we were in kcmo over labor day weekend and had some fine food
...but we found a "new" bbq joint by accident
we were down at the city market to see the "arabia" museum,
and saw this little place called "winslow's"
i was skeptical, but was craving burnt ends
VERY WELL RECIEVED
...anybody ever hear of this bunch?

      Winslow's is the moistest, dampest bbq I've had in KC. It isn't a style I've found an affinity for. Everything seem steamed rather than smoked. The service is great as is the location, but try as I might, I just don't get it. Winslow's is in the CIty Market at 5th and Walnut, KCMO.

        all i can comment on was the burnt ends
        they were quite smoky and had a nice crust
        one tourist told another it was the best q he had tried in kc
        ...but he was a tourist [me too]
        the city market [full farmers market, including livestock] was quite the experience
        and is downtown only 3 blocks from the big muddy [missouri river]

          I'm glad you enjoyed our City Market. We go every week. I'm going to give Winslow's another try. You made a good case for the burnt ends! The people who run the place are very nice and hard working.

              I will definitely give Winslows a try since we will be traveling through KC soon. Any other goodies we should look out for?

                i hear tell that kcmo has more bbq joints per capita than any other place.......period
                driving around town or even through the burbs there is a faint smell of wood smoke
                until you get near to a q joint
                there are some places reviewed on this site, but one that is not may well be the best q in kc
                it is JACKSTACK, and you'll find it south of town in martin city
                the star of the show is the bbq baked beans which may well be the best on the planet
                the city market was great, and you would probably enjoy the "ARABIA"
                museum located there
                the arabia is a steambout that went down in the missouri river in the 1850's, and was recovered in the 1980's
