the ribs at the draft house actually surprised me...not really worth it unless you go when they are on special (thursday i think)

pretty sure i remember enjoying the ribs at tripps

bbq & ribs co. = no

1/21/2007 3:48:36 PM

i haven't been there, but there's a place called Ribs by Art http://www.ribsbyart.com off rock quarry road. a client of mine was telling me about it.

1/21/2007 3:54:24 PM

Twisted Fork at Triangle Town Center has really good ribs - you can pick pork, beef, or lamb and 6 different sauces. Mondays are all-you-can eat ribs, plus soup and salad, for $15.99

Fox and Hound at North Hills are pretty good too

Are they still in buisness? Their ribs were great, but the sauce (imo) was way too sweet

1/21/2007 7:28:04 PM

Carsons

but yeah, its in chicago

1/21/2007 9:00:20 PM

Both O'Brian's restaurants in Raleigh have closed down. The one in Durham near 40 and 55 may still be around. And yes, their ribs were/are awesome.

I also suprisingly liked the dry rub Ruby Tuesday's had before they fucked over their whol menu. Not sure if they serve tem anymore since you can't put them on a bun.

Pretty sure there is one still open in Cary.

1/21/2007 9:48:19 PM

I've had ribs by art. They're stellar

1/21/2007 11:00:09 PM

^ I had Ribs by Art today

They are by far the best ribs in Raleigh

1/21/2007 11:38:04 PM

damons one of the best. i grew up on damons up in md and missed them so much until the one across from rbc opened up. hams has good ones too but depends on the location, the on in ch isnt that great but the one in mebane is awesome

1/22/2007 12:41:30 AM

obriens was always my favorite until they closed, so i dont know now. there was a place on capital called the rack shack that for some reason was better than any other place though. it was only takout.

1/22/2007 1:18:09 AM

do it yourself

7/13/2013 5:17:17 PM

the ribs on the TGI Fridays commercial i just saw look good

but they probably taste like frozen rubber

7/13/2013 6:53:58 PM

Darryl's

7/13/2013 9:58:38 PM

logan's are actually pretty decent
spanky's on franklin st in chapel hill are really good
village draft house used to be amazing but then they were not nearly as good after the renovation

7/20/2013 9:27:36 AM

the pit. they're barbecue tastes like smithfield's but their ribs are legit.

7/20/2013 9:23:14 PM

i'm telling y'all, ribs are super easy to do at home on just about any type of grill. you can get 3 racks already trimmed to st. louis at costco for cheap. babybacks are only like $.20/lb more. throw on whatever rub you want and cook them indirect until they pass the bend test. then you get to sit around and drink beer while they cook.

7/20/2013 9:49:19 PM

7/20/2013 9:54:28 PM

not to mention that most of the restaurants mentioned in this thread are just opening packs of cooked, sauced, and frozen ribs from who-knows-where and heating them up. if that's all you want, then they have them in the freezer section at the store.

7/20/2013 10:01:21 PM

Aviator's in Fuquay are smoked and grilled. Plus their beer is pretty good. I'm pretty upset that I can't even walk in there (or drink beer for that matter). When I loved meat, I loved their wings most of all, and I'm not a wing person at all.
I'm just not too thrilled about their service.
The brewery and bar is on the other side of the street. Its nice to hang out on a summer evening too.

Anyone been to Shane's Rib Shack at Triangle Town Center? Been meaning to try it out sometime just havent gotten around to it yet just wondering if its worth it. Also wanna try out the Mexican place in the same shopping center.

7/22/2013 10:34:42 AM

I've been to a Shane's Rib Shack in Greensboro. I was definitely not impressed. It's fast food quality, so if that's what you're looking for then give it a shot.

Another vote for Ole Time ribs. They were delicious both times I had them.

7/22/2013 9:18:07 PM

i had ribs at ole time. wasn't impressed. i think they were cooked in an oven.

7/22/2013 9:38:32 PM

Last couple times I ate at Oldey Time I wasn't impressed with any of it. I usually just go to Cooper's or The Pit instead.
