The 6 worst ribs at restaurant chains according to diners

[lightbright]

Ribs are not one of those menu items that are good even when they’re bad (like, say, pizza). There is nothing worse than dry, tough ribs, prepared without any love, made with low-quality meat and sub-par ingredients. While many eateries have perfected the art of the most delicious ribs, others fall short and leave fans hungry. What makes it worse is meat is so expensive these days, ribs aren’t cheap—so you’re both hungry and out of pocket. Here are seven of the worst ribs at restaurant chains, according to disappointed customers.

1. Tony Roma's©Tony Roma's

One customer was not impressed with the ribs at Tony Roma’s. “Listen, I don’t know if it was the day or the cook but I had a horrible experience ordering Ribs,” they said. “Ordered the Full Rack. What came after about 30 min was a dry, hard and tasteless rack of ribs. I mean, even the ones I bought at the supermarket were tastier.”

Customers complain about the inconsistency of the City Barbeque ribs. “We were craving BBQ and ordered ribs and smoked chicken, but the experience was disappointing. The ribs were tough, chewy, dry, and even gristly,” one disappointed guest said.

3. TGI Fridays

TGI Fridays’ ribs are mediocre, guests say. “Was riding past on my lunch break and saw a sign for $19.99 full rack of ribs, so decided to swing in and give it a try. I haven’t been to Fridays in years, and for good reason, but figured hey why not try again. Well I admit the ribs were very disappointing, not at all tender, had to struggle to get meat off the bone,” one customer said.

4. Rib Crib

Rib Crib is another chain with inconsistent quality, customers say. “The ribs were terrible. First off they were served at room temp if not cold. I had to use a knife to literally cut the ribs to separate them. I tried two and covered up the rest. I couldn’t eat them. They were close to rubber,” one guest said.

5. Logan's Roadhouse

The ribs at Logan’s Roadhouse vary wildly in consistency, with one reviewer saying they either hit the mark 100 percent or are just not worth it. “I had ribs both times and the first time they were wonderful; fall-off-the-bone tender. The second time, not so good; dried out and stringy,’ the customer shared.

6. Applebee's

Applebee’s ribs are not up to scratch, guests say. “So I got home late tonight and there was a promo for Applebee’s and it ended up being $20 for 3 meals. So figured why not, let’s add the ribs and see how they are…dont know what I was expecting. These things were brutal,” one customer said.

Yeah, I found out there Ribs ain’t worth shit the hard way.

Then mofos were dry and you almost had to pull your teeth out to get the meat off the bone.

I had had ordered there Ribs as takeout back in the 2000s when I was out of town for job training.

I brought them back to my hotel room. They weren’t bad, but they weren’t no where near what you can get at a legit BBQ joint.

All restaurant food is the same, it depends on who is back there cooking/preparing the meal and if they take pride in there work or just there for a paycheck.

Take this little bit of friendly advice..... with the price of pork these days.... nobody selling cooked ribs at an allegedly bargain price is selling quality

@blackbull1970 The one spot I go to sells a rack of ribs, and a small one at that, about 15-18in, , for $27.... I get a raw rack of ribs on sale for $2.96/lb thats at least ten inches longer at Food Depot... even as some pork prices have gone down the price never goes back down... the mistake they made is selling their sauce by the gallon for $30...whenever it's too hot to be smoking and grilling I buy their ribs....but that sauce be bangin'.....
