2 /5 Don Crossley: If youre looking for Awesome Ribs in Fairfield, keep looking.
I visited The BBQ House because of the outstanding reviews.
I ordered 4ea. individual Spareribs, Dry, @ ($3.00ea.) a 1+ lb. Dino Rib ($38.89), 10pc. bone in wings (naked) ($10.99), a Brisket sandwich with potato salad ($15.95) and a pulled pork sandwich with fries and Mac & Cheese ($13.95)
Let me start off by saying "Everything" was salty.
Possibly because of being heavy handed with the seasoning salt.
The Ribs were "not" fall off the bone, but Ive had worse. (5)
The Dino Rib was very juicy and cooked very well. (6)
The Wings were tiny and overly seasoned like the other items but was welcome and acceptable on wings. (7)
The Brisket sandwich was for my Mother-in-Law, and I havent heard back.
The Pulled Pork sandwich with Fries were both salty according to the misses, but she did say the Mac & Cheese was very good.
We wont be craving this place anytime soon, but Im sure we will try them again, once theyve had a chance to refine their recipes to work with Dickeys old equipment.

I thought I would try them again because anyone can have an off day, I showed up at 11am today (Tuesday) to order a couple of Brisket sandwiches and a half a dozen Spareribs, I was told the Ribs wont be ready for 3-4 more hours... That makes no sense to me... Its a BBQ joint. I understand the other meats might be ready to serve because it takes hours to smoke a brisket and can be done overnight but not having Ribs ready at opening.. Un-For-giv-able...!
