You just can't go wrong. Those fries are absolutely awesome. The chili makes them. I've never had chili this good before. The flavor, the huge chunks of brisket. Just amazing. Word on the street is there are also bacon chocolate chip cookies. Mr. Motz says they're ridiculous and who better to trust? There have been some oven problems of late, however, so you might not be able to get a hold of them. Where are some of the other best chili cheese fries you've had? Bill,

You're an animal. I want pics of that. <strong>Stinkus the Pincus,</strong> Sounds like I've met my match in love for RUB. I definitely need to give the pulled pork a whirl. Nice description of that and the fried Oreos.

They usually run out of the good stuff early so that wasn't surprising. You should definitely try Hill Country but its not the ribs that are supreme, its the sausage, the brisket and prime rib. <strong>Phil,</strong> Sounds good man, I'll throw some Mex up next week for sure. <strong> FOB,</strong> These are spare ribs, as I mentioned, so you're right, they won't just fall off the bone but they do come off pretty easily. The mark of good ribs isn't those where the meat falls off the bone but when it comes off easily with a light bite. RUB's spare ribs arent that tender but they're close and they taste great. <strong>Rudy McBagel,</strong> Aren't you the cover story? Bringing bagels and hot dogs into the bedroom? Timothy Allen,
