Coming from Carolina for 10 years and KC 8 years (and eating a lot of bbq) I can honestly say this is the 2nd best bbq place I've ever eaten, 2nd only to OK Joes, and had I tried other dishes it may have even surpassed this. My girlfriend and I ate a beef brisket sandwich and a pulled pork... More

This place has it going on. I went here with some friends and the Ropers are so nice. Mrs. Roper came out and talked to us about her family and her restaurant. It was like talking to an long lost relative. The food was really good. I had the beef ribs and it was finger licking good. If you are... More

Like most of the best kept secrets, this place looks like a real hole in the wall. Its got a very small dining area and a order counter, thats all. It seems like they do most of their business take out or catering. But dont let the understated approach scare you off cause youll miss some of the best ribs... More

Usually go to Pappy's, but they were out of food for the day. I had heard great things about Roper's so I got into my car and drove to Jenning's. No lines like in Pappy's but they only had "rib tips" left. Boy were they great (actually to die for). I wish Roper's were closer. I would become a regular.

The BBQ was just ok because of the wait. Be had an hour wait, so thankfully I had an errand to run to target. My husband want to eat right away so we went to Mi Hungary at page and 170 came back and our order number had just been called.

The BBQ Ribs atRopers were good but not blow you away amazing. With Pappy's and Bogarts now setting the standard in town these ribs did not quite live up to that standard. The seasoning was a little on the salty side but not unedible. The sauce lacks any distinct take away flavor. It would be better if the sauce was... More

Picked up my smoked Turkey just before Thanksgiving. OMG was it ever good. Not too salty like some I've ordered before. Just right! Heat and eat!

This is my second visit to Roper's Ribs with my girlfriends. I must say the barbecue is the best I have ever had. The guys there were the nicest. The young man spoke well about the beef brisket and ribs and he was right. And cute too. My girlfriends and I will be back for the brisket and next time... More

Ive been going to Ropers for years 1 of their long time customers...The food is excellent. However it is not to be confused with fast food. Call ahead & be prepared for a delite.
