About BB'S LAWNSIDE BLUES AND BBQ


Two foodie words that bring magic to our ears every time include Comfort Food and Barbecue and that is exactly what makes B.B.'s Lawnside Blues & BBQ such an amazing success. Nothing really beats this combination in our eyes (and mouths) and B.B.'s Lawnside Blues & BBQ delivers a good healthy portion of each. What makes this place such as success and every dish a genuine winner on all regards, is that the head Chef and owner regularly wins at BBQ competitions. This level of success under difficult competition in the Barbecue field is impressive and all for you to experience when you visit B.B.'s Lawnside Blues & BBQ for yourselves. Guy took his Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives crew to this Kansas City spot and gave it two thumbs up as did we on our multiple visits. While at B.B.'s Lawnside Blues & BBQ, the Battered Fries and Burnt Ends are always a five-star winner. However, literally every one of their Slow-Smoked Meats especially the Ribs, Sausages and Chicken are amazing. Come for a quick (or long) stop and really experience authentic world-class blues entertainment while you dine - a real treat and atmosphere winner too. The tradition of BBQ, Blues and Kansas City dates back to the early 30's, and the architectural history of this place goes back to the 1950's with an original smoking pit that is used to this day. Other amazing menu options here include their Cornbread, Fried Chicken Sandwich, Smoked Catfish, Burnt Ends Platter, Coleslaw, Smoked Chicken Platter and so much more.
