They could close them all as long as they still make that sweet heat sauce for the stores. The quality of there smoked meats has progressively gotten worse over the years. I love that sweet heat sauce though. [Reply]
From what I was told after they closed up at Ameristar- was a Florida guy came through town and liked the place, so bought them out.
Once that happened- all the quality and management went downhill. The Ameristar was a pretty hopping location and excellent food at one time. I am not sure how you could mess that up so bad, it was a golden goose. [Reply]

You ever eaten BBQ in Florida? That state can fuck up anything. [Reply]

It was hit or miss. We always stayed out there when we went to Royals and Chiefs games. I don't remember how many times we went to AB but they weren't all bad. Some certainly were though. [Reply]

Pretty sure there was a huge write up about the original AB location having rats, roaches and disgusting health violations. I don't think I will ever risk going there- ever.
I can buy their sauce and make my own awesome BBQ at home instead of risking some black dude wiping his ass on a rack of ribs and then serving them to me. [Reply]

Where do you think all that extra flavor comes from? You can't get that at home. [Reply]
Back in the 70s and early 80s it was some of the best Q you could get anywhere,
went back to the original location this past year and it was not the same.
I think the new generation is lacking the passion Arthur had.
That whole neighborhood has changed. I had not been down there for 10 years and it feels safer now................... [Reply]
