Bobo's Drive In
Drive-in restaurants may not be as commonplace as they used to be, but that hasn't stopped Bobo's Drive-In from attracting customers with the same recipes they've had for over 50 years. Their classic cheeseburger is often served with their signature Spanish sauce; as Guy says, ''that's good eats.''

CAFE on the ROUTE
On Triple D's road trip across Route 66, Guy discovered Cafe on the Route and their killer crusted catfish. As for the legendary kicks — they've got that, too. How about Aztec chicken with a rum glaze, avocado and chiles? For a decadent dessert, enjoy deep-fried cheesecake.

Woodyard Bar-B-Que
Woodyard had been supplying wood to Kansas City BBQ restaurants since 1913, when in 2005, owner Frank Schloegel decided that if it's good enough for everybody else, he'd start cooking on it, too. Now the Smoked Chicken and BurntEnds Sandwich are local faves, and Guy calls the Pork Ribs "a knockout."

Brints Diner
Brint's Diner in Wichita may have been remodeled recently, but it hasn't lost the warm and down-to-earth atmosphere (no big-screen TV, just food and folks) that's kept locals coming back for more. Guy was particularly impressed with the scrambled eggs, which were light, fluffy and not oily.

Johnny's B-B-Q
According to Guy, Johnny's Bar-B-Q "just screams tradition." With a handmade pit, over three decades of happy customers and an owner who's been making BBQ since he was 14 that comes as no surprise. Try the nice and crispy, super-juicy smoked-and-deep-fried chicken with award-winning mild BBQ rub.

R.J.'s Bob-Be-Que Shack
Chef Bob Palmgreen spent years in high-end NYC restaurants, entering BBQ competitions on the side, until after receiving dozens of awards he decided to take his hobby full time with RJ's Bob-Be-Que Shack. Guy calls their Jalapeno Sausage "tremendous," and the Lamb Ribs are a bonafide top seller.
