"Consistently ranked among the nation's top BBQ joints, this smokehouse epitomizes the Kansas City style: slow-smoked meats slathered in a thick, sweet, tomato-and-molasses-based sauce." (Emily Saladino and Lauren Rothman, New York Post)

Jeff first began competing in barbecue contests with his wife Joy in 1990.

In 1993, Slaughterhouse Five won the Kansas City Barbeque Society Team of The Year. Encouraged by their success in competition barbecue, Jeff & Joy opened their first restaurant in 1996, in the gas station at the corner of 47th & Mission, in Kansas City, Kansas. They’ve opened two additional restaurants since. Joe’s Kansas City Bar-B-Que has been Zagat’s highest rated Kansas City barbecue establishment every year since 2004.
