Dreamland BBQ: There ain't nothing like it no where
Historic landmarks can be found all over the Birmingham area, but one landmark that actually didn’t start in Birmingham, but Tuscaloosa (an hour away from Birmingham) is Dreamland BBQ.
Dreamland started as a little shack off of University Blvd and Highway 59 in Tuscaloosa just minutes from the University of Alabama’s campus. Before long, the shack with great ribs turned into the local hang out especially when Coach Paul “Bear Bryant started getting his ribs from there.
Pretty soon local politicians and famous athletes turned Dreamland into a popular hang out spot. I think what makes the original Dreamland so popular is its simple menu of ribs, bread and Pepsi products. But like most businesses, once word got out about how good the food was, the owners decided to expand.
One of the restaurants is located in you guessed it; Birmingham. Nowadays, on the Dreamland menu you can get a little bit more then ribs and bread, now you have your choice of other menu items such as bbq chicken, potato salad, banana pudding, cole slaw and well you get the idea.
It’s nice to have all those other items to choose from, but trust me when I say the ribs and bread alone will fill the heartiest appetites. Dreamland has gotten so popular that you can even have them delivered to your home.
Whatever location you choose (there are PLENTY to choose from) you cannot go wrong. For more information go to www.dreamlandbbq.com.
