  • The Best BBQ in Memphis

    The everyday, the underrated, and the outlierVerified October 11, 2026

    The Texas outlier — not better, just different. Bain smokes USDA Prime brisket low and slow over oak, Central-Texas style, in a city built on pork. Their tagline says it plainly: Memphis meets Texas. If you want to taste the contrast the styles section is talking about, this is the stop. Closed Mondays, and the good stuff sells out — check their live availability page.
