Generally we can get through a couple of full racks of ribs, so we&#8217;ll order half racks at up to four different booths so we can decide which sauce and whose sides (beans, cole slaw, etc.) we like the most.<\/p>\n<p>It usually all depends on our patience with the lineups, and what we&#8217;ve heard about the vendors. There&#8217;s generally up to a dozen different choices, each with their own sauce and style of ribs, so you have to choose wisely.<\/p>\n<p>This year, we were so famished we split up, with hubby hitting the Ribs Royale line and me heading over to the new addition this year, a roasted corn and yams stand. We opted for a full rack dinner with beans, thinking we&#8217;d get to a couple other places.<\/p>\n<p>The truth is that we were stuffed after our first stop. The ribs were good, though not the best we&#8217;ve ever had, and the corn on the cob and the roasted sweet potato were both delicious (it may help they were both doused in butter). We have yet to figure out what happened to our rib-etites, but either way next year we&#8217;re bringing company so we can eat more ribs!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ribfest has become an annual tradition for my husband and I (we figure this makes it five or six years running), and it&#8217;s a chance to support a local charity plus eat meat, so how much better could it get?
