King Ribs Bar-B-Q

When it is good, it is a home run. Can be hit and miss. Love to get a whole order of ribs in their hot sauce. Can last me three meals. Reheats well but is also good cold. The hot isn't all that hot, but it is super tasty. Very sweet but I like it that way. Super smoky meat with a nice crust to it. Employees usually very friendly. Take out only.

If you're in search of great Indianapolis BBQ, I can't think of a better place. than King Ribs, as long as you can live with its drive-thru only situation.

Last weekend, I picked up a half slab of ribs and a pound of pork BBQ.  For less than $24 we had six sizeable meals out of it.  The ribs were meaty and tender, practically falling off the bone.  We got the "mixed' hot and regular sauce and while it was a tad sweet for me, it was just about as spicy as it needed to be.  

The BBQ pork shoulder was excellent as well.  Plus they give you buns and bread so it's a complete dinner.

I pass this place often, and have been here before, but frankly I just forgot how great it is.  I'll be back with frequency.

The 3 star is probably more due to the fact that the lady that helped us was really friendly.

The wife and I went out here last weekend because we were craving bbq.  I gotta admit, as we rolled up to this place, I wasn't quite sure what to think.  This place is attached to a car wash, and it's all take out.  You can either place your order at the walk up window, or drive through.  It looked pretty sketchy, but hey, sometimes those are the places that have the best food.

Food- My wife got the rib dinner, and I got the rib tips dinner.  The ribs weren't the most tender (didn't fall off the bone or anything), but they were decent.  My rib tips also were not that tender, but decent.  With each of our dinners, we got two sides.  I got mac and cheese and beans, and my wife got mac n cheese with potato salad.  Sides were good not great.  And they also give you two slices of white bread

Value- each of our meals was just a little under $10.  They give you LOTS of food with each meal.  

Overall- a bit far for us to get to, especially for what it is.  The search continues.

Chuck Norris rating- still rolling eyes
