All-You-Can-Eat St. Louis Style Ribs

What makes St. Louis Style Ribs so darn good?

Many experts like the taste of the St. Louis cut of ribs better than baby back ribs and other cuts, because there is more meat between the bones, and it is better marbled. In preparation, the brisket bones are removed from the bottom of the rib rack. Slow cooking over low heat is the key to culinary success with a good, smokey grill.

You all know Bad Ass Coffee is a great place for coffee and drinks in Virginia Beach. But did you know they also have a really good menu for breakfast and lunch?  Bad Ass Coffee features a healthy menu which they call the "Healthy Body Series" Menu. This features Healthy Eats and Healthy Drinks with Sugar Free, Low-Carb Specialty Drinks like the super popular Kreme de Kona coffee.

Here is a sampling below of breakfast and healthy drink options at Bad Ass Coffee from their menu.  Time to start thinking about the beach bod and getting in shape.  This is a great way to start.  Not only will you be eating healthy but enjoying some delicious food.  I recommend the Body Patrol or Body Wrap!  Simple, healthy, full of protein and a great way to start off the day.

Whether to drink caffeinated or decaffeinated tea is a more complicated question than whether to drink regular or decaf coffee. All varieties of coffee contain some caffeine, but there are varieties of tea that naturally lack caffeine. In other words, any decaffeinated coffee you see has had the caffeine removed, but some decaffeinated teas never had caffeine in the first place. Sometimes the packaging will call these teas "naturally caffeine-free" as opposed to decaffeinated. I personally think that naturally caffeine-free teas are far preferable to artificially decaffeinated teas.
