Saturday11:00 AM ā€“ 2:00 AM
Sunday 11:00 AM ā€“ 12:00 AM

Murrayā€™s is known for its traditional Cajun dishes, but their ribs deserve special recognition. Marinated in a dry rub and smoked over six hours before grilling, these plump pieces of meat are charred to perfection with the perfect hint of smoky flavor complemented by a sweet-tangy sauce that doesnā€™t overpower the taste. To top it off, heartier eaters will love their generous serving sizes!

Key Differentiators:

  • Well-seasoned spare ribs
  • Juicy meat
  • With sweet and tangy sauce

Customerā€™s Review:

The food was great, especially the ribs and the pork belly. They had free food for kids (we got the fish and chips, which was literally a piece of fish and a bunch of dries) due to cross-ordering. Rice was also generously served (but I wouldā€™ve preferred mashed potatoes), and their staff was friendly!

Enjoy the delectable flavor of Southern cooking with these best-selling ribs. Each rack is meticulously slow-cooked in a smoker to ensure that each bite has an unforgettable smoky essence and tenderness. And to add one more delicious layer, they are then brushed twice with their mouth-watering barbecue sauce for maximum satisfaction! Once you take your first forkful, the succulent meat will effortlessly fall away from its bone ā€“ so donā€™t forget utensils!

Key Differentiators:

  • Southern-style American cooking
  • Basted with barbeque sauce
  • Tender and juicy meat

Customerā€™s Review:

Thereā€™s something about Roadhouse that screams comfort food and nostalgia. Theyā€™re well known for their ribs, steaks, and bar selection but we arenā€™t heavy meat eaters and we donā€™t drink.
