I think it depends on what state you’re Q comes from. The Carolinas are more vinegar-based. Then it depends on what they’re smoking with cherry, Hickory, Apple. I don’t really think it’s a fact of it’s good bad or in different it’s what you’ve grown up with when it comes to barbecue. I am not a fan of vinegar-based barbecue. Oak wood is ok but just do not like the smoking method.

Disclaimer: I am the last person to judge ribs. Growing up in Brooklyn, a typical “barbecue” was franks, burgers and chicken cooked on a butane gas grill in a friend’s backyard. So what do I know? Also, my all time favorite recipe would be top quality ribs prepared in an upscale Chinese restaurant with a little duck sauce on the side. So take my comments with a grain of grits …
- - - - - - I loved these ribs. Since I am not a big fan of BBQ sauce, I asked that it not be added to the ribs but served on the side. I could smell the earthy, smokey aroma of these ribs on the plate. They are cooked low and slow and were fall of the bone tender. I did dip a little in the sauce and found it was not as offensively sweet as I thought it would be. My husband, who does not eat Pork, had an order of Beef Ribs which he thoroughly enjoyed. (NOTE: These are NOT on the menu but we had special ordered them and Matt graciously accommodated us by cooking up a rack). I also loved the cole slaw. It definitely tasted home made and was less sweet (which we prefer) and drier than the cole slaw at KFC which we also like. We did not try the beans. So I don’t know how true blue, BBQ aficionados would rate/rank these but this is my review. I loved the meal but take it from where it comes. LOL

Don't worry about your qualifications. I judge BBQ contests sanctioned by the KCBS, using their standards. When all is said and done, the absolute best BBQ is the BBQ that you enjoy. Same goes for pizza, chili and so on. |

Glad to hear you enjoyed the pulled pork. Will try and stop in on Saturday....sounds like a delicious meal to me.
(Never have tried the pulled pork at Oakwood, but I do enjoy their ribs. Everyone enjoys something different...that’s just the way it is...)

Bingo. Sometimes a "dirty water" Sabrett on 6th Avenue can be just as satisfying as a porterhouse in Peter Luger.

Oakwood has very good baby back ribs. I’ve eaten a rib or two and paid twice as much. In the last 10 years we have taken several guests to Oakwood, and they all (everyone) agree. The new place OP mentioned is worth a visit soon.

Thanks Ecuadog. LOL dirtbanker – here is a translation.
Sabrett: A company that made hotdogs and buns and produced the street carts that were prevalent in NYC starting in the early to mid forties. Dirty Water: The hot dogs sold from these carts were boiled and would sit in the hot water until sold. It was rumored that they had a unique taste because the water was never changed - - hence the nickname dirty water dogs. 6th Avenue was the former name of the now Avenue of the Americas in NYC where a preponderance of these hot dog carts could be found. Peter Lugers: One of the most famous steak houses in NYC. Actually located in Williamsburg, a neighborhood in Brooklyn. So now you have it.

Best BBQ I've had was at the original " county line BBQ " in Austin Texas. IMO texas BBQ and Tex Mex sets the standard to compare BBQ and Tex mex Mexican food. So far I've found none close down here. But , I will try it with open mind.

Try Artman's BBQ
Try Artman's BBQ, Hwy 42 (north end of The Villages). Everybody has their "best", try it, it is the BEST in my opinion. From Hwy 301, turn right onto Hwy 42, first Bldg on right after RR tracks. Closed on Monday & Tuesday.
My favorite is the Papa Special. |
