Friday morning we had one goal - eat some good ol' Kansas City BBQ! We started the day with coffee and yogurt near the hotel and some souvenir shopping, then drove out to the WWI Museum & Memorial which had beautiful views of the city and places to soak up some sun {and wind}. We were on a bit of a time crunch so we quickly headed out to find the bbq, and since Christian is the expert in this area I let him pick his favorite to take me to. We ended up at Joe's Kansas City BBQ {formerly Oklahoma Joe's}, a world famous spot in a gas station that Anthony Bourdain called one of his 13 places to eat before you die - if it's good enough for Tony, it's good enough for me. The line was out the door {obviously a great sign} but once you got inside the gas station counter was selling beers to keep you occupied while waiting to order food. After much debate {and some yummy beer} I decided on the Carolina Pork Sandwich {the pulled pork is their house specialty} with a side of potato salad, and Christian got the Z-Man on Texas toast with a side of burnt ends to share. The food was absolutely delicious {and incredibly filling} and definitely lived up to the hype I've been hearing about since we first started dating. Now, if only we could find some delicious bbq in Seattle.....
in line for line beers
