    Anyone who thinks mom and pop restaurants are on the verge of extinction would do well to visit TCs Rib Crib, a charming barbecue eatery featuring entrees made from centuries-old family recipes. The owners are Hurricane Katrina evacuees who relocated to Las Vegas after losing everything in the disaster. Fortunately, the secrets to their unique tangy barbecue sauce, Big Sams Baked Beans, Cousin Joes Greens, and other specialties such as their potato salad and fried okra all survived the New Orleans floods. Since 1902, the recipe for TCs barbecue sauce is so closely guarded that only only one member of the family knows it. The restaurant is an extension of the home of its founders, with family pictures covering the walls and a familiar greeting for every customer. David Hofstede

      Friendly service is just the beginning. Fresh food, delicious, down-home, authentic bbq. No wonder there's a line out the door! Reasonably priced, too! If I were to make any suggestion, it would be to buy out the nail salon next door to make more room!

    • Best BBQ in town!

      Review rating : 5out of 5   cheekymonkey478 - 07/15/2007

      Let me preface this by saying that my husband and I are from Kansas City. We are BBQ snobs and make no apologies for it. We have been hoping against hope that someday we would find the kind of BBQ we've been missing. T.C's is that place. This place is amazing, we were blown away. The food is fantastic and the family atmosphere is warm and friendly. We will definitely be going back. If you like real BBQ, this is the place to go. The prices are extremely reasonable and the hours and location make it easy to get to. This is now the only BBQ place I will going to.

    • Homecooked Spare Ribs and more

      Review rating : 5out of 5   tceleset - 03/24/2007

      I love ribs!!! But to be more exact, I love spare ribs. I grew up on them. My dad cooked them year round on the 4 grills we had in the backyard. He also made a great sauce. So needless to say, I am picky about my "bought" ribs. TC's Rib Crib comes mighty close to home for me and their mac and cheese is pretty good to. Try them out and while you’re there enjoy the family photos on the walls.
