Fortunately for me (and hopfeully you too someday) I am senior enough to never set foot in MEM except for recurrent training and an occasional Jumpseat home.
Now are you going to turn this into "Memphis is a hole" thread........
We're talking BBQ in Memphis and yes I still believe it is the best and yes I have been outside of Memphis. I try to eat BBQ everywhere I go because I enjoy it so much. I will try out your joint in MO if I ever get the oportunity but so far KC BBQ hasnt come close to Memphis Q.........
