I think it would be great to have some sort of competition to find out who makes the best ribs. I'm not talking about Slo's or any of the restaurants - I want real, down-to-earth Detroiters cooking ribs from an old oil barrel the same way they've done it for years.
These type of people are not allowedi in cities like chicago - unless they have a license. So Detroit should do the same, license them! I wouldn't buy ribs or any food from someone who was on the corner. I would buy from a food truck, and maybe that's what the city should aim for.
