A while back my 85 year old Mother sat at my table eating her 4th rib that I’d labored over for hours. She exclaimed “ Rib Crib has the best ribs I’ve ever eaten “. I’m not shocked what she says anymore (though I broke her plate on ribs as a note to myself “. My town has a large number of Q joints, some chains, some independent. So I got to wondering, have Q joints upped their game in the years I’ve avoided them?? Not to often—but once twice a year I’d get spicy sausage and sides, never getting brisket ribs pork chicken etc.
After self reflection and some mid shelf whiskey I suggested to the Bride that once or twice per month or 6 weeks we visit a local Q Joint and split a combo plate.
Tyler’s, Spicy Mike’s, Rudy’s and today Rib Crib. We ordered take out and split the three meat combo of ribs, brisket and polish sausage. Sides of potato salad (almost said tatoe) makes me smile and Mac n cheese.
I think Food reviews are very subjective. So I won’t go there. We ate in the perfect environment. No loudness rudeness nose blowing booger yankers- our kitchen table.
Just a thought- Q-Joints have upped their game over the last 10 Years. . They’ve all been different but all very good.
Don’t be afraid to drop the snobbishness and support your local Q Joint.
