My favorite is dry shredded pork with a variety of sauces I can play with. My favorite sauces are the tangy, slightly spicy kind.
How do you like your BBQ?

What part of Missouri do you live in? As famous as KC Q is, the folks in St.Louis haven't the foggiest idea of what to do with a piece of pork. In fact, when I lived there it didn't take me long to find a joint on the northside of town that called itself "Memphis Best BBQ" or somesuch. Blech. Ick. It was ribs with honey/ketchup on top. And ribs ain't top-of-the-line BBQ, IMHO.

Oh yeah. And I don't even like mustard.

I live in Inpdependence, which is part of the KC metro area. IMO, this is THE place to live for great BBQ. My hometown of Marshall (an hour east of KC) has a great BBQ joint as well called Pit Stop. The place isn't much (just an old house converted into a restaurant), but they serve some of the best shredded ham and beef sandwiches going. The big three out here are Gates, Arthur Bryant's, and The Smokehouse. Now that Perry Foster has moved up here, I'd really have to put him on the list as well. It'll just take some time for people to find out about him.Greylock said:

I had a bratwurst dog last night night. My dad grilled 'em up and put just a touch of BBQ sauce on 'em. Oh man, it was sooo good.

(not that that ever stops me from eating any kind of BBQ... it's just the best)
Growing up in upstate NY, barbeque was what we did to hot dogs, hamburgers, and chicken outside on the grill. After meeting a nice southern girl from VA, I was shown the error of my ways.
I've had BBQ from Kansas, from Texas, from the Northeast (mostly chains, but a couple of decent mom&pop places) and from North Carolina. I do have to say that the best I had was in NC. I keep trying to get business trips down that way so I can get some more of it, but somehow they always get cancelled.
As for how I like it, I like it wet, a little bit sweet, with a decent smoke flavor and some good zing.
