Some slabs are good and some are bad = NO meat that can be seen. That being said, and you want to stay in "S. Meridian" area, go to H&H and get a burger! JUST kidding. Earl's sounds closest and can have a few beers. But Bedlam BQ at NE 50th, just E of Lincoln, kicks butt, but not a place to hang with a few buds, drink beer and BS for awhile. And also closes early. NO one has said (that I saw) Iron Star = upscale BQ, is how they advertise, but ribs ARE good! And sides are all spicey and good to great. It is NW 36th and Shartel. Leo's has sucked the last 2 times I've been there (2 years ago) SO I quit going. A few co-workers and myself took 2 consultants to Iron Star yesterday (Same thing = IN OK WANT BQ) They had ribs and loved them. Another co-worker says Swadley's. A friend says Jacks (NW 39th E of Meridian) So like I said hit and miss on the rib slab, and depending on cooking preference = dry rub or saucey.... Heck the beers should make any ribs good!! Stay at hotel, visit, drink, bring 3 slabs of ribs with a quart of slaw and a Qt of B Beans! :-) You'll have fun regardless = enjoy!p.s. Go to Van's and support the local crew. :-)</blockquote>
