Got any leftovers?

Barely enough for a small bowl.

Gates in Independence burned down this morning.

I've never been to that one, and not that I go to Gates all that much anyways, but I always liked it more than I think most gave it credit for.

Yeah, it's strange because Gates is, in my experience, the most well-known of KC's big BBQ joints, at least among non-natives. I think there's a bit of a foodie backlash as a result. Not that anybody would ever accuse Gates of being anything less than good - even being a second-tier BBQ place in KC means you're [expletive] excellent by any other measure - but still. It was my introduction to KC BBQ back when I moved here 13 years ago, so I'll always have a soft spot for it.

Also, I just moved into a house with some friends and I'm now one mile from Oklahoma Joe's*. Life is good.

*Joe's Kansas City, but it's gonna take a while if ever for that name to stick with me.

Harissa
Labneh


I love them so damn much. Don’t have anything to eat? Got a can of chickpeas? Add harissa and labneh. Mmm.
Just cooked a burger in cast iron. Threw some pine nuts in pan. Added harissa just before done. Chopped peppers into pan. Big dollop of labneh then piled the peppers and pine nuts on top. So good.


Cheerios (or granola), blueberries, a bit of peanut butter, labneh, honey for breakfast. So dang good.
