Took my dad here the other night because he likes his ribs "fall of the bone" and doesn't like the ones I make.
He and I both had their ribs, which were St. Louis style. My wife just had a selection of sides. I would normally have also tried the brisket and pulled pork to really judge a place, but that was deemed too expensive and I wasn't that hungry.
The ribs were smoked and then held in a water bath before serving. They were definitely fall-off-the-bone and tasted OK but not something I would order again. Their red sauce was sweet and smoky and served on the side (actually self-served).
The standard fries were good, but nothing special. We also had the spicy Brussels sprouts which were undercooked. The "spicy" slaw was not good at all. My wife had cheesy mashed potatoes which she said were, "OK but how bad could they screw that up?"
The places aims to be "Texas-style" BBQ and the serving style is definitely southern style, served on metal sheet pans with pink butcher paper. The table was stainless steel. All of which served to cool down the food way too fast and was cold by the time we finished it.
Pricing was pretty steep for what we got. $41 for two 1/3 racks of ribs and 3 sides, no drinks.
I won't be back.
