OT: Whatcha Eatin' - Second Course

I hear KC-style BBQ is the shit.

I hear KC-style BBQ is the ****.

It was pretty damn good. I think I like it better than the bbq I tried in Charlotte a few years ago but that could just come down to the individual restaurants.

At the risk of starting a holy war, I’ve eaten BBQ in N.C., Memphis, KC, and Texas. KC wins hands down for me. KC burnt ends done right (like at Joe’s KC) bring a tear to my eye.

Casey's pizza. Do yall have Casey's there yet? It's pretty damn great. One of mah best dudes came down here from NYC and he swears by it, so I know it's not just me.

Ate some bbq in Kansas today.

I ate some bbq in Missouri a couple days ago. It was a little disappointing. The place has a good rep and they advertise their ribs as "St. Louis style" but I've had better spare ribs a dozen times. They weren't bad, they just weren't memorable.

I bet it wasn’t Pappy’s in STL.

Also, STL style is just the cut. It’s the spare rib with the tips and skirt cut off and squared up. It’s the most common cut for spare ribs.

Never heard of it but if an NYC dude says it then it is true. NYC'ers know their pizza, at least thats what one of them told me once.

I dunno man. NYC’ers can be pretty foolish

Yup, thats a Noo Yowker talking in that tweet

Wow. Speechless.

Swap BBQ with pizza/pastasciutta and New York with Italy and he has a point...

Yeah, well, this guy isn't an asshole or elitist about it or anything

This place was in Columbia, west of St. Louis. Buckinghams BBQ I think it was called

Memphis has the best ribs.

With all due respect, it’s NY. See Tweet posted above.

Sorry, I disagree. If you want ribs, you have to go to Central in Memphis

 

[RaleighBlues]

Anyone been to Skylight in Ayden? I’ve been told it’s the best BBQ in N.C., thinking about making a side trip on my way to OBX.

No, I was just joking. Been to Central, great ribs! Better than Rendezvous IMO. My favorite ribs are still Bogart’s or Pappy’s in STL.

Rendezvous is for the nostalgia of Memphis, behind the Peabody hotel.

Haven’t been to the Skylight Inn yet but that guy’s grandson started a joint called Sam Jones Whole Hog BBQ in Winterville, NC. I’ve been there several times and it’s outstanding. Bought some of their sweet bbq sauce and it’s been legit on country style ribs, pork chops, and pulled pork sammies. Definitely recommend Sam Jones, you can even grab a beer.

Can confirm, Memphis ribs are good.

I've had food from there before. It was okay but it had been sitting in a fridge for a day so it wasn't fresh.

I like Wilbers in Goldsboro, a must stop if you're ever headed for New Bern and/or Morehead City.

I've only been to Rendezvous once, but based on that visit, I don't get the hype. I've gotten ribs from gas stations that had more flavor.

IMO, it’s a little like Arthur Bryant’s in KC. It has the name, the history, but there are far better options. I really liked the ribs at Corky’s in Memphis.

My favorite ribs are in my backyard, off of my smoker.

All I know right now is there's some goddamn hero at the generic cereal factory putting granola clusters in the fake Raisin bran and fake Lucky Charms marshmellows in the fake Cocoa Pebbles and I would like to find this goddamn hero and kiss them with a gentle intensity which rivals the first time I kissed my wife.
