The story

Fiorella's Jack Stack Barbecue was originally a part of the Fiorella family-owned chain of Smoke Stack Barbecue restaurants, with the original restaurant located on Prospect Avenue in south Kansas City, Missouri. Founded by family patriarch Russ Fiorella in 1957, it eventually opened four more restaurants for the Fiorella family. One of these, Smoke Stack Barbecue of Martin City, was opened in 1974 by the eldest son, Jack Fiorella and his wife, Delores. The restaurant briefly changed its name to Hatfield and McCoy's in the mid-1980s.
