Wandering in a 10 mile radius

We have been randomizing our dining delights lately - trying to find something new. We like locally owned and so our new ventures are geared to local owned places. Friday we ate at The Big Grill & More on 6th and Sandusky in Kansas City Kansas. We had lunch -  pork sandwich and potato salad for Ric and Ham sandwich and baked beans for me. It comes with fries and a pickle spear.


The building alone will draw you in. The friendliness at the counter will keep you smiling but the food will make you close your eyes and say YUM!


The sandwiches were triple decker so no shortage of meat on old fashioned white bread and slathered with just enough BBQ to be good. Meat is good quality and smoked to perfection. And while all my major meat eating friends will find that alone to be exquisite - you have not got to the best part - the baked beans. We pride ourselves on making baked beans to die for at home - these were just as good. They were sweet, and smoky and delicious. They were the best I have ever had outside of my own kitchen. And then there is the potato salad - it was made with potatoes! Not lots of onion and eggs. The creamy mustardy base was perfect.
This is not fancy - this is the way BBQ should be. Home cooked and delicious!
If you have not been there - you have not had great BBQ in Kansas City. I know, some of you have your favorites - and we have probably been there too but we were very impressed with The Big Grill and will be back! I think their special on Thursday is slabs!
