Lincoln, Nebraska: Grandpa’s Ribs and Secret Sauce
Originally a side venture for Terry Rupert in the ’80s, the BBQ business has now flourished. Despite its humble beginnings, it rapidly grew, and Terry chose to name the place after his elderly friend and neighbor.

Regrettably, age has caught up with Terry, and these days he prefers to stay home. However, if you happen to encounter him at his establishment, there’s always a chance for an unexpected treat. If you’re fortunate, it might just be the restaurant’s standout offering: fresh and delectable briskets.
