Everyone knows Kansans love good barbecue, which is why we made our own flavors like Kansas City barbecue. It’s our opinion that barbecue tastes the best when it comes from Kansas, and this restaurant is no different. Do you remember an old Kansas restaurant named Georgio’s in Wichita, that used to serve the absolute best barbecue? Unfortunately, it closed in the 90s, but this iconic Kansas BBQ joint is back again.
This unassuming tent camped out under an old unused gas station isn’t just some guy selling food, it’s the new spot for Georgio’s II BBQ, an amazing new spot that’s bringing old beloved flavors back from before.
