We all have that one food – or foods – that we can’t get enough of – barbecue, pizza, chocolate…maybe even tenderloins. One town in Missouri, after all, is known as the Tenderloin Capital of the World, so tenderloin sandwiches are practically part of our culinary DNA. (The town is St. Joseph.) Next time an unrelenting (or even just a little) craving hits for a sandwich, you’ll find one of the largest tenderloin sandwiches in Missouri at Christine’s Firehouse.
Make sure you're mighty hungry when you stop by Christine's Firehouse in North Kansas City, or you're probably going to take leftovers home, especially if you order the famous tenderloin sandwich.
When it comes to advertising, Christine's Firehouse is old-school, depending on word-of-mouth rather than having a website and Facebook page.
How big is it? Well, you can easily split it with your favorite person but, really, after one bite, you're not going to want to. It's just so good that you'll be happy to have leftovers.
Don't be surprised if you share the giant tenderloin sandwich and still have some left.
