Come on Hector, it was "Ribs at Burger King". It's almost an oxymoron. I remember when they tried to offer 2 tacos for a buck years back. From that very painful lesson I swore, nothing but Whoppers from the KingLeave a comment:

I'm glad you posted this. I was gonna go get them but I was kinda weary about them. I wasn't sure.

Today I tried the new Burger King BBQ ribs...
My verdict?
Save your money...it's a scam, folks...
It costs $7.99 (almost $10 with tax) for a BBQ meal...you get six tiny ribs that are about two inches long, small fries, and a small drink....you get BBQ sauce on the side (little pack).
The entire bag weighs about an ounce...you won't even remotely get satisfied, much less full...and we are talking close to ten bucks here, guys.
I could get a pound of ribs from a real authentic BBQ place for the same price!
On the taste...they are actually not horrible, they are not charcoal or firewood cooked of course...they are flame broiled...but they are not awful tasting (but not even remotely close to the authentic stuff either though)...it is real pork ribs with bone and everything...but they are almost meatless...you'll get much more substance from a Chicken McNugget, I kid you not.
But six two inch pieces for almost ten buck for a meal order?
What Burger King does it take on a regular normal actual rib...and divide it into a dozen pieces...and one piece makes a Burger King BBQ rib...so in reality...you are paying $7.99 for a smallish real sized rib...unbelievable.
This product won't last unless they drop the price considerably...I wouldn't pay more than a dollar for six of their ribs...as a matter of fact...they should be a Dollar Menu Meal offering...one buck for six miniature measly mini ribs.
Next time...I'm slapping myself...and go directly to Flint's BBQ ribs in West Oakland.
