went to biloxi ms for 11 days. here's the low down on the places i ate
at...

corky's in biloxi---
don't yell at me!!! i was up since 4 am with no breakfast and only a
cracker on the airplane. by the time i got to biloxi and got my room,
it was 2 pm with no food in me. had to go somewhere quick and safe.
my first time eating "memphis style" ribs. different, but it grew on
me. beans were nothing special, the baked apples were missing
something. peacan pie was pretty good (2 scoops of ice cream and carmel
drizzled over it all). BUT 6 BUCKS FOR PIE??? almost half the price
of the meal (13 bucks) went to pie. RATING: 7 1/2
i went a second time (see below) the night before coming home. first
time trying rib-tips in a restaurant. what a freaking waste of money.
but the potato salad and mac and cheese were great!!! RATING: 6

montana's in gulport---
one word...buffet. all the sides in the buffet were the best things
about this place. there was a seperate area where a lady was carving
brisket. she also had several racks of ribs on a cutting board she was
slicing up and putting in a warming tray. there was also chicken and
kilbasa-type sausage. none of the meats tasted smoked or bbq'ed. save
your gas. RATING:5

bingo's bbq shack in biloxi---
drive through take out. there were some tables and seats outside, but
at 45 degrees, that wasn't going to happen. got half rack with sauce
on the side and beans. it was torture driving to the room with the
smell!!! the ribs were a bit greasy. they were the texture of thick
pork chops. what type of cooking technique does this indicate? the
meat didn't have "grain" to it. the beans were very good. lots of
pieces of brisket in the mix. RATING:6

the shed in ocean springs---
supposed to be a semi-famous place down there. literally a shed thats
been added on to over the years. i ate in a room framed with
corrigated sheet metal. got the half rack with beans and slaw. both
sides were ok. i forgot to ask for the ribs "dry", so they came
sauced-up. my bad. i've never had ribs fall apart that easily in my
life. i know that's not necessarily a sign of good q'ing, but that's
the way they were. the bones had the biggest curve i've ever seen
also. there was alot of "grain" to the meat. they closest to
home-made ribs of the locations i went to. if i ever get down there
again, i've got to order the ribs with sauce on the sides. the rating
would probably been higher. i could tell there was good tase somewhere
down there under the sauce. RATING: 7.5

davis bbq in gulfport---
went with a friend of mine. in a questionable part of town. when we
found the place, it was a drive-up, take out only. my friend wasn't
comfortable with the surroundings/neighborhood, so we left. he wanted
to go to corky's instead. if i was by myself, i probably would have
ordered. he was driving though. it looks like it was all for the best
cause i realized all i had was plastic with me and that place was
definately a cash-only operation.
