Invest in some air tight containers and put it in your checked luggage.
Here's an idea. Most BBQ in Kansas city can be shipped. Order it and have it shipped, be there when you get there
Food is allowed through checkpoints just not the bottles of BBQ sauce.
Once when in Louisiana for business got containers of wonderful local food. The hotel froze it overnight. The I was able to get it home barely defrosted. Family ate it within a couple days.
So every major city that has popular BBQ should let everyone through with a bunch of food? Is this only BBQ or could Chicago get in on the action because of their pizza?
