Kansas City the mecca of barbecue we’re eating our way through the city in America’s Heartland
following only locals recommendations yo you’ll have to try this real barbecue ice
the man is 14 minutes let’s see if they know what they’re talking about [Music]
oh my God
this thing is awesome this is what they call a Mochi donut and it reminds me a lot of a Dutch
olive oil like the inside is much more doughy than a regular donut but the outside does taste
like a chocolate donut oh this thing’s amazing so of course we had to start our
day at Black Hole Bakery and you might think it’s weird that we’re starting a Kansas City
video without barbecue don’t worry we’re gonna have that later but it’s just that everyone in
our neighborhood everyone said try Black Hole Bakery so naturally that was our first stop and
we’re also at our locals rack this is called Lou spark and it’s a really beautiful Park
oh my God
no um
this is brilliant they’re so gooey on the inside I don’t understand how they do it and you can like
really taste the cardamom this is probably the best I don’t think I don’t think I would call
it a donut but probably the best I’ve ever had that’s what donut yeah great start Kansas City
two of the combo plates both of them with ribs and then one with brisket and one with
the sausage and then an order of mac and cheese yeah nice nice thank you guys right
now we are at q39 this is probably the most recommended place in all of Kansas City it’s
a very famous barbecue Giant and Ken city does one thing very very well and that is barbecue
I can’t wait to eat this it smells so good this place is very Lively I got ribs right in
front of me I’m like shaking in anticipation I’m very hungry and excited time to dig in
oh yeah
oh my goodness no this is awesome
this recommendation was on point I was a little bit anxious if we didn’t like it
we just get completely roasted and kicked out of Kansas City but these pork ribs are just so
so tender just fall off the bone the barbecue sauce is awesome I want to live here [Music]
it’s confirmed 239 totally lives up to the hype this place is awesome
I’m just you may have noticed a few things missing from our order but don’t worry this
is not the only time that we’re gonna have barbecue in this video bye thank you [Music]
okay I think this is a great opportunity to tell you guys how amazing the people here are right the
nicest people I’ve ever met in a reasonably big city yeah yeah so it’s crazy we love Kansas City
thank you
I’m not from the US so I don’t know anything about American football but I do know Kansas
City and I know Patrick Mahomes so that says a lot about their team because they’re super
famous and also Gordon’s giving me a face behind the camera I know the Dolphins pins up whatever
but yeah I like Patrick my home is the same size
all right good
so right now we are in messenger coffee shop in the crossroad neighborhood and the crossroads
neighborhood is famous for a thing that happens the first Friday of every month in the summer
and it’s packed with concerts and tons of people today is Saturday and there’s basically nobody
here I think it’s more of like a downtown kind of neighborhood where people don’t really hang out
during the weekends but anyway this coffee shop is very cool very highly recommended
they have delicious copy I can confirm that and they also have something that I was looking for
everywhere Kansas City is famous for something called a cheese slipper I had never heard of a
cheese slipper before coming to Kansas City but I found a cheese slipper let me unveil this baby
I bet it tastes like cheese and bread I’m very cheesy
just to be clear I’m not hungry at all it’s like a brioche with cheese
on top jalapeno and some other cheese I think it would be better if I reheated it
so we toasted our cheese slipper that smells much better now it’s nice and hot
I’ll give this thing a second try at the coffee shop I called it a brioche
that’s because I don’t know what things are called but I think it’s more like a
ciabatta topped with cheese and again some other cheeses in there jalapeno
that’s fine I was holding it so as you probably expected it is much much better
after you reheat it and if you eat through the middle or eat the middle part there’s actually
the jalapeno jalapeno bits and different types of cheeses it’s pretty enjoyable cheese slippers
people oh and if you’re wondering what we’re doing in someone else’s home right now [Music] natural
this is the reason why we are in Kansas City this is our little doggy so we are hosting we are
trusted house sitters so probably if you’re around here you don’t know what we do but we full-time
travel mostly internationally and when we come back to the us we stay with our families and we
do trusted house sitters so we can catch up with work and that’s how we got all the amazing local
recommendations here in Kansas City because their host told us where to go and our neighbors told us
where to go so that’s why we know all The Insider tips and Clarence is going to tell you something
Tom Clarence according are the best trusted house sitters
subscribe to their Channel who would look alike
yeah stick your tooth out yeah
popular spot I think this is going to take a while I hope it’s worth it
we know that you guys were filming like we were done eating yeah you want to take a tour
in the back we’d love to oh I know it show you some of the warmers and stuff yeah please come
