Love the food here, and learn something new everytime. For example; I love ribs and salad! As I await my order, I learned that I could also order the DELICIOUS Caesar salad from Carmine's.
Depending on how many slabs I purchase - don't ask; to embarrassed to tell 😂 - I separate, freeze, then bag. I can reheat the frozen ribs in a pan filled with their BBQ sauce, and cover with a lid.
Reheating this way, the BBQ sauce becomes a little more tangy, lucious, slightly different, flavor which I prefer. Also, as tender as the meat already is, it becomes even more tender. OH! MY! GOSH!
I also bag my salad and take out so much for my dinner serving, then add the dressing, and... uh oh; my mouth is watering, and I just finished breakfast 😂.
The day I picked up my order, talked to a friend, and had her also make an order. Originally, she was going to order one slab, but after describing how I take care of my ribs, she ordered two slabs.
After two days, she laughed, stating she didn't think the second slab would last long enough to make it to the freezer.
Been eating at Virgil's/Carmine's for 24 years now.
I've introduced Virgil's/Carmine's to about 89 people - at last count. That includes ordering five slabs to take to dinner parties. Anything I've been displeased with, management has taken care of.
Please tip the workers well! It's hard work, long hours, and I know their feet and legs hurt which lends to bad knees, vericose veins, and the like. Please take care of them, as they take care of you.
