Ted and Matula Gregory opened Montgomery Inn in 1951 as a gathering place for friends and family. Word of Matula’s incredible ribs and barbecue sauce quickly spread, and before long the restaurant was crowned The Ribs King. Since then, it’s expanded to four locations where U.S. presidents, locals and visiting celebrities alike have come to dine on the world-famous ribs and secret-recipe sauce. Today, it’s still family owned, and it’s still The Ribs King.
