 While I'm in Kansas City next week...
...for a job interview, how about a recommendation for a good or great BBQ joint? For three days I'll be able to have American food for a change instead of the usual Asian fare provided by The Wifoid. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! ...and if you care to give me a tour of Olathe and thereabouts, dinner's on me.
Speaking of which, how do y'all prepare your own BBQ (not grilling, mind you, but BBQ) beef or pork? I want to see if I can successfully (?) prepare something that even The Wifoid would like and won't kill us both from food poisoning.

If you are smart you will wait until after the interview to eat a bunch of barbecue...

Sage advice if my interview were to be held on Day 1, but it'll be on Day 3 so I have two days to floss like crazy and pollute the atmosphere.

BBQ comes in three grades: Good, Better, and Best.
Arthur Bryant's and Gates & Sons both trace back to Henry Perry, who started the KC BBQ craze in the early 1900s. It's been almost 30 years since we passed through there and for the life of me can't remember which one it was we visited. But I do remember that I very much liked the sample platter that I tried -- which is saying something for an ol' East NC boy who prefers the vinegar-based sauces.
Run the two through your search engine, looking for reviews. A lot can change in 3 decades.
As for DIY BBQ, sift through the vinegar-base recipies you can find on-line. They're not as cloying as most of the tomato-based ones, and allow the natural flavors of the meat, especially pork, to develop.

Well I think it was Wilbur Harrison that made the song Kansas City famous in about 1960.

KC BBQ in Kansas City. Same people the make KC Masterpiece BBQ sauce you see in the stores. A number of other good BBQ places and a good place for excellent steaks. You can't beat Midwest steaks in KC or Omaha. I also like the vinegar based NC BBQ, like at Wilbers in Goldsboro, NC.

Thanks for the recommendations and suggestions, guys! Well, I guess I'll just have to "pork out" on BBQ for three days. Life is good.
