Papa Bob’s Bar-B-Que of Bonner Springs!
The Big Destroyer Take a half-pound of pulled pork and a half-pound of hickory-smoked sliced pork on a 12-inch hoagie bun. Top that with sauce, two slices of bread and then a half-pound of hickory-smoked turkey breast. Follow that with a half-pound of ham, sauce and two more slices of bread, then three half-pound hickory smoked hamburgers with more sauce and more bread, brisket, sausage, sauce and bun. http://media.kansascity.com/sm...rod_affiliate.81.jpg |

I second papa bobs bar-b-que in Bonner Springs. It is just located outside of Kansas City where it truly is a hole in the wall but it serves some of the best barbque in the Kansas City area. Since their opening they have had the destroyer sandwich but last month, they just recently introduced the ultimate destroyer sandwich. Here is the link to their resturant and for the ultimate destroyer

I would have to agree Papa Bobs BBQ and the ultimate destroyer. Adam you will meet your match with that Sandwich. The place is worth a missouri boy driving 25+ miles to go eat.

Please come to Kansas City. The best barbecue is at Oklahoma Joe's. The restaurant is in a gas station. The pulled pork is awesome and the fries are the best I've ever eaten.

Wheat State Pizza, Pittsburg Originally posted by: bigdavo75 I work at Wheat State and we have The Gorilla Pizza which is a 24" Wheat Crust Pizza and it weighs 9 pounds (with your choice of toppings). The Gorilla Challenge is wear you eat this Huge pizza in One Hour and you win the the cash money that has built up with every loss. Only Two People have ever beat it and we would love for Adam to try to take it on. |

I second Oklahoma Joe's. Best BBQ in the midwest. Won a bunch of championships at BBQ competitions and then opened a storefront in a gas station. Smokie Joe is awesome! Definitely have to hit Stroud's for fried chicken also, a Kansas City tradition. I'm not sure what the 'pig out' location would be, but the first two should be Okie Joe's and Stroud's.

You MUST try The Ultimate Destroyer Challenge at PaPa Bob's BBQ in Bonner Springs KS. Since it was created, NO ONE has come close to win the challenge. If you LOVE great smoked meat with OUTSTANDING KC Style BBQ sauce, you CANNOT pass on The Ultimate Destroyer. Not to mention that Papa Bob is one of the nicest owners you have EVER met. Thank you for your time

FYI, there is a Wheat State Pizza in Kansas City, Kansas too and it is awesome. The wheat crust is soft and very tastes wonderful but the toppings are fantastic also. CHECK IT OUT! |

Not only does Kansas City have some of the best steak and rib places but I would love to see Man vs Food at the tailgate party at a Chiefs game!
