Small but fun group indeed. Thanks again to MCI777 for organizing. Even though I traded some BBQ stops for the KC Tap Tour this year, still got to try new (to me) spots like Q39 and revisit old friends (looking at you, mountain of LC's burnt ends).
Glad to be back after a few years off. Looking forward to next time.

Glad to meet up with a few of you last night at LC's! That BBQ sure smelled amazing and I'll definitely have to head out there in the coming weeks to try it. Hope everybody had an easy and irrops free trip back home!

Since you're still reading... I'm considering a trip to MCI later this summer. What else is there to do in the KC area for a day or two besides eat? 
I read about the Truman Museum and WWl Museum. Other suggestions for a possible overnight?
The Royals are away that weekend.
I promise to post if I decide to visit.

What kind of interests do you have? Hobbies? Maybe I can give you more to go on, but those are off the top of my head having grown up and lived in KC most of my life.

The Arabia Steamboat Museum in the River market is a one of a kind museum in the whole US.

If you do go to the Plaza on a weekend night be very careful walking around. There are packs of marauding teens there hassling people, fighting each other, stealing phones from people's hands, and occasionally shooting at each other. I never go there anymore after dark.

Thanks everyone. It seems that all the ideas mentioned should cover me.
I'll be in town Saturday August 26 lunch - midday Monday. I'll post after I hear back from a friend of mine. I'm looking to eat BBQ and steak, and have read and researched the recommendations posted. ^
