Hoping I can make that work. Hays is a hop, skip, and a jump away - only 3.5 - 4 hours and my wife is from there and still has family there and she isn't afraid of delicious food. I know there are some great places there. KC was my first exposure to real BBQ 32 nearly 33 years ago. We lived there for several years during residency and had an opportunity to sample a variety of places, however, that has been nearly 20 years ago.

It's a 3 hr drive for me, so without other conflicts I could make it.
Don't forget about the Museum of BBQ at Crown Center. I was there this summer and posted a review somewhere in The Pit.

I’d suggest Q39 makes the list of places to go. I’ll hardly eat at a BBQ restaurant as I usually prefer to just make my own, but I’ve loved Q39 both times I’ve been there, though part of it was the same waiter both trips who was amazing and a character and a half. Depending on when it lands I might try to make it for at least a day since only 3 hours away.
