Mighty Good Q = Oklahoma Joes Barbeque

Where: Oklahoma Joes Barbeque

11950 Strang Line Road Olathe, KS

I am from the Mid-West, and was born in Kansas City.  To say that I love Barbeque doesn’t really cover it.  I’ve even dreamed about Barbeque.  One of my favorite resteraunts is Oklahoma Joes.  I’ve never been to the original Oklahoma Joes.  It’s in Shawnee, Kansas (a suburb of KC) and in a gas station or something..

 I would have taken a photo of the outside of the building, but it was dark when I arrived.. so no outside of the building photos for you..

There is usually a line when you walk in the place.. and on this night there was a line.  Wait time is usually only 5-15 minutes. (so don’t let the line scare you)

I should tell you I order the same thing every time I go.. a Z man sandwich and fries.  This is a Z man.. Barbeque beef brisket, on a toasted bun with cheese and onion ring on top.  It is so good.

I like sauce.. but to me Barbeque is about the meat… this meat is fall-apart-tender.. and the flavors.. are so good.

The Man varies what he gets.. this day he had a Hog Heaven.  Polish Sausage, and pulled pork.

I love the fries and I love the onion rings. When you order the fries at Oklahoma Joes they give you more than enough to share. The Man and I always share Onion rings and fries when we go.

Here’s Child #3 enjoying a Z Man

Child #2 and his Z man.. you can tell by the closed eyes.. it’s almost a religious experience for him.

I thought this was funny.. They were stickin’ it too the Man..

Oklahoma Joes Z-man sandwich was the inspiration for my Z-Man Grilled Pizza.  Watch for it.. I’ll be making it soon.
