Is any of the Ramones' stuff outside of the most well-known 70s albums worth checking out?

lol no
Yes. Everything after the first 3 is uneven, but they had some great songs throughout their career. My favorite song ever is Bonzo Goes to Bitburg. End of the Century is them doing a big classic pop album, while Too Tough to Die is literally made to cater to 80s hardcore. My recommendation is to go through everything, listen for the great tracks, and don't get bogged down by the throwaways.
End Of The Century, Pleasant Dreams and especially Too Tough To Die are essential.
Animal Boy, Subterranean Jungle, Brain Drain and Mondo Bizarro have their moments.
The rest of their post-70s albums always have at least a couple of genuinely fantastic songs, but are generally quite uneven and messy.
My favorite Ramones song is actually one that they did all the way in the 90s though.

>My favorite Ramones song is actually one that they did all the way in the 90s though.
always thought it was a shame they didn't make more of those sorts of introverted, gloomy songs desu. the most interesting moments in the later day ramones discography were those songs where they would let the desperation and cynicism and disillusionment out into the open.

I always liked Acid Eaters. It's like a covers album of 60s tunes, if you're morbidly curious. I like it, but its definitely a little novel.
