    I was pumped to try this place because of all the good things I heard. (I went a long time ago) Comparing Blue Ribbon BBQ to the real thing is laughable....read more

    Frankly I do not see how one could improve on BRBBQ - ribs, sausage, chicken, pork, it's all very, very good. The sides are great, best for me are...read more

    The quality of meat and sides is strong, but the lackluster regular BBQ sauce is what prevents this place from getting my 5-star vote. I do love the...read more

The Scene
Families and young professionals come from far and wide to dig into heaping pulled pork platters and imposing slabs of ribs, amid a southern roadside environment (counter service only). Lunch and dinner hours yield vastly different atmospheres: Noontime visitors enjoy a quiet, relaxed environment and rarely have a problem nabbing an open seat (there are only 12), while most nights bring standing-room-only crowds, forcing larger groups to skip the wait for a seat and take their meals to go.

The Food
Order an assortment of the Ribbon's slow-cooked meats to take a culinary tour of Southern barbecue styles--there's flavorful North Carolina pulled pork, moist Texas brisket, meaty Memphis dry-rubbed ribs, and smoky Kansas City burnt ends. Each platter comes with a choice of sides (maple roasted sweet potatoes and creamy mac-and-cheese are among the top options). Leave room for a slice of delectable, homemade sweet potato pie for dessert.
