Joe's Kansas City Bar-B-Que — Olathe
The Atlas Review
The BBQ Atlas
Joe's Kansas City Bar-B-Que does Kansas City barbecue the way it should be done: no reservations, no nonsense, walk in and order.
Joe's Kansas City has smoked barbecue in Olathe since 2006, one of three in the group behind the famous gas-station original. It's walk-ins only — show up, wait your turn, order at the counter. Open eleven to nine most nights, ten on weekends. The competition pedigree, multiple American Royal Grand Championships, is in the brisket.
