Episode Details

Kansas City is front and center in the highly anticipated Season 4 of Ted Lasso, with iconic landmarks like Country Club Plaza and Union Station serving as backdrops—and local BBQ legends like Gates BBQ getting a starring role. After weeks of behind-the-scenes hustle, Gates BBQ not only made it into the episode but also landed a speaking part for operations manager Colin Shipley-Gates, who’s keeping his cameo under wraps. The love for KC BBQ runs deep, thanks to co-creator Jason Sudeikis, whose hometown pride shines through in nods like the “Ted Lasso + KC BBQ” merch. It’s more than just food—it’s the city’s spirit on screen. Don’t miss the premiere this Wednesday (or Apple TV’s early drop), and join the KC Current for a stadium watch party complete with trivia and screenings—your chance to celebrate Kansas City’s moment in the spotlight.
