Two British dudes try ribs for the first time and their reactions are priceless. 😂

1. That is funny

It's as if they're from another planet.

[crud]

2. That settles it...

Those ribs in my freezer are going on the smoker this weekend.

[FirstLight]

3. LOL...the utensils!

I've seen them before trying different American foods. So Sad, that England has no cuisine!!!

[CanonRay]

15. Not true. I absolutely love Boozy Steak Pie

[question everything]

27. Whiny once invited Palin to eat pizza in NY with... knife and fork

Jon Stewart had a ball with that.

[brush]

33. Glad they got some real food. Have to say though that Brit fish and chips are quite goodl

[chiffondior]

4. This reminds me of an old John Cleese interview.

He was asked why British food was so bad compared to other countries in Europe. His response, "We had an empire to run!"

[ms liberty]

5. Those guys are really funny. I follow them on FB.

[3catwoman3]

6. This reminds me of the scene from Starman...

…when the character so endearingly portrayed by Jeff Bridges first tastes apple pie 🍎 🍏 🥧

[johnnyfins]

19. How great was JB in that film?

THAT is acting.

[3catwoman3]

20. This is one of my all time favorite movies...

...EVER!

[sarge43]

29. Double Dutch Apple Pie

JB's expression "I've just died and went to heaven."
Much underrated film.

7. I love this video. These guys are so fun. The looks on their faces is perfect

[kimbutgar]

8. Looks yummy now I want ribs to eat!

[SWBTATTReg]

17. In their own words, Gosh, really!!!

Got me hungry!!

[Trueblue1968]

9. The english dudes are soooooooooo cute!!!!!

[Grumpy Old Guy]

10. They should try my ribs.

I smoke them for three hours.

[Skittles]

11. I love how the server literally lifts the guy's hands

like....no other option, dude!

[Hermit-The-Prog]

14. Glad he stepped in. You gotta get your hands on good ribs.

[ProfessorGAC]

12. Priceless

Had a similar experience when taking a five engineers and chemists from Brazil, Singapore, China, the Philippines & Manchester England to a real Chicago pizza joint.
But, the reaction of these rib guys was even better.

[iscooterliberally]

13. Oh man. I could go for some of that right now.

I'm just getting over COVID and went for about 3 days without eating anything. When I do make ribs, my favorite recipe is called "Last Meal Ribs". It takes me half a day to make them though and I hate to cook. I usually only do it about once a year if that. If anyone wants to check out the recipe, here's a link:

31. Thanks for sharing. ... nt

[LudwigPastorius]

45. That is a superb web site for all things grilled.

Those guys know what they're doing.

[evolves]

16. I'm from Memphis

Can confirm.

[Zambero]

18. Might be a slight step up from bangers & mash

Those chaps don't seem to be complaining!

[catbyte]

21. These guys have a YouTube channel and their reactions are priceless.

They had British school boys try biscuits and gravy for the first time.

[Wonder Why]

24. That was even better than ribs on Twitter! Thank you.

[pansypoo53219]

25. if that sweet tea is that toxic sweet lipton crap i tried in texas.....worst tea ever.

[Boomerproud]

44. I've seen these on YouTube and the headmaster is really cool.

All the comments talk about how polite the boys are. Very cute vids.

[aggiesal]

22. The best food in the UK, is from another country. ...

It doesn't matter what you eat, if it's good, it didn't come from the UK.

[efhmc]

26. So very true. The only good food we had in London was French. We need something to eat before we left for France.

Ducked into a place next to the train and saw they had "baked" potatoes. Yum. Will hit the spot. It was obvious they were boiled not baked. We added whatever they had to make them palatable. What the heck, you can not even bake a potato. Was heavenly to get to France.

[Skittles]

35. nonsense

I shop regularly at the Brit store and I LOVE a lot of it.............yes I spent a good portion of my childhood in England, and I HATE BBQ!

[BaronChocula]

23. Oh come on now!

Brits know nothing about braising, or slow cooking? I don't believe it for a second.

[catbyte]

39. There are Brits reacting to these guys and they're all amazed at how tender we Yanks can

get our ribs, lol. I don't think they do ribs like us. I watched a Nigella Lawson cooking show and the ribs she cooked looked like they were nothing but bone. And what meat was n them looked really chewy.

[BaronChocula]

42. That amazes me

After all these years of being allies, what have they learned from us? 😂

[catbyte]

43. Not to put too fine of a point on it, but do these really look succculent?

I'll bet they tasted amazing with the marinade she used, but yikes, lol. Here's a screenshot from Lawson's "Forever Summer Red" episode:



We may be allies, but to hear Brits tell it, they suck at steak, burgers, and ribs. And what's with the beans on toast? I tried it and it must be an acquired taste. Or something. But they've got us beat at fish and chips, trifle, and Eton Mess.

[Nululu]

28. I had some wonderful food in Britain ...

... in an Indian restaurant. 😀

[dchill]

30. K&R.

[Tarheel_Dem]

32. That is so funny, and now I want ribs. nt

[UTUSN]

34. Meat/bones are to be *GNAWED* at?! - I did not KNOW (or DO) that!1

[oasis]

36. Yummy!!!

[GenThePerservering]

37. Man, you guys are real typical 'murican

food bigots. I live part of the time in England. Even the Marks and Spencer heat n' eats are better than a lot of restaurant dishes you get in the US.

[catbyte]

40. Have you had real Southern barbecue at restraunts like these guys went to? Go to Goldees or

Terry Black's in Texas and you'll think you've died and gone to heaven. Terry Black's rubs made a teenage girl from New Zealand cry. I think this was at Goldees, rated "The Best BBQ in Texas."

[betsuni]

41. There's nothing like it. It makes people cry. Slow food traditions.

[Elessar Zappa]

46. Americans are food bigots?

Have you never heard of the French or Italians?

[betsuni]

38. I didn't taste real southern bbq until my thirties and it was like nothing else. Magic.

A truly unique American food. I had the same reaction as these guys and ever since have been obsessed with it.

I'd just watched one of their episodes yesterday, when they were at George Motz's Hamburger America. Love their shows!
