The Man Who Got You Hooked On Chili’s Baby Back Ribs Has Never Had Chili’s Baby Back Ribs

The BroBible team disagrees on a lot of shit. Especially when it comes to food. We once spent an entire day arguing about whether Hooter’s is any good.

I tell people: I’ve never had a Chili’s baby back rib, so you don’t necessarily have to try the product to write the song, I guess.

You’ve never eaten baby back ribs?

I’ve had ribs before, and I guess I’ve had baby back ribs before. But I’ve never had them at Chili’s.
