Harp Barbecue in Raytown, Missouri

On the topic of barbecue, you simply can’t miss Harp Barbecue. The other famous regions might have pretty puritanical perfection ideals, but Missouri is proud of how messy things can get. Tyler Harp is a local Texophile who brought over Lone Star State technique to blue-collar Raytown suburbia. This place is mostly known as the setting of Mama’s Family! As a child, Harp watched his dad and uncle cook it out on the barbecue competition circuit. He experienced an epiphany of his own on a Texas trip after learning that he could change things up with sausage and brisket. He started to cook in his yard and sold briskets on the driveway until he got a local brewery spot. It is pretty near to learn that he has been to 300 barbecue joints in the nation! He says that he learns new things no matter where he goes.
