| - Just went to Mission BBQ the night before, and was still cravin' some slow cooked goodness. Ribsticks is in a strip mall next to Whole Foods, easy to miss but glad we stopped in!
Tried the sampler of spare rib, pulled pork and brisket. All had a healthy serving of homemade brown BBQ sauce. The sauce is delicious by itself and really enhances the spare rib and brisket. I would have preferred a Carolina vinegar dressing for the pulled pork, but it was still good. The quality of the preparation, flavor was excellent.
Another added bonus -- the iced tea was ah-maz-ing! Tastes like it was sun brewed. The desserts, though I did not try, also looked great. Will try next time I come by.
Here's the weird part -- the shop is run by a super friendly Korean couple. The husband is professionally trained and was a professor in hotel management. It sounds like he put a lot of thought into the concept, decor, and, most of all, the food -- all of it works! Not so surprising that Koreans are good at BBQ, huh? (Not racist btw) Try them out... We need more places like this on the eastside!
