Chef Vaughn Good's craft-BBQ project in the basement lounge of Fox and Pearl.

⏰ Very limited hours/days and known to sell out — check their Instagram before going.

Night Goat is chef Vaughn Good's craft-barbecue project, tucked into the basement lounge of Fox and Pearl on Summit Street. This is new-school, chef-driven barbecue — composed plates over by-the-pound trays — and it deliberately breaks from the classic KC template. Hours are limited and it sells out, so check Instagram before making the trip.
