This Hole-In-The-Wall Restaurant In Missouri Is Worth The Drive From Anywhere In The State

Some restaurants earn their reputation through marketing budgets and Instagram filters, and then there’s LC’s Bar-B-Q in Kansas City, Missouri, which earns its reputation the old-fashioned way: through smoke, patience, and meat so good it makes you question every life choice that kept you away this long. If...

USA Today list ranks the best of Kansas City BBQ. Which joint is No. 1?

Declaring the very best version of Kansas City barbecue coming out of the many beloved joints in the metro area is often a futile and controversial task — it depends on one’s preference and the day and time a diner goes to a restaurant, and you best be prepared to defend it. But each year, publications, influencers and anyone online with an opinion tackle the scary job of ranking our barbecue and sharing their findings. USA Today, the national media company that owns newspapers across the country, including in Missouri and Kansas, published the 2026 readers’ choice list of 10 best Kansas City-style BBQ restaurants on Oct. 28. Last year the publication’s readers voted, strangely, to award a non-Kansas City joint (Stateline Road Smokehouse in Napa, California) with the No. 1 spot on a Kansas City BBQ list — though to be fair, owner Darryl Bell is originally from Kansas City. But it seems those readers righted their wrongs, with a Kansas City-based barbecue restaurant earning the most votes to claim the top spot. That best barbecue restaurant is Slap’s BBQ , a KC spot that’s often considered one of the best to ‘cue and has produced a loyal following

Live lobsters, blue crabs, and catfish wait in tanks at a suburban Kansas grocery store. Then there’s the whole roasted duck, cooked fresh every single day. This store covers about 60,000 square feet. That’s a lot of room for custard creme buns, sesame rolls, and hundreds of sauces.

This Old-School Missouri Supper Club Has Been Hand-Cutting Steaks Since 1946

A salad named for the year 1957 still lands on tables at one Missouri steakhouse, and people keep ordering it by name. I love when a menu carries its own birthday like that. The prime rib gets talked about more than anything else here. Carrot cake comes in a strong second, which tells you folks save room.

This Kansas City chef who runs a gourmet butcher shop loves gizzards and burgers

Thanksgiving is, without a doubt, the best food holiday on the calendar. It’s also chef Sarah Nelson’s favorite holiday. This is despite the fact that she is put to work on Thanksgiving, given her skill set. “I actually negotiated with my family this year a way for us to do just family gatherings on Thanksgiving, and then do an actual sit-down meal on Black Friday so I can actually enjoy it and not try to be catching up with family while I’m doing all the food,” Nelson said. The holiday is a favorite, she said, because it brings all the comfort foods she enjoys onto the table for one glorious day of gorging. She happens to have access to some of those foods, given that she runs a butcher shop and gourmet grocery store in the Northland with her husband, Louis Guerrieri, the duo that also used to run the Ombra restaurant before it closed in late 2024. Carne Diem just celebrated its second anniversary of being open in the Village at Briarcliff, providing its customers a whole-animal butchery of Missouri-sourced meats like Angus beef, lamb, duck and more. What it means to be a whole animal butchery is to

Popular OP antique furniture booth moving to new Brookside shop: ‘Really beautiful'

A popular antique furniture and interior design store that was previously a booth inside a Johnson County antique mall, is moving to its own storefront this week. Hydrangea House , which has over 11,000 social media followers, opened inside the Glenwood Antique Mall at 9030 Metcalf Ave in Overland Park last year. Mother and daughter duo Jessica Carpenter and Abigail Gaughan initially got a 164-square-foot booth and quickly expanded to a 2,000-square-foot space to better serve shoppers looking for curated vintage furniture and carefully reupholstered couches and chairs. “We just want to sit and talk to people, and it’s really hard to do that in an antique mall. If you’ve ever tried, it’s very challenging to have a conversation with somebody and sit down with them and talk to them about their house,” said Gaughan, the owner of Hydrangea House. Carpenter, the Hydrangea House’s Chief Creative Officer, is an interior designer by trade. Customers regularly seek her advice on anything from basic interior design tips to what color to paint a house’s exterior. “We have somebody who drives from Iowa the first weekend of every month to come see us, and she’s just adorable,” she said. Gaughan and Carpenter came
