There's always the obvious - KCMasterpiece on Lindbergh.  Just take the Lingbergh North exit from I44 and keep on going till you get to it.  It's on the left and you have to go past it, use the Olive St. ramps to do a turn around and then head back south.

There is also a place off Lindbergh on Manchester.  It's East on Manchester a couple of lights.  Little place beside a bank that sits on the corner and I don't remember the name.

There is also a place in Kirkwood (again, only a block or so off Lindbergh) but darn it, I'd have to drive down there to find the exact street.  It's in the old section of Kirkwood and if you stop and ask around I'm sure someone will know where it is.  Well, then again, there are two places in that part of town...

But hang the barbecue and go for OT Hodges chili!!!
