Rock 'n' roll ribs is owned by iron maiden drummer, Nicko McBrain. Not only is he a talented drummer, but he does pretty well with barbecue too! Their motto at the restaurant is "where BBQ meets metal". Pretty darn accurate as the restaurant is decorated with all of the accolades that Nicko and Iron Maiden have received over the years. It's great to walk around and check out the gold records and merchandise all over the walls. They have a mini stage with a drum kit on it and a TV above that plays a constant loop of Iron Maiden concerts, which is really cool. If you're lucky, you may see Nico hanging out at the restaurant one night. Aside from the coolness of the restaurant the barbecue is darn good too! I love that the menu items are all named after rock 'n' roll, or concert related terms. Our favorite to get is called the appetite of the beast. It's a huge amount of food so be prepared to have a couple people go in with you on this one. For $68 you get one and a half racks of ribs, barbecued chicken, pulled pork and pulled beef with four pieces of garlic, toast and corn, as well as coleslaw and french fries. The amount of food is mind-boggling and you can't beat it for the price. If you're not that hungry or if you don't have friends to share of course you can get single servings of their BBQ dishes. I happen to think the ribs are the best thing on the menu though, the other stuff is pretty good too. Rock 'n' roll ribs has been open for quite a few years now and it's still always seems to be busy every time I visit. For good barbecue and a fun atmosphere you need to check it out. Especially if you're an Iron Maiden fan!
