What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

The Best Thing I Ever Ate (Food Network) featured BBQ pork ribs from Ronnie's Ribs, Wings & Other Things in the show's 'Bar-B-Que' episode; the dish also has its own page on the show's companion site, bestthingieveratelocations.com. Ronnie's Ribs, Wings & Other Things is listed as a barbecue restaurant at 1718 E Main St in Richmond, Virginia, with a website at ronniesbbq.com, according to Food Network's restaurant directory, which also lists a phone number and describes mobile catering, event planning, and nationwide shipping of ready-to-prepare barbecue. A separate, similarly named restaurant, The Original Ronnie's BBQ, operates several miles away at 2097 New Market Rd in Henrico, Virginia, under the Logan family, according to a Yelp listing for that address; the two do not appear to be the same business. No dated 2026 source confirming the Richmond restaurant's current operating status was located within this record's search budget.
