Customer Reviews
Found this gem after I took my son to Triple Bs farm. Its exactly what you think an old school BBQ joint would look like. They are only open til the food runs out. I ordered the half chicken, kielbasa sandwich, piggy mac, and fried pickles. The half a chicken was a good size and not dried out. I paired it with the sweet and tangy sauce. The kielbasa was excellent. It had a good flavor profile. The piggy mac was good. The pulled pork was flavorful. The fried pickles were a decent size, but had a little too much breading for my taste. They allowed me to try their various sauces since it was my first time there. The sauces were good. Had more of a tomato base then most sauces I've had. I liked the sweet and tangy and my 18 monther liked the mild. I got the sauces on the side so I could share
Quaint little shack tucked between the road and the river, offering darn good food. Wether you want a simple hotdog, pulled pork, a slab of ribs or a pork steak bigger than the plate, come here. Sides are tasty. The fresh cut fries, macaroni and cheese, coleslaw and baked beans are delish. Wings? Yum - & whole! Come on down. Check the website first for hours.
Well I ordered a a full slab. The slab I got is cut up some of the bones are dry as hell some of the bones could use a little bit more cooking. Also it was new to having a tomato sauce put on my ribs and they call it barbecue sauce it is a tomato sauce. I wouldn't recommend eating here. Not if you know what good barbecue should taste like. I took my order to go but I watched a couple of regulars get their order and their bones were meaty and huge of the smaller meat bones if you're an outsider definitely do not go here if you're a regular then you really don't know good ribs
I'll preface this by saying I'm not a ribs guy. Even so, this place was fairly good. The sauce had a pretty "pizza sauce plus something" flavor that worked decently well. The sauce amount was not skimped on and the ribs do include some edible napkins (white bread slices) for cleanup. The service when ordering takeout was quick and I was given an accurate time expectation. I only shared the atmosphere during pickup, and it seemed to be a standard bar setup. The price was plenty fair for what I received. I wouldn't have any complaints eating here again, even if it isn't likely to be my suggestion, and it's a shame I drove past so many times without stopping here.
The Rib Cage is a n little BBQ joint tucked away on the side of the road that's only open a few days ago week. I stopped in for lunch on a recommendation, and I'm glad I did. I sat at the bar and went with the lunch special, two pork chops smothered in the spicy bbq sauce, and a side of fresh cut fries. The chops were delicious and tender, the sauce had a nice spicy kick with some tang to it. The fries were perfect. And you get to snack on free peanuts, a nice touch.The people who worked there were all very nice. They recommend to call ahead so you don't have to wait if you're in in a hurry.
