I watched it. Ollie Gates isn't the best representative for KC BBQ (though I like Gates Q now and then). I was glad to see Earl Quick though. Man! NOTHING beats a Quick's BBQ sausage sammie! If you are in KC you should visit Quick's. Little place, NOT fancy! Not a swanky neighborhood. Just good Q.
Can't say as I was too interested in the cow heads cooked in the pit down south. (You had to see the program)
