Rib City - Cookeville

Jordan Peacock

Great BBQ place with a fun and warm atmosphere, good food, friendly and fast service, close to the exit off I-40 going by Cookeville. I'm partial to pulled pork or brisket if I am going to a BBQ place, but I tried the burger, and it's amazing! They capture that "back yard barbecue" smoky char-grilled flavor in the best way. The fried okra is just the right level of crisp without being greasy. The pulled pork is pretty good, too, and I just can't get enough of those cobettes. There's also a tempting selection of desserts.

We went back to Rib City yesterday for lunch. The riblets were great! Their sweet tea is good also.

Wow, fantastic food and service. I'm from Texas and loved the brisket here. Sides were great. Homemade desserts were very, very, very, did I say very good.

Pretty good place to eat. Stopped on the way home from Pigion Forge. The server Paige was amazing. Checked on us often but not to much. Drinks filled often. Food was good. I had the turkey plate. I was not a big fan of the mac and cheese. It was not bad by any means, just not my flavor. My husband had a pick 3 platter. He had the beef, ribs and pulled pork. He was satisfied with his plate.
