I wish I lived closer to St. Louis,because there is no way you can eat everything on Roper’s menu in one visit.They have an amazing array of goodies – including deep fried shrimp, snouts,ribs, rib tips, and brisket to name a few. Tate and I stared open mouthed for afew minutes while the two guys in front of us ordered. We finally settled on arack of St. Louis style ribs, a brisket sandwich and rib tips.
Back at the hotel, we popped openthe containers and started in. I love ribs. The St. Louis cut is my preferredstyle and these were truly excellent. They were cooked until done, but notoverdone and soft. The sauce was a nice balance of tomato, sweet, sour andspicy. The tips were the same way – If you like to gnaw around the cartilage ona big slab of ribs, then rib tips are for you.
Tips.....hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
