Review & FAQ:

Central BBQ Memphis has taken the top honors on numerous occasions for serving unrivaled grilled and smoked meat. Premium meats, including beef, pork, chicken, and turkey, as well as beef brisket, ribs, sausage, and bologna, are rubbed with a mixture of herbs and spices, marinated for 24 hours, and then smoked for hours to produce barbecue like no other.

Don’t miss the BBQ Nachos and smoked hot wings, which are favorites on the menu, and the desserts, which are nothing less than sublime. The restaurant has three locations: 2249 Central Ave., 4375 Summer Ave. And 147 E. Butler Ave.
