The first time I was there was sometime in January or February. It was really slow but they seemed busy. Had a waitress give us a plate of someone else’s food. When we told her she just took the plate and put it on the table next to us after sitting in front of us a couple minutes. Thought that was probably a big no no in food service. We were probably there an hour and a half from time we were seated at table to getting check. Second time was more of same. Wait staff just very disorganized. Food both times was very good though.
Right off Valley West Drive and EP True Parkway in the little strip mall.
Was going to stop but family wanted Raising Kane’s. I lost out.

Battles on Hayward with about room for 14 people was AMAZING.
George had blues playing, great meats, texas toast.
Big Daddy was a character. If you'd donate a couple bucks to charity, March of Dimes or whatever it was, he'd bring over a slice of pie to ya and shoot the ****.
We gave some money to his charity to try some of his super hot sauce. It was a huge mistake. My buddy puked and I thought I needed to go to the hospital. The best part is that he talked us out of doing one of his cash challenges. A sandwich with that on it could have killed someone.

One more KC area fav - the pulled pork at Brobeks in Overland Park. Best we've had outside of east Tennessee.
The sauce at that time was called the Survivor (he told me because he liked the TV show).
He had a challenge. You had to put up some money, have you and your lawyer read/sign a waiver, and attempt to eat the sandwich. If you won, he gave you something like $10k, if you lost your entry fee went to charity.
A good man for sure.
I had it last weekend. At first glance it is a little on the pricier side of other restaurants but the portions are very generous. Was told that their ribs are the star but the people in front of me bought them out, so I went with the sausage and a beef sandwich. Sausage was right up there with some of the best I've had. Sandwich was very good, but the star was the rub that they used to season their buns.
I love Kue'd. Like big time. Can't compare the 2 in my opinion even though they are both BBQ joints. Kue'd is constantly rotating the menu and putting their twist on traditional favorites. Pork Belly BLT , Kue'd Mi, and the Pho Kue'd for example.
At UNRVLD the meat is the star. And it is very good. I look forward to seeing if/how they keep their menu "fresh". Seems like a place I would enjoy dining in more once that is an option as well.

Dalmation Rub for bbq Chix is pretty much a Texas thing http://tipsforbbq.com/Definition/Dalmatian-Rub Kentucky, Tennessee plus ten other states are in the south and have great BBQ chicken. Good stuff. By the way the best bbq bird I ever had was a lime marinated Cayenne pepper rub in Texas.

Just my opinion but Jack Stack is the chain of the KC big 4. Better than Gate's but nothing to write home about,
We picked up brisket, ribs and Mac & cheese a couple weekends ago. We are Kue'd regulars and were pleased with UNRVLD! I liked both the ribs and brisket equally, but my wife raved about the brisket and said it was the best she's ever had! BBQ sauce was unique and awesome too. I thought the mac & cheese was just average. Thought next time we'd just pick up meat and do our own sides at home. Disappointing that they're not open during the week.
I was disappointed at first that they didn't offer burnt ends but after tasting the brisket, who cares!

I thought the same until I went to Rolling Smoke in Pleasant Hill. Better and way more consistent than D's
Think they opened about 2 years ago after they won prize money from a contest. They've had a catering side for 6 years or so hence their name. I look forward to trying Unrvld
Went today and I have never had better brisket. Kue’d brisket and Unrvld are kind of different but both excellent. Little
Pricy but I got a 1/2 pound of brisket, Mac and cheese and baked beans for around 20 bucks. It was enough for lunch and supper so it’s totally worth it. Plus, seeing Big Play and Jackson preparing it with Cyclone gear on is cool.
