    The Memphis barbecue-and-burger chain, in business since 1952, with an early start: breakfast until 10:30am. Sun–Wed 6:30am–10pm, Thu–Sat to 11pm, and the last hour is drive-thru only.

    The $5.99 sleeper. The barbecue drive-in that's been at it since 1952 grills a quarter-pound TOPS Original Cheeseburger ($5.99 single, $7.99 double) that beats most sit-down versions — and The Fireman ($7.99) piles smoked pork shoulder and hot BBQ sauce on top, the most Memphis burger on this page. (Their pork sandwich is on our BBQ list too.)

    Great at one thing — get the pork-shoulder sandwich. The Memphis drive-in chain since 1952 does a chopped-shoulder sandwich with slaw and mild sauce that beats most sit-down joints, and with 19 locations across the Mid-South there's a Tops near wherever you are. That's the order; keep it simple. (Their cheeseburger has a cult of its own — it made our best burgers list.)
