NORTH CENTER — With summer winding down, why not go back to the beginning and revisit Ribfest?

North Center's annual pork fest gets the star treatment from the Food Network's "Eating America With Anthony Anderson," featured in an episode that airs at 9:30 p.m. Friday and again at 12:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. on Saturday.

Relive the gluttony of RibMania, watch Anderson challenge a festgoer to balloon darts and pretend it's June again.

In "Eating America," Anderson chows his way across the country, one festival at a time. The actor is a former judge and competitor on "Iron Chef America."

He's currently producing and starring in the upcoming "Black-ish," set to debut this fall on ABC.
