Peebles Bar-B-Que
Reviews
I witnessed the end of an era today! I grew up in Central Florida eating at Peebles BBQ. It was the best back in the day. This was my second trip to Peebles in the last year and I was disgusted! I have NEVER had ribs that bad. They were abnormally small and so overcooked that they were all but inedible. They were dry beyond their excellent sauce's ability to save them and the outside of the meat was so overcooked that it was crunchy. Pork rib jerky was not what I was looking forward to. And apparently you are now limited to one glass of sweet tea because once my meal and drink hit the table I never saw the server again and left without so much as a hint of a refill. This was a horrible experience and left me sadly longing for the good ol' days! I'll not return to Peebles!
The first time I went it was just ok BBQ. And sufficient to bring home when you don't feel up to cooking or just to busy .. So this was my thought when stopped by yesterday to bring home some Ribs . Well I Gotta tell ya that's the last time I will be stopping in to support them . The Ribs were dry Greasy and mostly Bone and not the good bones . Im talking the tiny sideways cuts from the ends of the rib cage. what meat you could find on these so called ribs was Impossible to chew and everyone politely said no thank you I have never been more disappointed.. I spent 58 dollars and some change on food that no one would eat . Yep it was that bad I have two and a half pounds of ribs that I am trying to salvage some meat off of for my dog at this point.
ribs were sooo yummy, and I loved the sides. waitress was super busy but made time to explain or answer questions. we will be back frequently.
My Poppy and Nana own Peebles. I have eaten BBQ since I was a toddler. One woman has said that Peebles is racist. Yet, another kind lady has stated "Many times the place is so busy you sit with strangers which is quite unique. I find in fun to meet and talk with new people over great BBQ."
We love Peebles best ribs anywhere!! We go to Florida just to eat here!
