As far as Memphis BBQ, I like the Memphis BBQ company or the original Interstate BBQ

Hard 8 - TX BBQ at its best. *

Memphis BBqCO - Memphis at its best. *

Oklahoma Joes - KC at its best. *

* other places have certain aspects that are better, but massed produced representations are great indicators of quality.

Memphis BBQ Company is one of my favorites in the Memphis area, along with the BBQ Shop on Madison, and Central BBQ (although on some items, they can be a little inconsistent).

For a quick stop and a sandwich or plate, it is hard to top Tops BBQ (several locations). Their cole slaw is unreal, as are their cheeseburgers (I know, a little off topic). And their BBQ is up there.

I have also eaten at Oklahoma Joe's in the past couple of years, and plan to visit again this summer. Their name has changed to KC Joe's. Their brisket may be the best I ever ate, although, like others, I don't consider brisket to be real BBQ. The pigs you get brisket from just don't look right, for some reason.

Been up to Memphis quite a few times the past year for aoccer tournaments. Going to have to remember to hit you up for recommendations next time.

Obligatory posting of the BBQ Song.

Think of it this way- Texas BBQ = P5. Tennessee, Carolina, Arkansas, etc. BBQ = G5.

Oklahoma (KC) Joes is the BEST ribs I've ever had and I'm from Memphis. Had the flavor of Rendezvous but meatier. Thing about Memphis man ... There ain't no bad BBQ. You serve bad Q in that town ... Your closed in a week. I've had bad Q in KC ... Some chain looking place that we were takin too for dinner one night. Several locations in KC. Can't smell it ... Don't sell it !!

BBQ is not ribs. Nor is it brisket. Nor is it a verb.

End of lesson.

They are all BBQ.

actually BBQ is a type of cooking. that means it can be a verb and while I prefer pork any food can be barbecued.

Incorrect. Couldn't be more wrong if you tried.

Do you bbq? Because he IS correct.

Burn Co. conquers all.

They're expanding. I wouldn't be surprised if Burn Co is in multiple states 10 years from now.

I don't BBQ because it is not a verb.

It is a noun. More specifically, it is pulled pork.

Look, I live in GA unfortunately, and y'all don't know ANYTHING about BBQ down here. It is reallllllly sad.

Exactly.

I live in Georgia, own several pits and grills and also know that bbq come from the ancient Caribbean Taino word barbacoa which means slow cooked meat and in the case of the Taino it was FISH. I have bbqued pork, ribs, beef brisquet and last year even lamb for a Greek friend. People need to get over themselves.
