Great food and dining. There was a long line, but I got a beer to drink while I was waiting. Service was good to.

I ordered the ribs, and also got fries on the side and it was way too much food for me... but I wantred to eat it all right there as it was so good!

Eat here as soon as you can!

This was probably the best pulled pork I've had in my life. I don't know what the do, somewhere in their process they must do something unique that holds the moisture in the meat that keeps it wonderfully moist and tender on top of the delectable flavor. And then there are the ribs, my god the ribs. They are beyond reproach. Close your eyes and imagine what ribs are supposed to be. Not just how they should taste, how the should look and smell and feel, these are better than that. Until you've had Joe's ribs you don't truely know what real ribs can be. Also, don't sleep on the fries or the red brand and rice.

Hands down, best BBQ on the planet! We found this place a few years ago after trying all the other famous BBQ places in KC. Everything on the menu is great, even the sides. I just had a burnt end sandwich for lunch yesterday and it was melt-in-your-mouth delicious! We live 3 hours away but stop at Oklahoma Joe's every thim we pass through KC.

Amazing!!!

I'm always looking for a great BBQ place and boy did I ever! It was around 2 in the afternoon on a Friday and the place was packed. The staff was very friendly and eager to help. They even kept the order line moving so there wasn't a long wait. It's to bad the building is so small cause they could use some more tables.

OK, this is it!

This place is not fancy (see my review of Jack Stack) , but my goodness they know how to do what they say they do and thats put out some serious BBQ. We've eaten there on many occasions and have never been disappointed. The fact that its standing room only and line is out the door should attest to the goodness they put out. My favorite are the ribs of course. The are tender, juicy without being fatty and fall of the bone. My sister, who is in the BBQ catering business herself raves about this stuff when she visits. Not to be missed - their crack fries. Why "Crack" because once you've eaten em, your are hooked for life.
