3 reviews for Willie Mae's Rib Haus
Barbecue in Dallas is such a different thing from Memphis style barbecue. We focus on brisket with a thick sweet sauce, they focus on tender, melt in your mouth, connective tissue dissolved pork shoulder in a light, tangy sauce. On a toasted bun.
Willie Mae's does all that perfectly. I could drive to West Memphis, Arkansas and never even venture into overpriced Memphis, TN and go home completely satiated with the most delicious sandwich I've ever had. They also have amazing sides and very good pies. Best of all, the gentlemen that work there are accomodating and very friendly, albeit a tad puzzled when I tell them I've driven 7 hours just for their sandwich.
Unfortunately regular business hours aren't on the menu here. Went out of our way for a closed sign at 6 pm on a Thursday. Wound up at a mediocre Krystal instead :(
Great family restaurant. Excellent BBQ - rib sandwiches were exceptional. And the tea - it's the REAL THING - deep, dark tea sweatened to perfection. And don't forget the buttermilk pecan pie.
