Last night we decided to try Rib City out. Mainly because wifey has been on a huge BBQ kick since we got back from Georgia.
When it comes to BBQ wifey is very picky. She’s jaded from all the visits to her family in Alabama. The first question she always asks is if they have sweet tea, and they do. Surprisingly she did like it. Outside of mickey d’s that’s really the first place she’s liked the sweet tea up here. So score one for this place in her eyes.
I got the BBQ pork dinner and she got Tony’s combo which is a slab of baby back ribs and 1/4 pound of pork.
It didn’t take very long to get, which has been a problem at a few other places we’ve eaten recently. So that was nice.
The pork is sliced very thin instead of being pulled like typical BBQ and you add the sauce to it that you like (there are 3 on the tables a sweet, a tangy and something called a carolina mustard. They also have a hot BBQ sauce that you have to ask for because they keep it in the back. I think I’ll try that one next time!). They served our plates with a side of garlic bread which I think should be switched to corn bread to keep things a bit more authentic, but that’s just my preference.
The pork was really tender and had a great flavor to it. I can’t speak for the ribs but they were obviously tender. The bones came right out with no resistance at all.
Our waitress was really good and had great timing.
The total bill was $33 something which is right on par or better than the other BBQ places around.
Oh before I forget they do have pulled pork in a sandwich which I’ll probably try next time.
Overall I have to say this is one of the better BBQ places around and the great thing it’s pretty close to us. So if they keep up the good service we’ll become regulars there.
