Twice voted 'Best Ribs in America', Rudolphs Bar-B-Que in Minneapolis is the Twin Cities alternative to a barbecue joint. In 1975, founder Jimmy Theros began concocting his sauces and pleasing palates, all with a touch of class. His son Charlie has since taken over, and Rudolphs is a thriving Uptown hot spot. Rudolphs ribs are aged for 48 hours and cooked in a custom-made pit, and their coleslaw is legendary. Not in the mood for ribs? New York Steak, a one pound pork chop, Prime Rib on the weekends, and hamburgers and sandwiches round out the menu.
