    T-Bones Kansas City Style BBQ - BBQ Ribs were tender and fell off the bone!   Definitely our #1 pick next time!

    T-Bones Kansas City Style BBQ

    First review. That is kind of fun. We drive a regular Highway 65 route between Minneapolis and…read moreour lake home near Deer River. Today (5/27/2021) we saw signs for the new T-Bones. As a home BBQ-er and a certified KCBS BBQ Competition judge I had to stop. The owner said they'd been open for five days. I bought brisket and a couple of rib bones, my favorite two meats. It's not dinner time yet, but I have sneaked samples of both. Good BBQ IMO does not require sauce and this is good BBQ. (They do offer several sauces but I did not indulge.) The brisket was great. Dark, smoky bark and a good flavor. My sample was sliced from the area where the point overlays the flat with a layer of fat in between. I like to have a little fat (= flavor) so this was perfect for me. Others who prefer less fat might want to remove it or ask for slices from the flat only. This was much better than comp brisket because the norm at comps is to trim every microgram of fat. The result is I don't really like comp brisket all that much -- too dry. The ribs were very good, too. By my standards and comp standards, they were slightly overcooked. At that point there is a very fine between slightly overcooked and mush, but T-Bones stayed safely away from mush. Also, many casual eaters of BBQ ribs want and expect falling-off-the-bone meat, so it is no surprise that T-Bones is going slightly in that direction and I do not fault them for that. To repeat: The ribs were very good. (For reference, here is the KCBS standard: "When sampling a properly cooked contest rib the area of the meat where the bite is taken should be pulled cleanly from the bone with very little effort. The exposed bone of a well-cooked rib will often dry immediately. Ribs should be moist, flavorful, and possess good texture. ... When a rib is overcooked, most or all the meat comes off the bone when sampled. Additionally, the meat of an overcooked rib has a tendency to be mushy and have a poor texture.") So, people: Go there. Spend money. Make a special trip if necessary. I want to have this guy selling BBQ along our route for years into the future.

    So you need to know what you are getting into when you get here. A rural MN bar on one side with a…read moresupper club on the other. Nice menu and as a whole for a rural MN place it is pretty good. Salad bar is definitely a step above the typical place like this that only has iceberg lettuce, croutons, Bac-os, cheese, cherry tomatoes and carrot shavings with french and ranch for dressings. As a whole, a step above the others in its food genre. For that I'll give it 4 stars. But if your arteries are feeling healthy and you want a good old fashioned greasy meat sandwich have I got the 5 star recommendation for you. The ribeye steak sandwich. Might be sacrilegious to put a nice steak on bread, BUT.... Freshly cut and grilled ribeye, toasted bread and lots of butter. Do you need anything more? A good beer to wash it down? Sure. But that's it. I can't get away from this every time we go through here. It is simply fantastic. Again, juicy steak, butter, toasted bread and more butter. Wow. Comes with fries I think. I don't really care what it comes with actually. Probably will contribute to my early death from heart disease. But oh well. Life can't be all salads and smoothies.

    Salad bar was adequate but not what it used to be. The cheese steak soup was outstanding. I…read moreshould have just gotten the soup and salad bar but came to try the chicken dinner special. Broasted too long, dust for a crust and dry meat with little to no seasoning. Three people in our group got it and nobody ate a second piece. Mashed potatoes were instant, which was a let down because how hard is it to boil a potato? Roll on the plate was nice to see but there was no butter. Walleye bites was the other order and they were overcooked, dry and bland. Color of the batter gave away the age of the oil; dark and old. Service was so so, nobody asked how the food was and when paying the bill there was no checking to see how the meal was or a thanks, see you next time etc. Heard good things about the chicken, thought we'd try it, glad we did because I don't have to go for the Friday fish fry now. Sorry but I cannot see trying this again.
