D.C Groc. Bar.B.Q Ribs — Restaurant in Fort Pierce

Hidden diamond in the rough. I found this place because we were driving by and I saw a smoker out and the scent was tantalizing—enough so that we made a series of left turns to get back to it once we passed it. I also had a hard time finding it on Google because I was looking for "Coe's"—that's what the little sign by the smoker had on it.

This is a no-frills deal, but the goods—ribs—are good!

There were a couple of gents outside smiling and watching the world go by. The lady inside was super pleasant and when she asked me what kind of sauce I wanted and I wasn't sure, she let me try both and made a mix of the two. Yum! They are generous with the sauce. I passed on the bread slices and am not sure there were any other side options. Didn't recall seeing any groceries out to speak of.

Now I admit, I still prefer Hacienda Taqueria on Orange for my ribs because their ribs are leaner. But if you like a little fattier, moister rib, IMHO Coe's (aka D.C. Groc. Bar.B.Q Ribs) beats the pants of Dale's, Tillman's, and Carter's Grocery—the other places I've tried in Ft. Pierce so far.

Be forewarned, this is strictly to go and not the most sparkling clean place I've ordered food from, but for me, what matters is the food, the attitude and the price. Those are all stellar. If you're driving by and the smoker is out . ....

This is my place for ribs when I am in Fort Pierce. Great food and nice...

They have good and tender ribs also the best...
