The Red Mosquito BBQ Shack

fried plantains as a side for smoked ribs: brilliant, insane, or somewhere in between?

Sounds good to me. A barbecue place near me puts a little dash of brisket rub on their french fries--I'm curious if that might be good for these too.

are we talking a pre- or post-fry dash?

Post. Like the seasoned fries a lot of places do but with their own rub. It's pretty damn good.

thank you for this idea, as i will now shamelessly steal it

No shame in stealing a recipe idea anyway.

Banana pudding --- Junior League style with Nilla wafers, whipped cream, the whole nine.

If it's good enough for fall parish picnics in Fayette County, TX then it's good enough for me.

Remember when doug was making pizza but roger spilled his banana pudding on it but the banana pudding pizza turned out to be a surprise hit?

Probably how CiCi's came up with so many successful slices on the buffet.

wtf is this

[washing machine]

Hypothetical: Say you've been waiting in line for thirty minutes after driving a few (not too many) miles out of your comfort zone. You've still got twenty or so people ahead of you when the staff announces that the brisket is gone and there's a count on ribs and sausage. Plenty of turkey left, though.

Do you:

Leave?
Stay?
Wait and see what the people in front of you are going for?

This hypothetical assumes there are more food options within walking distance.

leave

leave

I think I'd leave after watching, waiting, and seeing the sausage count go down. It's a given that the ribs are a crapshoot at that point, but I could handle waiting if I knew here would still be sausage.

had some bbq in dallas today. it was okay.

Where in Dallas?

Typically, the hole-in-the-walls there have way better flavor than the chain bbq shacks.

This should really be the only response... Unless you're at a Dickey's.
