People in or know anything about Memphis

Please tell me about any barbecue places you would recommend. Or which to avoid?

Will be there in June and want to hit as many spots as possible.

THANK YOU!

1. Been there.

Lots of places but can't recall names. Watch yourself as there are a lot of sketchy people around. Left my girlfriend for a few minutes to get the car at the art fair a few years ago and she had "followers" when i got back. Broad daylight Sunday afternoon, on the riverfront.

3. Recs

Central bbq or the commissary in Germantown are two I've always frequented. Rendezvous is good for ambiance but I don't think the actual food is all that impressive. Also, try Gus' Fried Chicken.

I live a couple of hours away and haven't eaten at either in a couple of years. Could be a new place I'm unaware of......

4. Commissary in Germantown

There is also one in Collierville. Superb!

Bozo's is Mason is also very good.

Enjoy your trip & be safe! Crime here is rampant & potholes literally rip wheels off cars.
