My kids have gone to barbecue competitions since they were barely able to
talk. We live in New England, not exactly known as a mecca of good Q.

Once, when my older son was about 10, we went to Chilis. He wanted the
Baby Back Ribs. I tries to tell him that they were unlikely to be what
he thought of as "BBQ ribs", but he really wanted them, and he ordered
them anyways.

When they came, he tried them, and then he wouldn't eat them. We sent
them back and got him a burger.
