This is Texas BBQ like we had in So. Texas and as far as I am concerned, the best around. You want hot ribs, go to Hot Licks, but if you want authentic Texas BBQ, go to Red River. My only regret is that the resturant in Castle Shannon closed (never had enough parking). Now I have to drive 40 min to get my rib fix!! John
Pittsburgh, PA
Ribs in the 'burgh (AKA I need ribs...NOW!)
Try the House of Sauce on Centre Ave in Oakland. (near the dairy queen)
Barb D.Wilson's in the Mexicanh War Streets on the North Side. REAL smoked barbecue, great hot sauce, take out only, zero ambience. Go now.

I just had some nice food at Eliot's Rib Shack on Rt. 51 near the Century 3 mall. I like mine a bit sweeter, but they were good. They also have excellent smoked pork chops and crisp fries. Not bad for a rib place that has sit down. Richard R. wrote: >Wilson's in the Mexicanh War Streets on the North Side. REAL smoked >barbecue, great hot sauce, take out only, zero ambience.

Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, shut yourself up in your room and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
