July 31, 2010: Kip's Texas BBQ (San Marcos, TX)

Amber and I split a pork-rib basket: 4 ribs, jalapeno cornbread, and slaw. I recommend the ribs. Nice dry rub. Quite meaty, not fatty - just a small layer on top that provided some good moisture. Amber didn't care for the slaw or cornbread, but I liked them. Definitely mix them. Atmosphere is nothing to speak of, since it's just a small place in a strip joint, but the young guy at the counter was very nice and helpful with the menu.

Amber's scores - Ribs: 8; Atmosphere: 6; Overall experience: 7.8

Drew's scores - Ribs: 8.5; Atmosphere: 6.25; Overall experience: 8

Overall Man-Up Score: 7.9
