What does it mean by "She likes it dirty." ?
The sentence "She likes it dirty" is from American TV "How I met your mother".

One day, Ted, the hero of the story, saw a beautiful lady in a bar and fell in love with her. When he tried to say to Barney, his friend, "See that girl? I'm gonna marry her someday" and actually say to him "Hey Barney, see that girl?", He said "Yeah, you know she likes it dirty."

Although I understand the sentence is a kind of joke, I can't understand the meaning and grammar. This is because I've never seen a sentence like "like" + "noun" + "adjective".

I'd appreciate it if you'd tell me the composition and meaning of the sentence.
