and cheese. Was excellent. Clearly a little below the stars of Kansas City BBQ but good for the location and the convenience. Would come back again and try other things. The highlight was being able to eat and see all the Christmas activities just outside the restaurant.

Overall, a solid first visit. We got right in on a Saturday evening, and Sergio gave us quick and friendly service. My beef brisket was very good, but short of being great. Rice and veggies were fresh. My wife liked her pulled pork but didn't like the smoked sausage at all. I tasted the smoked sausage - not great - cold and kinda grainy.

1st time visitor. Best BBQ beans I have had in KC. Sandwich was good but undersized for the hype and price. Baked potatoes salad was tasteless. Server was very nice and changed our seat so we could see the game.

Please don’t eat here. The fried cornbread makes fast food French toast sticks taste gourmet. I knew it wouldn’t be that great based on the reviews. But I didn’t know it would be this bad. The burnt ends were dry and chewy. It was a sorry excuse for food. Please eat anywhere else.
