Texas Daily Photo: The Original Dreamland Barbecue In Tuscaloosa Alabama

Sad sight to see. The original Dreamland Barbecue in Tuscaloosa hawking non-meat in a last ditch effort to maintain solvency. The once proud house of pork ribs, and pork ribs only is now in the potato and cabbage business.

I remember way back when, when Big John [RIP] once put a sign up announcing “we now have beans” with a little arrow pointing towards a bag of Lance candied Boston Beans.

The once mighty pork ribs are now little dry spindles with a mouthful of meat per bone. Sad sight to see.

Meanwhile in nearby Northport,  Archibald’s continues to put out the finest barbecue in the Deep South.
