What we’ve verified
Each note below comes from a different Hey Memphis guide, written when we checked this place at the source.
- The Best Restaurants in Memphis
The Cornish-hen-and-ribs cult since 1977 — matriarch Desiree Robinson was the first Black woman inducted into the American Royal BBQ Hall of Fame. Tue–Sat.
- The Best BBQ in Memphis
The one that surprises people. The smoked Cornish hen and the BBQ bologna sandwich are the moves, not the usual ribs — and pitmaster Desiree Robinson is the first Black woman inducted into the Barbecue Hall of Fame (2020). On North Parkway, Tue–Sat 11am–8pm. (They take a short break most Julys; open Tue–Sat as of October 2026.)
