For most carnivores, it’s hard to resist the seductive and alluring scent of a burger. Those who frequent Bulimba’s bustling promenade of Oxford Street will be sorely tempted by the heady aromas emanating from Ribs & Burgers – a joint renowned for its almost irresistible morsels. Since arriving on James Street in 2014, the eatery has been a popular port of call for anyone seeking succulent eight-hour slow-cooked ribs and burgers lovingly constructed from family recipes. The secret to Ribs & Burgers’ success is all in the meat – the chain celebrates the rich history of butchers, instilling a passion and knowledge for meat across its preparation and cooking processes. All meats here are free-range, grass-fed, free of antibiotics and steroids – meaning it’s as good as you can get. The menu includes winners such as pork baby-back ribs, mouth-watering beef ribs, old-school cheeseburgers, crispy chicken burgers, wagyu and vintage cheese burgers, Greek-style lamb shoulder, peri chicken wraps, chicken wings, tenders, salads and a very impressive vegan-friendly Beyond burgers. Pair that with some decadent thickshakes and you’ve got a burger joint that’s hard to ignore.
