I started a topic a good while back named "PIZZA'S".
It got a lot of great responses...So now it is ribs.
My favorite was Hickory on Brown St. This was back in the 60's and 70's. Haven't been there since.

maxed out: +1 on the cream soda. Barq's was part of our liquid diet for sure.
As far as ribs go, I'm a child of the 70's so the only ribs I can recall were Jed's on Rte 725 east of the Dayton Mall. 1st ribs I ever had.

Old Hickory on Woodman. Used to drive from Springfield. Ordered one year on Mothers Day and said 2 hour wait. They need to build one here in The Villages FL. Parkmoor too.

Ribs? Restaurants, schmesteraunts. My mom, being half-German (maternal grandma Edith Mungel) made spare ribs and sauerkraut to die for.
Cooked slowly with onions in a Dutch oven, served atop a heap of buttery mashed potatoes --- DELISH!
The perfect German-Irish dish, IMHO. And (more to the point of this blog) a great example of the melding of cultures in the Midwest in general and Dayton in particular.
There are three midwestern cities which claim the title of "Crossroads of America": Indianapolis (where I was born) Vandalia, and Dayton (to include Huber Heights, which has been using the "crossroads" angle lately in their PR stuff). When I was a kid, Vandalia actually officially called itself "The Crossroads of America".
I bet you these "Old Hickory" places identify their 'cue as "North Carolina" "Texas" "Memphis" or "Kansas City" style places. From the descriptions of Old Hickory 'cue I have read here, I would wager that if pressed the owners would describe their style as "North Carolina style". (Then there's the separate argument of what part of North Carolina). Barbecue ribs is a contentious subject.
Cassanos has its unique quirks. It's Italian cuisine, Dayton style. What do these rib joints do to make them uniquely Dayton?

The BBQ ribs from Old Hickory on 3rd Street. I remember in the 1970's waiting outside in a line and standing next to the window showing the chicken roasting. I thought they would be there forever and when I got old my spouse and I would go there for a drink & ribs. LoL
