Should ribs fall off the bone or have a little tug?
Thatās one of the biggest debates in BBQā and honestly, thereās no wrong answer.
At Slapās, we look at it as a tenderness game. In competition, you want control and structure. In a restaurant, you want consistency, bite, and that perfect pull when it hits your mouth.
At the end of the day, it comes down to one thing, great BBQ is great BBQ. However you like your ribs, thatās the right way.

š Iām the kind of guy whoāll try anything onceā¦
Weirdest thing Iāve ever eaten? Wombat stew at a BBQ contest with some friends from Australia. Yep⦠wombat. It wasnāt bad ā just not for me. š
Weirdest thing at a restaurant? Shark steak. It was good⦠a little gristly⦠definitely not like steak.
Safe to say, Iāve tried some interesting things and lived to tell the story.

š Sauce or no sauce?
I get asked this all the time. Hereās my honest answer: Do what you want. Iām not the judge. š
I grew up loving tangy BBQ sauce with a little heat. In competition, we leaned into thicker, sweeter, molasses-style sauces. I love them both.
That said, I donāt think a restaurant should serve meat already sauced. Let the smoke and the meat speak first. But you should always have a variety of sauces on the table so you can make it your own.
Your plate. Your rules.
Me? Iām probably adding some sauce. š„
Come try it your way.

Which taco would you choose? š®
Iām tasting both of our Taco Tuesday favorites ā the burnt ends deep-fried taco for that crispy, smoky bite, and the pulled pork taco for something tender, juicy, and full of flavor.
Crispy or tender, thereās no wrong answer here. Come by Slapās, grab a taco (or two), and tell me which oneās your favorite.
