Such a variety that one can create endless combinations, go off the board, invent your own sandwich, try a smoked sausage burrito or a burnt end sandwich with the slaw and pickles right on top. Best side dishes anywhere.

Excellent barbecue! This is the place that made my husband stop whining about missing the barbeque that he grew up having in North Carolina!

Just finished some ribs last night. But I do think the HOT sauce used to be hotter.

Skip the pulled pork (not that its bad) and go straight to the Burnt Ends or Jamaican Jerk Chicken. Trust me. Coleslaw is delicious...cornbread is so so.

Coming from the Carolina's, it's a joy to find a yummy gold sauce. Blue-Ribbon is where I head when I'm looking for the real thing!

This place lacks the atmosphere and booze, but their BBQ is the best. No question. I go to cook-offs and championships too, so I'd say I'm an aficionado.

Great BBQ. The food is always well prepared and delicious, the place is really well run and the people working there are all very helpful. The ribs and pulled pork are great, but so is everything else I've tried.

We're there at least once a week. Love the specials, sides, and those yummy cobblers. The soups are great as well.

No frills, no extravagant decor. Just license plates on the wall and great food. Their side dishes are the best in town and the prices can't be beat.

Something for everyone in my family, from spicy Salmon rub to non-spicy brisket, and the only collard greens I will eat.

Superb very tasty and tender barbecue (everything on the menu), terrific side dishes, sauces to die for, extremely nice, thoughtful and professional owners and staff, and very fair prices. Blue Ribbon is very hard to beat, anywhere.
