🔥 Our Smokin' Story

🔥 Our Smokin' Story
Back in 1983, Andrew and Rose Pollard took the plunge into the sizzling world of BBQ. It all started with a fast food take-out joint that has now evolved into the heart and soul of Memphis dining. We're not just a restaurant; we're a family legacy, locally run and operated with love.

Had the rib plate and bologna sandwich, both really good choices! Close to Graceland, if you're visiting the area.

Excellent! The beans were so good. Got the Lemon Meringue pie- not tart or lemon flavor enough for me.

My wife and I went here with my daughter's family in maybe 2019. So why am I reviewing it now? Well, my daughter is visiting us now in Scottsdale, AZ, and she noticed a new BBQ place opening here. We got to talking about great BBQ. A&R is our pick. Everything I ate -- including and especially the smoked turkey leg my granddaughter couldn't finish -- was fantastic. Loved it all.
