Z-Man sandwich · Kansas City

Slow-smoked brisket, smoked provolone, two crispy onion rings and barbecue sauce on a kaiser roll. The signature sandwich Joe's Kansas City Bar-B-Que built at the working Shamrock gas station shortly after opening in 1996.

Jeff and Joy Stehney built Joe's Kansas City Bar-B-Que (then Oklahoma Joe's) inside a working Shamrock gas station at 47th and Mission in Kansas City, Kansas in 1996 from their competition-circuit success. The Z-Man, layered brisket with smoked provolone and onion rings on a kaiser, was named in 1997 after Kansas City radio host Mike Zarrick (aka The Z-Man), who ran a fan naming contest that kept the on-air nickname. The sandwich became Joe's signature and now defines the city's sandwich-format barbecue.
