ReviewsBest Ribs on the Planet I'm currently in the military and I have traveled all over the USA trying many BBQ places. One thing is for certain.... I have never had ANY ribs as good as Hickory Log serves. I'm currently in the military and I have traveled all over the USA trying many BBQ places. One thing is for certain.... I have never had ANY ribs as good as Hickory Log serves. They breed their own pigs to have longer ribs with nearly no fat and a lot more meat. Then they slowly smoke the ribs over Hickory while adding their special blend of spices. They also have their very own tasty rib sauce to complement any meat served. With or without the sauce they are simply awesome. The restaurant is very nice and very clean place, down home enough for everyone to feel comfortable in. Yet at the same time just classy enough to make a lasting impression on your client or date. During Christmas the place changes with old English decorations looking quite beautiful! If your visting or just passing through this is one place you shouldn't miss Food Rating [10/10] Service Rating [8/10] Ambiance Rating [8/10] OH HOW I MISS THOSE RIBS! I lived in Dexter for a short 4 months as a missionary. Just thinking about the ribs at the Hickory Log make my mouth water! They are bar none the best ribs I've ever tasted. If I ever get rich I'll fly to Dexter from the rockies each week to gorge myself on ribs! The last time I had them was in 1986 and I still remember how they tasted!

I have traveled extensively through the US and Canada, tried numerous types of ribs, and I have NEVER found any to match those made at Hickory Log. I now live in Nashville, but each and every time I am able to visit home, this place is ALWAYS part of my agenda. I have even purchased thier BBQ sauce, but cannot match thier talent. I have even thought of having them UPS Overnight some to me just to prove to everyone here who the real champs are when it comes to BBQ ribs! Thanks Hickory Log for your little slice of heaven on earth! I grew up in PB, MO. not far from this place.

At that I agree that they were the best ribs I had ever had. On October 11, while passing through Dexter again, we stopped in and got a slab of ribs to take to my Son's house 30 minutes away. I'm sorry to say these were the worst ribs I have ever had. There was almost no meat on the bones and what there was was very tough. Sorry to see this happen since they used to be so good.

Hickory Log not only has the best tasting ribs in the world, it's the entire atmosphere that also makes that restaurant such a great place. Just as senses such as sight and smell can enhance the taste of a particular food, the atmosphere of the home-town, small-town restaurant of Hickory Log enhances the taste of these already delicious ribs! I'm not from Dexter or even the Dexter area for that matter, but I always feel at home at Hickory Log.
