Description
Perhaps they were only sold in the test market I was living in at the time (Pittsfield, MA), but back around 1975-76, Kentucky Fried Chicken sold beef ribs. They were huge, meaty, fatty hunks of beef with a barbeque sauce that has stayed in my taste memory for 30 years and counting. Required lots of wet-naps. They served the meals like their chicken: in white and red boxes with styrofoam cups of peppery mashed potatoes and gravy and cole slaw. And don't forget the spork! My mouth still waters when I think of those ribs.

I remember KFC's ribs! They opened a couple of stores in Wichita Kansas (and maybe other places, who knows?) called Kentucky Beef. Yeah, good sauce, and really messy.
I LOVED the BBQ chicken you use to be able to get at Kentucky Fried Chicken in the 70's and 80's... What happened to the sauce? Why don't they use it anymore? The BBQ sauce they use on their wings now is not the same.
as far as I know they still make them in Fairbanks Alaska at the kentucky fried chicken there.The best ribs I have ever eaten!!!!
I remember them from the 80's in Bath, england. I'm still trying to recreate them. Sweet and sticky - fantastic.......!!
