Rib Night @ Ikea

Red Hot ribs are also very nice. Obviously, not pork candy like at Blue Ribbon, but very, very good for the price.

I have heard Ikea has kick ass ribs for the price and portion. But I am interested in trying for myself. My wife swears by Ikea ice cream.

Flexi asks,

"what was so funny about PorkerSloper's thread?"

Perhaps it was my Gobots comment. I laughed out loud when I wrote it. But I guess I should be more modest.

Ewww- fuckin' gross.

willregistersoon,

Blue Ribbon has the sauced up kind, as does Red Hot, but for both, the sauce is thick and controlled. The key for Red Hot is that they have to brown the ribs enough. The ribs are always good there, but the more they brown em, the better I like em!

I actually wanted to try the Ikea ribs out when we just bought some stuff there this month, but we stood in line so long that the store closed

I should try Russo's again, I just never go in there because I love Pizza Plus so much. I feel at home at Pizza Plus and love their hearty food!

Let us know how the Ikea ribs turn out.

And for one last Red Hot plug, we have had food show up at our door ten minutes after ordering on numerous occasions. They do a remarkable job!

Flexi,

Have a nice day.


willregistersoon,

Let me add, both Blue Ribbon and Red Hot manage to have a sauced up rib but not dripping, that is what I meant by controlled. For the record, I have been through the south several times, and just don't enjoy the dry rub ribs nearly as much as the sauced up kind. Next time I get the rib entree at Blue Ribbon, I will ask them if they can give cole slaw instead of mashed potatoes.

those fries look gross in the picture

"how much assembly is required with the Ikea ribs?"

Very funny. I can tell you this, I would have very little trouble taking them apart!

I have heard a lot of people going to IKEA for dinner. It's cheap and they have a gorgeous view. love their swedish meatballs. not sure about ribs though, I am tempted

I ate ribs once and it was IMPOSSIBLE to get rid of those five pounds. How do ya do it? =P~

IKEA meatballs = dog food. The thought of 'em is the only thing that would make me want to eat at Aunt Suzie's,where they must be better.

^^ That is sad in a way

They stopped the weekday ferry service? maybe not enough people were using it. Anyway, what was part of the promise to Red hook residents, that they would get a free ferry service whether or not they were actually shopping at IKEA?

That seems fair to me, I always thought the ferry was for their customers anyway.

Which is sad, the fact that I know people who go there to eat for the cheap food and great view or the fact that I am tempted to go for the ribs? LOL
