BBQ08 - Good sign number one: the smell. Good sign number two: Cops eat here. Good sign number three: The countermen want to talk about their food. The brisket was outrageous, with a thick black crust, a ragged red layer, and a juicy core that pulled apart easily (it’s cooked fifteen hours over mesquite). The chicken was moist, and the pulled pork was smokier than the greasy ribs. Bottles of the thin sauce (with a little kick) are kept in warming trays. MH . Read Article. |

Lexus Magazine 2007 says this about Baker's Ribs: "One of the best barbecue meals of my life was eaten in the parking lot adjacent to the Commerce Street Baker’s outlet in Dallas (they have nine others in the state). Fresh from the airport, I arrived two minutes after the doors closed. “I’ll eat whatever you have left” I told them through the locked door. “Please!” And then, a moment of grace: Barbecue of an indeterminate type was handed over, money changed hands, and I trudged to the parking lot. Heaven." |
