We'd burn a place like that down here in Kansas City and then smoke some ribs over the fire.

And yet, Dickeys BBQ still exists!

Go Chiefs!!

I honestly don't know how that place is open.

It's the free kiddie cones! Mother fuckers love a free kiddie cone!

But you're right, with Bryant's, L.C.'s, Gates, jackstack, etc.... it's hard to believe they're still around.

Once a good BBQ place turns into a chain, it's all over. It's pretty hard to smoke meat the way you need to for good BBQ across a ton of locations. You need a person running the joint that has such an insane passion for it that they wake up at 4 am to start smoking because they LIKE to. Can't put that in a bottle and sell it across various locations, unfortunately. At least, not cheaply/easily, which is capitalism's whole MO.
