Ribs in Memphis
Source Memphis barbecue is exactly how I like it: sweet and wet. The sauce is sugary but still has a tang. I couldn’t finish my half rack at the airport. Not wanting to waste food, I considered taking my last piece home to my husband. I decided against it based upon the mess it would […]
