Burgers vs. Ribs: Which Gets Your Vote (and Bite) at the Barbecue?

Just in time for Monday's Memorial Day holiday, the cast of The Kitchen came together to throw the ultimate backyard barbecue on this morning's all-new episode. Complete with a boozy Long Island iced tea, the co-hosts' menu boasted classic and creative picks alike, but at the forefront of their cookout were their recipes for two meaty favorites: a juicy burger and saucy ribs. While both are traditional barbecue selects, Katie Lee's burger and Jeff Mauro's spare ribs featured next-level elements — a buttermilk-herb dressing for the burgers and a Chinese-inspired glaze for the ribs — that transformed the meats into impressive presentations with satisfying results.

FN Dish wants to know, as you consider your ultimate cookbook plate, both at your Memorial Day gathering and at summer soirees all season long, which of these tried-and-true selects is your favorite? Are you a fan of the beefy goodness that only a cheese-covered patty, piled high with toppings galore, can offer, or do you prefer the tender succulence of hearty ribs? Cast your vote in the poll below to share your preference.

Tune in to an all-new episode of The Kitchen on Saturday at 11a|10c.
