Ron’s BBQ

I like the food at Ron’s BBQ. I do, But I am not entirely sure that the food served here — strictly speaking — is barbeque
Barbeque is a technique where meat is cooked «low and slow», that is to say at low temperatures using indirect heat and smoke over a fairly long period of time, generally hours. The meat cooked in this fashion gets a signature reddish «smoke ring» just below the crusty edges. I saw very a little of this on the ribs I had here, and none at all on the chicken
While this all sounds very negative, I prefer to see the food here as more the type of «barbeque» one would have in the backyard on a nice summer day. Strictly speaking, thats grilling out, but bottom line is the food you get at those is great too, even if it isn’t barbeque in the truest sense of the word
The ribs, chicken, and other items I have sampled here were all reminiscent of what I’d eaten at summer backyard grills. That is to say — very enjoyable. Especially the ribs (see pic).
But — not barbeque
Other staples of the backyard grillout — burgers, metts, slaw, potato salad — are on the menu as well
The only thing I did not enjoy was the pulled pork, which seemed to be cooked well in advance, chopped finely, immersed in bbq sauce, chilled to be reheated in a microwave when ordered. It was perfectly edible, but just not something I’d order again
I should mention that this is an outdoor operation, so hours can and do vary due to weather. This is a cash only enterprise, and the owner/​operator Ron is very nice and easy to talk to. Parking is on the street next to the lot that Ron’s trailer is set up in, and there is a single picnic table there to eat at if you are so inclined

The BBQ is the best coming straight off the grill. You have to get there early so that you can get your meat because he may run out if you wait too late. The great thing about Ron is that he is mobile so he is able to participate in community functions and festivals.

Rons food is outstanding! Not only is the meat delicious (ribs, chicken) but the sides are wonderful. The potato salad is some of the best. Ron catered my husband, s birthday party for 100 people and everyone raved about the food. He set up his grill in our driveway. It was pretty cool!

I had Ron’s BBQ yesterday at a community match baseball program and the pulled pork was AWESOME! I loved it! Just the right touch of heat in the sauce. I heard from everyone else that the BBQ chicken was excellent as well but I didn’t have it myself. Everyone was talking about how good the food was. He was very nice and the cooking area was spotless. Very impressed!
