I thoroughly enjoyed both, but my prefernce is for the "wet" rather than dry rub. Still, I wouldn't turn down a big plate of ribs & greens.

I try not to judge barbecue on its regional style anyway. To me it gets too complicated trying to figure out if it's Texas, Memphis, Southern, or even Martian barbecue. Rather than choosing a particular denomination of the barbecue religion, I am a generalist, believing in all things barbecue. When doing a review, I simply rate it on its own merits. How is the flavor? Is it cooked right? Is it juicy or dry? And so on. Trying to figure out if it's genuine this or that only complicates things. This is some very delicious barbecue and it's well prepared. Memphis style or not, it's a winner in my book. On the other hand, I may have to come to Memphis and take some notes.
