This place is definitely a Yep! and my favorite BBQ place right now. A chef friend taught me that the measure of BBQ joint is the burnt ends, and it is always what he tries first at new resturante. I have never had better burnt ends than here. Pure melt in your mouth goodness. Food is made to order so be prepared to wait while they put it togeter and BTW the wait is worth every min. They do a kind of 'batch cooking' and have the foods listed that are available in the main window on hanging wood planks - so they don't always have everything on their menu. I went back three times this weekend to try the 'armadillo eggs', and I regret nothing!

An extra bonus they have a new indoor seated area and the AC is awesome, plus the decor is a very charming display St Joe nostalgia. Sorry now picture of the burnt ends - it was all gone before I thought to.

On the edge of a random highway, exists a better BBQ spot than the big names in KC such as Jack Stack and Q39. The owner here obviously loves his craft. Come here and wait a little bit longer than you're expecting to. It will be worth it.

Great food!!! Amazing BBQ sauces! Great people who really care about the food and service. Some of the best BBQ we had while here.

Very good BBQ. Had the Jalapeño Sausage and the Brisket Burnt Ends. Both were excellent. We also ordered the Cole slaw, Beans, and a Banana Cream desert, a of which were fresh and tasted great. I was especially impressed with the Cole Slaw, as the dressing was different from most, unique and had an excellent flavor, definitely a winner. The service was attentive and very friendly. We will certainly be back the next time we are in the area.

Worth the detour! Everything was homemade and delicious, he added a cup of every sauce for free, and it's a beautiful outdoor location with a view of the hills. Will make the trip again next time we pass through

We stopped here on the way to the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting in Omaha. It was unbelievably good. We got there at 11:15 and he said he was almost out of food because he had gotten so many orders. We were lucky that he had some food left because it was incredible. We had the burnt ends, ribs, beans and Mac and cheese. We are going to stop on our way back to the Kansas City airport.

The meats were seasoned tastefully. We thoroughly enjoyed the flavor of all the sauces available.The sides were all excellent. The apple cobbler was the only dessert we tried, our only regret was not getting more. Highly recommend Hank and Ace's if you're craving barbecue!

If you're reading this, then you're hungry for BBQ, let me tell you people, this is THE place! First time there and all I can say is WOW! I had the sliced brisket sandwich and also ordered baked beans and macaroni and cheese.
The baked beans are probably the best I've ever had in my life, you could make a meal out of them alone! All I will say about the brisket is try it, when all that is left is what's stuck between your teeth, you'll thank me!!!
