By the time we got to Brobeck's we were too full to eat. I nibbled on the ham salad and still wish I had eaten more. This was at the other table. They did not share.

LC's Bar-B-Q LC's Barbecue was my favorite barbecue of the crawl. These ribs were about the best I have ever eaten. Good burnt ends and some mystery meat at the bottom, too.

A quick run to Danny Edward's followed the City Market. Many of our stops in Kansas City seemed closely spaced, but required freeway transit and abrupt lane changes to exit to the left. We arrived safely. We all got about the same thing. Ribs and burnt ends were excellent. Pie Diva chose a...

Ricky's was another barbecue stop where they seemed excited to have the Roadfood Family visit them. Like Jone's, Ricky's was located in Kansas and is minority owned. I don't know if either of those attributes was a factor in the welcomes we received. We came for barbecue, but left loving the...

Schlotz offered his one spare brewery tour ticket to Bobbi & me. The kind folks at Boulevard Brewing allowed us both in with the one ticket. We've done many brewery tours and this was one of the best. I was unaware of the brewery's size and the huge variety of both ales and lagers (ciders, too!)...

Jone's Bar-B-Q Sausage, ribs, briskets, and butts... Jones BBQ in Kansas City, Kansas (Free State) offers the best of everything. I think I liked the burnt ends at Jones best.

SLAP's BBQ I was in transit on Thursday and did not arrive at our hotel until 11:00 that night. Fortunately, my devoted Roadfood friends and fans left burnt offerings in my honor. This feast from Slaps BBQ was waiting when I got there. I loved that spicy sausage. That is PieDiva's photo. I...

We arrived at the legendary Arthur Bryant's before their scheduled opening. The counters were empty and most of us did not understand how unusual that was. While the rest of us were trying to get our bearings, BuddyRoadhouse took the bull by the horns and the pig by the squeal and ordered...

Jamie, I'm glad you asked. I'll send an email to your old Yahoo account with a specific request. Jim

Jamie, Are you familiar with the index I put together of the recipes from all of your Weber cookbooks? I put the spreadsheet together after tiring of paging through all of your books looking for recipes. We often buy meat or fish by sight, then get home and try to figure out what to do with...

Hello again Jamie, It is a welcome sign that Summer is right around the corner when your books are released each year. One of my favorite recipes from you came as a Weber Recipe of the Week, or something other than a book. Chipotle-Citrus Shrimp with Sour Cream Dipping Sauce is fantastic...

Clint, I've got my eye on the Mongolian Beef. Making 2 recipes makes sense, the calorie count for the chicken was very low. Jim

Clint, The Sesame Chicken turned out great. We liked it better than the version we usually get from our local carryout place. Thank you for posting this. Jim

Floris, Welcome to TVWBB. I was fortunate to travel to Mons earlier this year and enjoyed my short visit. Perhaps you can educate us about your nation's great beers as you learn from those here about barbecue. Jim

Apologies up front, I am posting this way too late for almost everyone. But on the outside chance that someone has the time, interest and resources, I'm inviting you to a Barbecue Crawl of Kansas City from April 20 to 23. The crawl has been in planning at Roadfood.com for the better part of a...

Jeff, Your photography skills rival (or exceed) your skills with the grill. You are gifted with a great eye for composition, Jim

Just for grins, this is what I got when I ordered Korean BBQ in Japan last month. Nothing like what I was expecting.

Len, I'm on a business trip at The Japan Steel Works. I received a private tour of the traditional Samurai swordsmith shop that they maintain. The Master explained the process to me through an interpreter while his apprentice forged cores for new swords. (Speaking of The Apprentice, this gives...

I finally have a picture worth posting. At the Japanese Sword Smithy on Hokkaido.
