Got Smoked on the Go rib rack literally falls off the bone. I've never been a fan of ribs in the past, various reasons. I ordered the chopped beef samich, always excellent here. Each visit I heard interesting references to the rib racks. And it seemed like the customers all around had a rib rack. But I was still skeptical when Jim & Ann said I should at least try them. I finally gave in & placed an order for a rack for the next day.
Well let me tell you. Jim pulled it off the smoker when I arrived, then ceremoniously demonstrated how tender & juicy the rack actually was by picking one of the rib bones and just sliding it right out of the rack. Whut?? I didn't know that was even possible. I'm already standing there awestruck staring while he proceeds to illustrate that it was possible to remove all the long bones. I started having actual hope that these would be the ribs that I could finally actually eat and enjoy (bite, chew, without a knife to cut cross grain into baby pieces).
Ann & Jim are both smiling & laughing at my surprised expression, then encouraged me to take that first bite. Full of mixed emotions at this point, fear that the bite or taste wouldn't hold up to the visual expectations vs the thrill of possibly finding the elusive perfect rack.
Realize I gave up trying to eat ribs years and years ago.
I took my first bite. I barely had to chew. It literally melted in my mouth. It had the perfect resistance. The perfect chew. Perfect across the grain bite. I'm telling you folks, it was beyond perfect. Uptown New York fancy chef perfect. So perfect that I didn't even feel bad that I ate my fill in the car before getting it home to put what was left on the table for my husband for what was supposed to be a sit down dinner. No remorse either. Lol.

This place far exceeded my expectations and I can say the sliced brisket sandwich I ordered is easily in my top 5 best brisket sandwiches ever had. Drive through was fast and a sandwich w 2 sides is only $12. No reason you should ever go to a Dickeys when this place is open
