israel4ever Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 I have always been a "Carson's Ribs" man...can anyone recommend better ribs? I am on the lookout for the best bbq! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Prawn Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 I don't like ribs myself, but I like bbqing. We have to get the tank filled, but since we just bought the grill at the end of last season, I think we will be doing plenty grilling this summer.

Wong & Owens Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 A place on Roosevelt Road in Berwyn called Giovanni's used to have the best ribs I ever had, but I know the ownership there has changed and I haven't been back there in awhile, so I don't know if they're still as good.

southsider2k5 Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 The best BBQ in the world comes from Texas. No questions asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giovanni's is "bla" now. Their sauce it to "runny", IMO. Personally I like The Patio. But Carson's is very good, also. Nothing beats the back yard variety though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing beats the back yard variety though That figures, there wasn't another decent rib place within 10 miles of me. I was never a big fan of the Patio, but Carson's is still a good bet. Another place I thought of that had good ribs was the Red Barrel, on Archer and around Kostner or so. The place has a new name now, something like SZutukus, so I doubt they sell ribs anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you live in a house, you have to get the gas company out to run a line from the gas line to your grill. That way you never have to worry about filling the tank. Very convenient.

That way you never have to worry about filling the tank. Very convenient. Nicor won't run a natural gas or propane line. You have to hire an independent. We had it done while building the house we're in now. Very convenient indeed.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Know of any places in Texas that will ship to Chicago? Not me. Maybe Kap or Tex can help you out with that one. Either that or a google might be in order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapkomet Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Know of any places in Texas that will ship to Chicago? There's actually a story - then another to follow: I used to work for an airline, the exec team is from here, but at the time, they were all living in Indiana. And they would for company get togethers they would always order BBQ and fly it up to Indiana. Then, having not been to Texas, that was always some good food! Of course, I'm convinced that is why management moved back to Texas, and they brought me with them, so that's why I'm here. Anyway, part II is there's a couple of companies from Memphis that do mail order BBQ. Difference between Memphis BBQ is it's dry BBQ, generally here in Texas it's wet. Of course when you put the sauce on it's all good. www.corkysbbq.com is one place that mail orders from Memphis, it's pretty good stuff. There's others. Do a google search and you'll come up with quite a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Lone Star or Rudy's for me. There is another place near Corpus Cristi and I cannot remember the name, also excellent. Y'all don't know B-B-Que until you've had Texas B-B-Que. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reddy Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 They're not the BEST ribs, but Dick's Last Resort is fun enough that it makes up for it. Dont get me wrong... the ribs are still really good, just not the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
