Jesse Sapp is the pitmaster, and the name honors his late sister, Kimberley Sapp. The Tampa Bay Times reports he cooks over oak and sometimes pecan on a pit smoker more than 50 years old, at the site of the former Hogley Wogley BBQ, and quotes him: 'We take pride in how we clean our ribs.' Spare ribs, chicken, top sirloin and pork shoulder come with mustard-based sauce, hot or mild.
