Kansas City is the barbecue capital of the world. Here, the best barbecue you can find is in a gas station, where lines frequently snake around the block. All dishes are cooked atop hickory wood, slow and low so that ribs slide right off the bone. The finishing touch is KC’s signature sauce: a thick, smooth combination of molasses, tomato and spices. Locals and visitors indulge in “burnt ends,” one of the most popular regional dishes.
