No Teeth Required
I found the world’s best barbeque ribs at a place called Shankcat’s “No Teeth Required” in Frierson, Louisiana. I’m not being paid to say this. I swear, all you have to do is glance at the ribs and the good stuff just falls off of them. Pictured is the owner, Bobo Scott. I’m the one on the left without the antlers.

Sher - when we went to NSU, wasn’t the name of that great bbq place “Grayson’s” - in Clarence, LA. Think they charged extra if you had teeth!! Thus, we could stop at liquor store on other side of Grand Ecore bridge and then proceed to Clarence to get bbq; then stop at liquor store on way back from Clarence to Natchitoches (guess there is a theme here)!!
Also, seems like we used to go to the place in The Bottoms - Silver Moon - for fantastic bbq.

George, you must be mistaken. Sherri wasn’t allowed to go to the bottoms, much less a liquor store when she was in college. I’m telling mom.

When I was in college in Waco the waitress at George’s was missing teeth. When I went back for my ten year reunion she had some gold ones. Selling “Big O’s” of beer finally paid off for her.
Oh, and I do love me some ribs. What about the wet versus dry ribs thing?

I am not a ribs fan.

Oh. I live in Frierson and love love love that place!!

“all you have to do is glance at the ribs and the good stuff just falls off ”
So now you’re Mrs. Uri Geller?

I’ve heard great things about that place, just need to be able to drive in, er I mean drive PAST a liquor store to get there,just like Sherri did at Northwestern. What you doing driving around out in the country, gurl?

HRB - please don’t tell mom!!! Sher was at NSU a couple of years behind me, so she was unable to share our Grand Ecore “convenience store”/Clarence BBQ trips that we made. However, had she been there during my timeframe, we would have had room for her in the 68 Impala, although she might have had to hold onto the 8-track case!!
Sher, you would have certainly been impressed with the hot rod Impala - all jacked up in the back with the big wide rear tires and the Hooker (not to be confused with the two legged versions) headers!! The liquor store employees heard me coming before I crossed over the Grand Ecore bridge!!!

This topic is boring.

BBQ is never boring. My wife doesn’t like ribs either. I don’t get it, how can you not like ribs?

“how can you not like ribs?”
Maybe, CT, this reminds LindsAY of her days when she was a serial killer and owned a top notch torso pot that was stolen by a group of young trick or treaters and she never really fully recovered from that hideous event.

That explains it rt.

It wasn’t the torsos that I kept as a “souvenir”…don’t MAKE me show you…

HRB’s wife doesn’t like BBQ either. Last time they came to visit us in Alabama, HRB and I got a couple of slabs from Johnny Ray’s and our wives ate Chinese food. Next time we need to go to Dreamland in Tuscaloosa. They have the best BBQ in Alabama. They will even overnight them to you.

I will check out Shank Cat’s next time I come to Shreveport. I am always on the lookout for some good ribs.

Hey everyone. Ya know that portrait of Sherri that she uses to get the cat off of the roof with….well, I have THE picture of Sherri standing next to the portrait right after it was painted. The resemblance is uncanny. Because of the ’80’s hair, clothes, etc., Sherri is reluctant to post this picture on her site. She just needs some encourgment from you all to post it. Let her know that she is amoungst friends here and that there will be no sneering or jeering or giggling, but only oooh’s and aaaah’s at her timeless beauty.
