Good ribs require no sauce because it detracts from the flavor of the BBQ.

Sauce on good ribs or brisket is like ketchup on a good steak.

LOL - that's an opinion. I've been BBQing for over twenty years and I like a good sauce on my ribs - so do most of my satisfied guests .

So, keeping on subject, give us your opinion on biscuits as that's what this thread is about - not your opinion on BBQ .

Thanks for the info. I don't think that I have ever been to any of them, especially since chicken is one of my least favorite foods. We don't have any of them in our area but I think that a Popeye's is opening this summer in our area.

You've never seen anyone eat a sausage biscuit?

Ribs that are slathered in sauce are usually terrible. A light coating of a thin vinergery sauce is the way to go IMO. I do not at all enjoy the thick smokey sauces that are popular in certain parts of the country. But good BBQ is an opinion. And I have certainly had delicious ribs that were dry rubbed only. And in contrast, I had some ribs in Cincinnati that were swimming in sauce at the Montgomery Inn. I was like ewwwww when I seen them. But the sauce was so different then any thing I had tried before I actually liked them a lot. It was almost like eating candy coated ribs, but in a good way.

The whole anti-sauce attitude is part of the Texas barbecue culture (mostly Central Texas, since East Texans have no real qualms about barbecue with sauce). They have a religious belief that great barbecue doesn't "need" sauce and that putting any on there would ruin a potentially quality product. I'm a native Texan who disagrees completely, as I've enjoyed wet and dry ribs.

I don't eat brisket with sauce, though. Not because I think it's against the rules but simply because I don't think they go together well, whether the meat is good or not.

A lot of care and genius can go into a great sauce, so pairing with a well prepared meat can definitely be a tasty treat. But I digress...

Don't hate FC and biscuits together, but I didn't grow up eating that in the deep south. We always had either mashed potatoes and gravy or fries, sometimes rice and gravy. Usually no bread was served. Not cornbread. That was reserved for vegetable heavy meals such as peas, cabbage, squash, etc. Didn't get FC with those meals; usually it was minute steaks (veal cutlets) or brisket or roast.

Biscuits were usually a morning thing, served with sausage gravy on top.
