re: Central City BBQ New Orleans

Hey guys. I'm new to TD, and this my first reply on the site. I'm not from New Orleans, but have been to every bbq restaurant in the area multiple times. I can go into a detailed opinion (I have a good bit of bbq experience myself) on each location, but will primarily stick to the subject at hand - CCBBQ.
Rob (not going to call him Chef, because he has everyone including his wife calling him Chef) needs to focus more on a consistent product, and less time on trying to emulate Franklin. By the way, he's never been to Franklin's. The first problem I see with CCBBQ is the slow moving line, and the reason is Rob. He's too slow of a cutter for a line of any length, because he waving and talking to the people in line and constantly washing his knives. Those lines aren't that long to have a customer standing in them for 45+ minutes. Last week I had brisket, 2 ribs, slaw, and potato salad. The ribs were very tough, brisket was slightly dry, potato salad was good, and slaw was completely flavorless. Burnt ends seem to be a popular subject on here. He's always running out, because he's only using a portion of the point muscle for them. Instead of offering lean, fatty, or both.....just offer sliced flat and burnt ends. Separate both muscles and cube the entire point for the burnt ends. If he really knew how to cook a brisket the flat wouldn't be dry, and he could offer more burnt ends. His spoonbread, isn't that his Hagar to Voodoo BBQs Roth? Another thing about this guy is his love of hash tags and passive aggressive remarks towards other bbq restaurants. My favorite has to be #wheredoyouplugthisthingin. He must be referring to the leaf blower that he has plugged in outside for himself and the other pit guys to stoke the fires. Well that's enough for tonight. I'm quickly becoming a fan of TD, and look forward to being more active on here. Later guys.

I've only went once but I only stood in line for 5 minutes. There was probably 10 people in front of me. Lines moved pretty quick actually since they take your order and you go sit and wait on your order.

Sorry about the long reply last night.

This is a poorly formulated troll.

Being new, I guess you can teach me proper TD etiquette. I don't think I was being a troll at all last night, just merely giving an honest opinion backed by facts about my experience there. Maybe the line isn't always 45 minutes, but it was for me that day.

you need to make sure the image url you paste in here is the full link the image itself, usually ending in .jpg.

The flavor wasn't bad on the ribs, just needed more cook time.

Nah. Are they required to eat his ribs?
