    a bottle of mild sauce
    Steve B.

    I hate to say it, this place was just plain bad. If you have ever read my reviews, you know I want hot food to be hot.. I got the two meat platter with ribs and beef (not brisket, beef - that should have been a warning) with their tri-tater, spicy fries and mayo coleslaw. The tri-tater is a frozen hash brown patty in the shape of a triangle. The spicy fries were not spicy and they were not hot, meaning they were cold. The slaw was okay, just drenched in the mayo-based dressing that it came with. The ribs were so over cooked, that the meat was just mushy and I got a couple of the bones that are often at the ends of the ribs and when I bit them, they just disintegrated as well. The beef was some kind of stringy, tough, flavorless meat. Neither one of the meats really had any smoke on them at all. Not a fan and as other reviewers have pointed out, way too many other, better, options out there. The sauces were okay.

    I think this is suppose to be beef.

    I wish a negative star review existed; however it doesn't so here I am leaving a much overrated one star ranking. To be honest with you, it was the flashy digital sign that drew me to "Ricks" house of garbageQue, so I only have myself to blame. Also, I should have looked for smoke stacks because I feel confident the meats came from a bag, possibly labeled "not fit for human consumption". Fries were okay, as well as the mustard slaw, I ordered the beef and chicken combo. The beef looked and tasted like "insert expletive here" and the chicken was delivered in a cup. Im going to quit writing now because every time I think about this nightmare meal my blood pressure goes through the roof.

    Beef sandwich at Rick's BBQ.

    Stopped in today for a Beef sandwich w/ one side, picked spicy fries for my side. Meat was dry, not much flavor at all, was edible when I drenched it in some sauce. Fries were decent though. Was still hungry, so ordered some cheesecake for dessert -- that was very good. A weak 3 Star rating. With all the other BBQ places about in Northern Alabama, doubt I'll give any other Rick's BBQ locations a try again.

    The baked potato salad might be the best side item I've ever ordered.
