q39 won't sell you BE's

What would a good order be to take back?  Burnt ends or brisket from Bryant's?  Combo?

Brisket and sausage from ABs on Brooklyn. Drive north and get burnt ends from Gates. Boom.

I think I am doing this.

Good decision, I mean they are .5 miles apart. Both have really good food, why not get both?

[pissclams]

that's the best plan

[slobber]

Brisket reheats extremely well.


Gonna win 'em all!

[Skipper44]

I have never shipped it but wouldn't getting the brisket whole (not sliced) make for a better meal?

[Kat Kid]

Potentially an option.  What would that retail at tho?

[Trim]

Are you going to eat a warm meal at one of these places?

[Skipper44]

I don't know but at $13/lb and prolly 10+ for a whole brisket I would need to be hosting a party to justify it.  Maybe call and see if either the legends or brooklyn location has vacuum sealing

had some of this shipped a few months ago, it was pretty damn awful.  Brisket was the least shitty, but it was drenched in sauce.  The ribs were drenched in sauce and pretty much sucked.  The beans were by far the worse, tasted totally different, bad aftertaste.  WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!

KK's uncle should do a couple days in KC going to all these places and getting their best efforts.  Do it at a time when there's no #oscar to eff up his plans.

No this is more like:  "I have a bunch of people taking care of work/domestic things while I am away and I promised them KC BBQ so I am taking some back to distribute as a thank you."

My ABs/Gates plan won't disappoint. JMHO.

That promise works well when visiting Seattle and there's dozens of dudes selling all of the local delicacies in the spot you'll undoubtedly be walking through and who'll pack them up for you in a FAA-approved travel freezer.

OT: I tried googling to see if there's a bbq place in detroit that he could pick up from and claim it's from KC.  Google "detroit bbq."  Apparently the main proprietor up there has social media issues.

aren't Gate's burnt ends just really loosely chopped beef?  like, not cubed?

They take their burnt ends and chop them. I think they are really good that way, plus they have a nice char.

i think it's actually just meat shavings from the cutting block mixed with brisket trimmings.  similar to what you find on the poor russ at jackstack.
in other words, they're cheating and not really serving burnt ends.

q39 used to sell be's by the pound.  i'd get them all of the time.  then they started getting really busy and have taken them off the menu because they can't make enough of them.  you can still get them on the burnt end burger and w/ their mixed combo plate, but that's it.

[Big Sam]

Q39, my experience is that the over cook their stuff just a bit (going for the "fall off the bone" approach).

Like SLAPs, but has some ways to go.

Best chicken (yes, I know, its chicken) I ever had was at the downtown Bryants.

Woodyard can be solid (just remember, you get to sit outside, so ponder your weather/toughness quotient).

Have not been to CharBar.

Now I need to find an excuse to head to KC for some BBQ after reading this thread.  Have about 4 places that have opened in the last 5 months that I have not tried yet.

Only place I get bbq chicken is the trailer outside McGonogles. It's like 3.50 for half a chicken

[star seed 7]
