Ate there June 11, 2011 with 2 family members who wanted babyback ribs. The restaurant was running a “special” so we asked for two orders ($19.99 each). When we got our food, the ribs didn’t look like babyback ribs (I have cooked them for years). We figured regional differences. But as we ate we all came to the conclusion that these were short ribs, not babybacks. After we ate, I spoke with the lead cook who assured me they were babyback ribs. Why? It said so on the bag from Sysco, the distributor. The cook in a BBQ restaurant can’t identify cuts of meat the restaurant is suppose to specialize in! The cook wouldn’t acknowledge his ignorance nor offer compensation. I thought I’d write a letter to the owner but f*^k it. Now I’ll just tell the world you don’t get what you order because the cook doesn’t know the difference
