What makes the food so good at Famous Dave’s? When it comes to ribs, it’s a combination of using exceptional quality meats, hand rubbing each one with a custom blend of spices, cooking them for hours over a live wood smoker, tossing them on the grill to caramelize and lock in the flavors, and drenching them in one of the restaurant’s many down-home sauces. Paired with one of this restaurant’s many country side-dishes, you’ve got yourself an absolutely unforgettable barbecue experience.

This commitment to crafting the most delicious food possible has not gone unnoticed; in fact, Dave Anderson, Famous Dave’s pitmaster, has won over 700 awards for his creations.