up from here and we’ll get a manager and we’ll show y’all appreciate it thank you
we told you guys we would be having barbecue again and here we are and probably the most
iconic spot in all of Kansas City trying the most iconic barbecued food from Kansas City
burnt ends I can’t wait we’ve been waiting all day for this and it looks delicious so burnt
ends are kind of like the leftovers from the brisket so brisket is usually a slice but the
tips are too burnt to slice and too fatty and that’s kind of what they sell here in
Kansas City and it’s a specialty but we douse in barbecue sauce and it’s time to pop them in
they’re really good
that’s where they are no they’re really good
I was expecting way more of like a Char because they’re called burnt ends but they’re not too
burnt at all just like super juicy fatty flavorful the barbecue sauce is really good
so this place obviously also takes barbecue very seriously but we were told to order
the burnt ends and the sandwich that you can only find here it’s called the Seaman
I don’t know how I’m gonna go in because you can see the layers of brisket onion
rings cheese barbecue sauce in a fresh bun looks amazing and this is the small
version too I can’t imagine how big the jumbo one is I’m just gonna go in
huh
what I love too is there’s people getting gas right there a little bit extra barbecue tasty baby
burnt ends what’s up Kansas City what’s up
it’s so good
my favorite city in America
uh-huh are you up here three downstairs I’ll run you guys downstairs take you
down yeah it smells so good oh yeah it smells amazing
we’re at some sacred place in Kansas City right now the back room at Joe’s
before the magic happens that was so cool I was expecting to see meat
but we just saw the smokers and that was really cool
because we’re almost the last ones here the line is done there’s no more Meats than the smoker
so that was cool another proof that people here [Music] and awesome because this has only
happened to us a handful of times in our travels I think this is the third time that was cool turkey
Mexico that’s true Kansas City Kansas City baby
let’s go home to Clarence we’ll see you tomorrow thank you
foreign
right do we need a little bit more time yeah I think we do I also have a question for you yeah
we’re not from this area
thing is that true here in Kansas City
um I don’t know about chili I know the cinnamon roll is definitely definitely a thing okay but
chili is not you never heard of that we thought it was very weird barbecue we had
barbecue is all right we were like cinnamon rolls in Philly that sounds kind of strange
okay okay that’s good Kansas City is known for its barbecue Florida yeah I’ve been there once
and it went to Destin oh cool and then I came back and then I was like how can I move there
we have been sitting for five minutes and we already have warm cinnamon rolls on the table
I love this Diner so much and I love that in this video we’ve had cinnamon rolls twice already it’s
in a more rules are one of my favorite things and again everyone is extremely extremely nice
these are complimentary yeah free state of Maryland
nice and warm oh they’re so perfect and soft Breakfast of Champions oh I love this
so I was definitely not expecting her to say that I thought that cinnamon rolls and chili
were totally a thing actually right now we’re in a very Classic Diner and I’ve read and we heard
that they serve delicious cinnamon rolls and they have chilies so I thought the combination would be
available here and I read online that’s a super big thing in Kansas and maybe Kansas City but it
turns out that that is not true she has never heard of it but I do have to say we’ve been in
touch with a friend of our newsletter Elena who said that cinnamon rolls and Shirley are
one of her favorite things but she thinks it’s more a small town thing in Kansas no Chilean
Cinema rules but we have chicken and waffles and biscuits and gravy they’re country special
a Midwestern to life yeah this place it was never recommended to have that specific thing it’s more
about the place right I mean it’s awesome the decoration is great it’s packed it’s packed
on like a Tuesday morning we did not expect that but yeah this is great yeah it’s gonna
be great definitely recommend this is a green American Experience right time for breakfast
I’m so full that’s exactly what I was thinking
but we got cinnamon rolls oh yeah Rachel is an angel tomorrow her name is Jessica
it was an angel she is an angel yes oh the neighborhood joints always yep fill you to
the brim they never disappoint it was very good we’ll see you guys later for something
very weird that this guy is having [Music] barbecue ice cream first time for everything
well I had one more chance to get Kansas City Barbecue so I had to go for it but
this time it’s in an actual ice cream so they do a collaboration here this is called Betty
Ray’s Ice Cream they collaborate with Joe’s Barbecue that we went to and had the burnt
ends and this actually has pieces of burnt ends in it kind of nervous barbecue ice cream
that’s actually very tasty it’s very like complex like the sweetness of the barbecue
sauce like works with the sweetness of whatever ice cream flavor this is but
the chunks of burnt ends are like kind of stringy and the texture is a little bit odd
but it’s good it’s like Smoky sweet barbecue.
