If this story is making you feel full, you are right on track with how we were feeling after pulling only a small percentage of what might be the most tender beef that has ever been served off of this massive bone. I should have asked how much each rib weighs so we could give you a better understanding of the size of this thing – now I could be wrong, but I’m betting they measure these ribs in terms of pounds, not ounces. Unfortunately none of the pictures of this Crown Prime Beef Rib will properly depict the size of this one rib. What I was expecting is the typical appetizer that leaves you wondering if you should have ordered two, but what showed up was something that looked more like they sourced the rib from a Brontosaurus than from a side of beef. Okay, back to the rib that we were about to have delivered to our table as an appetizer.
Quickly jumping back to the Kansas City BBQ Tour Preview, you’ll remember Hint #2 brought back childhood memories of the classic cartoon “The Flintstones” when the ribs that are brought out to Fred’s car are so massive that they tip the whole car over – this will all make sense in a minute. He was insistent that we start off with a Crown Prime Beef Rib as an appetizer – yes, one rib… This would probably be a good time to mention that Scott said that this rib would be the equivalent of having smoked prime rib, have we got your attention now?
#JACK STACK NUTRITION PLUS#
While there were probably 10 questions that I had off the top of my head, I asked Scott my first question: “What makes Jack Stack different than all the other BBQ restaurants in Kansas City?” I was absolutely expecting that Scott would explain the contrast in dining experience when compared to other BBQ restaurants – but what I wasn’t expecting is that Scott knew the Jack Stack story so well that he inadvertently answered all 10 of my questions, plus about another 5 that I hadn’t even thought about asking.Īfter Scott explained the Jack Stack story which goes back 40 years, and is in part based on offering a finer dining experience than is customarily associated with BBQ restaurants, we finally got around to me asking the most important question of the day: “What should we order from the menu?” I guess I was expecting to hear that we can’t leave without trying the ribs or the burnt ends – but to our surprise Scott mentioned something that we had really not paid much attention to when reviewing the menu. Since I had been here in the past, I knew some of the questions that I wanted to ask so I could learn more about how Jack Stack manages to offer such a high end dining experience, and successfully delivers extremely consistent BBQ.
After mentioning that we were scheduled to meet with Scott Grow who is the General Manager of the Freight House location, we were shown to our seats where Scott met up with us shortly thereafter. As you enter the lobby of Jack Stack and catch your first glimpse of the dining room, you immediately notice that you are about to embark on a truly fine dining experience.Īs we walked up to the hostess (remember, this is not regular BBQ) the scent of BBQ was in the air which acted almost as an appetizer. Jack Stack is not your run of the mill BBQ restaurant where there are as many flies as there are patrons – this is something entirely different. Today we are going tell you about the upper end of the BBQ dining spectrum. If you recall from our Kansas City BBQ Tour Preview, we mentioned that we would discuss the range of dinning styles when it comes to KC BBQ.
