Off-Topic: OKie Joe's Makes Anthony Bourdain's top 13 places to eat before you die.

by Official Arrowhead Pride Parade on Jun 10, 2009 3:45 PM CDT

From next month's Men's Health

13. Oklahoma Joe's Barbecue (Kansas City)

People may disagree on who has the best BBQ. Here, the brisket (particularly the burnt ends), pulled pork and ribs are all of a quality that meet the high standards even of Kansas City natives.

It's the best BBQ in Kansas City, which makes it the best BBQ in the world.

Anthony Bourdain is the host of the Travel Channel's 'No Reservations.'

Guess, that leave's 12 more for THE PARADE. St. John's in London is next, our money is that they don't stack up to the Hog Heaven.

Even their fries

are worth writing home about. Oklahoma Joe’s is where it’s at.

Yo Parade

If you don’t mind me asking, what’s your connection to the KC area?

The PARADE sold out years ago

And moved to the east coast.

The PARADE is dead to Kansas City.

He grew up there

Tried to tell me once he grew up “hard.” I reminded him he grew up with a fountain in his pool.

It will only take me 11 hours to get there...

Maybe I should tell my boss I’m taking the rest of the day off for BBQ. I’m sure he would understand.

Honestly. It’s about two hours before dinner but I am thinking about going.

MMMMmmm, Okie Jooooe's

If there were only one closer to me… (mutters under his breath)

Ah well, at least I have a Gates right down the street. It’ll satisfy the jones’in for BBQ I got from reading this.

I could get more sacks with my sack

If you got a Gates close

then you’ve got an OK Joe’s close enough. Don’t even gimme that…
