    I live in Schaumburg and have been going there for the last 13 years. It is absolutely the best. I always get the ribs (center cut). I can't wait to go back !

    When I used to live in the Chi we used to walk to Lem's (We didn't care what the name was at the time so I just found out via this video) It was the very best BBQ Rib Tips in the Whole city! There is nothing like walking up to that Thick plexiglass ordering and watching them Chop the Tips up. Back then they had like a lil Mop head they used to slap that Mild Sauce on! One of my Very Fav Childhood and Teenage memories!! Can't wait to Hit my South Side and Pig Out!!

      I went to the same location on 59th and State Street in the 60s and 70s. My grandmother would bring home rib tips after work on Fridays. I am no longer living in Chicago but I hope to visit again because I miss those Lem's rib tps!!

    Eating Lems as I'm typing this. Mannnnnnn these rib tips are BOMB. the place is so clean and staff is very friendly. Got a large bucket. Going back tomorrow before I fly home to Atlanta. My husband's family is known for barbecue (Veasley Family) and he is sitting here killing these tips. I told him we gotta let his family know they have some competition 🤣🤣🤣
