Great
ribs!
I
should
preface
this
by
saying
that
I
am
much
more
of
a
dry
rub,
sauce
on
the
side
kind
of
barbecue
guy,
But
my
friend
really
played
this
place
up
and
this
was
the
1st
time
I
had
been
there
in
the
2
years
that
I've
been
coming
to
this
part
of
Illinois.
The
inside
is
dark
and
has
a
dive
bar
feel,
which
I
personally
enjoy,
though
I
know
it's
not
for
everyone.
They
really
played-up
the
pork
chops
and
the
baby
back
ribs,
so
I
had
both.
Pork
chop
was
juicy
and
tasted
as
though
it
was
smoked,
though
they
might
have
thrown
it
on
the
grill
to
mark
it
up
a
bit
for
the
meal.
Ribs
had
a
nice
carmelization
on
the
outside,
sauce
was
sweet
but
not
overly
so,
Really
enjoyed
how
tender
they
were
without
being
mushy.
The
oven
browns
were
basically
home
fries,
but
crispier.
Coleslaw
was
fine,
a
little
too
much
dressing
for
my
taste
but
not
wilted
or
chewy.
Cornbread
was
a
nice
touch.
I
barely
finished
the
meal,
the
portion
was
huge
and
very
satisfying.
Wish
I
had
heard
of
this
place
sooner.
Next
time
I
will
try
their
approach
to
brisket,
I'm
told
it's
equally
good.
Good
find
in
the
middle
of
a
neighborhood,
it
was
only
after
that
I
learned
that
this
place
has
been
featured
on
all
kinds
of
television
shows
and
"best
of"
lists.
Great
experience
overall.
