Was watching cooking shows on PBS yesterday and there was a segment on Dreamland Barbecue in Tuscaloosa, AL. Never ate there, but know it has a good reputation.
For years Dreamland served nothing but ribs. Now they have ribs and banana pudding. They're been in business about 60 years, so they must know ribs.
What I found interesting was that the pitmaster said that before they put the ribs in the smoker, they put nothing on them except a sprinkle of salt.
I've heard of people who used only salt, pepper and garlic powder, but never just salt.
Anyone ever tried that?
Is should say that they do use a generous amount of sauce on the ribs when they serve them. They have a store not too far from me in Atlanta, and I might try it except that by all accounts it isn't nearly as good as the original Tuscaloosa location.
