As for Smoking Guns when they first opened in NKC I went there with some the crew. We had read all the awards the guy had won. We walked in the joint wasn't a soul in the place at lunch time. Looking around was 1st place ribbon and awards hanging all over the place. Then we got our food no smokey taste to the brisket. We all agreed the guy didn't take as much care in his joint as he did competition. We swore never to set foot there again and haven't. I have been hearing people giving it good reviews maybe it is time to give a second chance.

People have a love or hate relationship with Rosedale. Personally, I love the joint. It's one of the oldest continuing BBQ joints in KC. It's got a front counter you can sit at, the food comes out fast. And if you don't mind a styrofoam plate, it's a great value. For a dinner you get whatever meat you want (I love their turkey) and three sides -crinkle cut fries, beans and slaw, all for less than $10. The beer and the soda is in bottles or cans, and they have one of the widest selections in town. They have diet Vernor's ginger ale...which is way cool if you drink diet soda like I do. Downside on Rosedale is their ribs are usually fatty, kind of the consistency of pot roast, and I don't like them that much. The brisket is cut into cubes, not strips, and it's hard to manage on a bun. The sauce is wonderful. Has an apple fruit kick, and is just terrific. They make a regular and a hot version.
I had Smokin' Guns at a catered event once, never been to the restaurant in NKC, so I can't really say much about them. I've had friends that have gone there and had a good experience.
