Menu Showdown: Hand-Breaded Pork Tenderloin vs. Burnt Ends on a Bun

It's time once again for another showdown between two of the best items on the menu at our BBQ restaurant in Des Moines: the Hand-Breaded Pork Tenderloin versus our hickory-smoked Burnt Ends on a Bun. If you've dined more than once at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Clive, then there's a good chance you've tried both of these incredible sandwiches. If you haven't had them yet, it's time to get over here and figure out which one is your favorite!

Hand-Breaded Pork Tenderloin

The pork tenderloin is an Iowa tradition, and no restaurant in this state should be without an amazing version of one on their menu. Your Wobbly Boots Roadhouse kitchen has come up with one that will impress even the pickiest tenderloin aficionado. 

We start out with a more-than-generous portion of meat. This is one gigantic sandwich! The next step is is to hand-dip it in buttermilk, then bread it in our expertly seasoned flour and fry it to a beautiful golden brown. It takes a big appetite to tackle this gargantuan sandwich! Think you're up to the task? It tastes so good, it's hard to stop eating once you stop.  

Burnt Ends on a Bun

Our claims to fame are mouth-watering hickory-smoked meats and our house made BBQ sauce. You get a taste of both of these when you order our tender, juicy Burnt Ends. These savory beef chunks are carved right from the brisket point. Every order is seasoned, seared, and extra-smoked to the perfect captivating flavor. 

We pile those burnt ends high onto a fresh Kaiser roll, then smother them in our very own secret-recipe BBQ sauce. This is yet another unforgettable sandwich that will make sure you don't go home hungry.

Menu Showdown: Ribs vs. Wings

Just as a parent doesn't have a favorite child, we love each of our savory Des Moines BBQ restaurant dishes equally. Incredible amounts of love, care, and nurturing go into every Wobbly Boots Roadhouse menu item, so you couldn't possibly ask us to choose one over the other. 

You, on the other hand, CAN have a favorite! As an impartial judge, we would love to know how you feel about a couple of our most popular BBQ creations. Today we are pitting our jumbo, juicy chicken wings against our tender, meaty ribs. See if you can decide who is the tastiest.

Baby Back Ribs

When the word "BBQ" is uttered, who doesn't picture a big ol' rack of ribs? Here at the Boot, we know how to cook them up to be the most tender, most juicy, most mouth-watering ribs you've ever put in your mouth. 

For our classic BBQ dinner featuring this incredible creation, we start with a 2-pound slab of meaty ribs. Our chef then coats them with our specially formulated dry rub before slow-smoking them over hickory.

Once they are perfectly smoked, we lightly grill them and baste them with our own homemade secret recipe sauce. You'll need a lot of napkins handy when you dig into a plate of these ribs filled with tender, delectable, fall-off-the-bone goodness. 

Wobbly Wings

At the top of our appetizers section of the menu, you will see our award-winning Wobbly Wings prominently featured. These jumbo, bone-in chicken wings get a similar treatment our those tasty ribs, but come out with a flavor that's all their own. 

The first step is to coat each wing in that special dry rub of ours. They are then slow-roasted in our hickory pit. Once they come out of the smoker, the juicy, taste-tempting flavor that they posses without sauce is unbelievable on its own. 

To up the flavor ante even more, we have 4 of the best wing sauces ever made to coat them in. 

• BBQ - Our house recipe sauce. A great addition to anything!
• Original - A sauce like no other. Try it, you'll be hooked. 
• Chipotle Buffalo - Our version of traditional buffalo.
• Teriyaki - Sweet meets heat. Delicious!  

Having trouble deciding? 

We don't blame you one bit. Simply describing these amazing menu items has us drooling already. Once you come in to Wobbly Boots Roadhouse and get a whiff of that hickory-smoked aroma, it will be ever tougher to decide! 

If it's truly too hard for you to pick between these two, we've got you covered. There is a Ribbies & Wings plate made especially for this reason. Two of our best dishes on one plate: 4 ribs and 5 wings. The only problem with ordering this sampler plate is that it will probably leave you craving more! No worries, we've got enough coming out of the smoker daily to feed even the biggest appetites. 

No matter which Wobbly Boots Roadhouse menu item that you decide to order, we know you will leave satisfied, full, and with a big smile on your face. Don't put too much thought into your order, because it's all fantastic. You'll just have to come back to the best BBQ restaurant near Des Moines often and try something new each visit.
