Jazzy B's

After driving from the Northland to Lees Summit to checkout Jazzy B's, I wanted to go all in on the menu and try as much as i could; so for $25 I ordered the 3 meats and 3 sides platter. Three short ribs, six thick slices of sausage, and about a dozen chunks of burnt ends were my meats. Large cups of baked beans and apple jicama slaw were served with a very large helping of tater tots, Texas toast, pickles and cups of sauce on the side. A large feast that exceeded my expectations in quantity. Ok, but what about the quality? First the missed opportunities... the ribs were short but thick, yet were a bit greasy and undercooked, and The "Miles Davis Baked Beans" had an unusual taste... maybe too much liquid smoke?? Not my favorite beans by a long shot. They had a nice "Aura" but this "Bitches Brew" of a side dish left me "Kind of Blue". Now on to the good stuff.... The tater tots were the best I've ever had. Some sort of sweet magic powder was coating them and created "A Love Supreme" between me and those little potato nuggets.. I'm very glad the serving was large. Apple / Jicama slaw? Yep, another "Strange Fruit" concoction but the, textures and flavor combinations won me over.Burnt Ends... "Mercy Mercy Mercy" a mouthful of moist meaty morsels that stack up to any other in town.Sausage - was one of "My Favorite Things" Made in house and perfect flavoring without fennel seeds! Great for dipping in the sauce on the side cups.Jazzy B's not only has a large BBQ menu, but offers much more, burgers, crab cakes, salads, a full bar, live music, sports and jazz paraphernalia for visual stimulation.I love the fact that this place has blended two of our city's culture touchstones - BBQ and Jazz, thrown in some football blended it all together to create a unique roadhouse feel. I wish they were more centrally located in the metro, because I would certainly be a loyal and returning customer if they were a bit closer.Three days post visit and I'm already "In the Mood" to "Take the A Train" back to Lees Summit for some Crab Cake balls, a brisket sandwich and a cocktail or two and listen to some live beats and take some "Time Out".

Smells great in here!We placed our order we placed our order at the register as instructed and took a seat.We ordered several different meats to try. The owner came by to make sure everything was great. It was nice that he cared enough to check in with us.This is kind of a mixed review. I really like the atmosphere here and felt at home.Something was off with the pulled pork; I think it was old. Neither my wife or I were interested in a second bite. The brisket was pretty good and so was the sausage. The sauces were good too!I like the beans a great deal. The cheesy corn was delicious. The coleslaw was nice. But holy cow! The best thing on that platter was the amazing tater tots!! They are the best tots either of us have ever had in our combined 100+ years. Absolutely delicious!!!

Jazzy B's has some good bbq that everyone should try. The slow smoked meats have flavor that hits the tastebuds and you'll be coming back for more. I've had the ribs, chicken wings and don't forget the Jazzy fries with a special seasoning.

Shared a platter with brisket, ribs and burnt ends. Sides cole slaw, baked beans and tater tots. The meat was all fine but nothing that special- in kc you'd better be special as the competition is fierce. The sides were very good- especially the tots and beans. The best though were the fried mushroom appetizer- world class on that one. Service was excellent as well- very friendly place.

Good was great. Had the burnt ends, they were better than most you find in the area. I enjoyed the laid back dive bar atmosphere and clientele. Will visit again when in Lees Summit

We finally got around to trying Jazzy B's, and we're so glad we did. My wife tried the brisket tacos with a side of fries. She thought they tacos were good, but she loved the fries. She tried the spicy bbq sauce and the jazzy sauce, and liked them both. She tried a cocktail, the Cajun storm, and really liked it. I had the two meat and two side platter. The meats I chose were the chicken wings and brisket. The wings were awesome! I tried the garlic Parmesan. Just the right amount of seasoning, with crispy skin, and smoke flavor. The brisket was tender, with the right amount of flavor from the rub they smoked it with. I tried the spicy bbq sauce, and liked it as well. My sides were fries and the Miles Davis baked beans. Both were great! I tried a Peanut Butter porter, and loved it! As far as the service, it was outstanding. The guys were friendly and attentive, and answered our questions about the food and drinks we tried. We plan on going back and trying some of the other menu items.

Food was good service was great.....affordable and you get what you pay for. It's not gourmet but it was pretty good. Burnt ends: Cole Slaw Apple Slaw KC BBQ Pulled Pork KC BBQ Brisket Garlic Cheesy Corn Miles Davis Baked Beans tater tot's Jazzy Fries

My fiancé and I visited Jazzy B's on Blue Parkway for dinner, and while the service was fine, the food was disappointing. We had high expectations based on Google reviews, but the quality didn't match.The baked beans had a strong chemical taste, and my side salad came without dressing. When I asked for Ranch, it was so chunky that I couldn't eat it. The queso was clearly watered down. We ordered the 4-meat tray with 4 sides, which was a good value, but the burnt ends were cold, and the wings were overcooked, dry, and lacked seasoning. The best parts of the tray were the tater tots and fries, but overall, we left hungry due to the poor food quality.On the positive side, the ambiance was nice, and the live band was great. The staff seemed attentive, though the person I assumed to be the manager yelled a few times--not sure if it was playful or not, but it was unexpected.We were hoping for a great date night but, unfortunately, left disappointed.

BBQ in Kansas City......there seem to be a million great options. This place is a little hidden in a strip mall. Years ago I had their food from their great food truck and decided it was time for a rematch. BBQ in KC should be amazing, rich and smokey before you add any sauce and then the sauce just completes the flavor profile.......if you can't manage that you won't last in KC......Jazzy Bs doesn't disappoint! Brisket lean (I hate it when half of my brisket is fat) large portions.....great, crispy tots. Daughter #2 had fish and chips....huge perfectly cooked portions (only problem was no tartar sauce?). Get away from some of the bigger names in town and give them a try.

Awesome BBQ and great service. The owner was waiting tables himself and made everyone feel right at home. .
