The bbq is absolutely perfect! Everything is well flavored with perfect amounts of smoke and bark. I've tried just about everything on the menu and haven't been disappointed once. You can't go wrong no matter what you choose. Plus the Kickin apple sauce is the best I've ever had. 12/10 all around on my pov.

Blue Ember Smokehouse has some great and tasty cuts of meat. I particularly like their moist smoked brisket and their smoked turkey. The three cheese sausages are also good. The flavors are mouth-watering and very satisfying. Dining at their establishment is especially if they have the smokers going. I would highly recommend them.

I have to say the 1/3lb Turkey Breast is moist and seasoned to perfection. The French Fries were crispy still after delivery and seasoned well. I'm a sucker for their 1/3lb Sausage and Potato Salad though. Those are my go-to when ordering and the apple BBQ sauce is delish!

This restaurant is absolutely amazing. I lived in KC for close to a decade and Kansas City is known for BBQ. Blue Ember beats them all. Best BBQ I've ever had. That being said, I've ordered them 2x now and both times they have shorted my order. Both were meat only. The 1st was 1 lb/16 oz of lean Brisket. I weighed it immediately when returning home and it was short a full 2 oz. That's 1/8th of an expensive order. 1/8 of $100 is $12.50 (12.5%). I paid for 16 oz not 14 oz. The second time/today I ordered 2/3 lb of the same Brisket and 1lb of Sausage. Both were short. 2/3 lb is 10.666667 oz. This was the Brisket and was short .3 oz (2.8%). 1 lb/16 oz of Sausage was short 1.5 oz. (9.4%). Add them both together and my order was 12.2% short. The order was roughly $44. 12.2% of $44 is $5.28. Now I know this isn't precise as the Brisket is more expensive than the Sausage but I want all that I pay for! If these orders weren't shorted, this restaurant would be 5 star plus.

They ran outif corn so they substituted it with Potato Salad and it's probably the one of the best if not the best Potato Salad ive had, everything was great. The sandwich was big, ribs falling off the bone, crispy okra,solid baked beans and the coleslaw was also there. 5/5
