Gates Bar-B-Q

About

Gates has been slinging barbecue across KC since 1946, and the menu reads like a masterclass in keeping things simple and focused: ribs, beef, ham, turkey, pork, chicken, sausage, and mutton, all paired with sides like beans, slaw, and their own fries. The place is family friendly with a patio, and you can order straight from the counter or call ahead for carry-out.
