What People Are Saying About Corky's Ribs & Bbq

In Short – A franchise of the famous Corky's in Memphis, this barn-style barbecue joint attempts to bring a little piece of Beale Street to Brentwood. The cool, dark interior doesn't sport a bar, but booths are usually filled with folks nursing beers and listening to piped-in blues. Families congregate at larger tables to enjoy dinners with all the trimmings. The menu offers barbecue in its many forms, from pulled pork to shrimp on a stick.

Good Food, not so good location

by Sally14

I agree with tochtli83 after the parking lot. I believe if the building was further back and the bushes at the front were removed getting out with probably be easier. They really need to make the exit more level. The food is good I always get the pork sandwich and barbeque corn its the best.

Good

by tochtli83

Good food. I've never eaten in, so I can't speak to service. But the drive-through is fine.

Pork is tender and tasty, and the sauce is really good: not otherworldly, but good.

Just a caution about the drive-through and the general location of the place. Trying to get out of the parking lot is quite challenging, especially if you drive stick. You have to drive up a hill that doesn't plateau before you can see the oncoming traffic: which is heavy most of the time. Be CAREFUL.

Best BBQ in town!!!

by jacksonboy

I absolutely love this place. I eat there several times a month and would do so more if it was closer. Best ribs in town and my wife loves the smoked turkey. Only place that I have seen that serves collard green and their unique style of potato salad. Place has great oldies music playing and the staff is very friendly. I always have a manager stop by and say hello when I'm there. Nice to go to a place where you always feel like a "local".

  • Pros: Only place that has dry rub ribs in town.
  • Cons: It takes me 30 mins to get there.

Don't get it to go

by scarlettshafer

Good barbeque, in general. But don't get it to go. I got a side of fried ocra. They packaged it in a plastic container sealed with a lid. Guess what I got when I got home...Mushy ocra in mushy crust. It was really disgusting. They've been around for years, so I'm really suprised that they haven't figured this problem out before. I called the store and spoke with the manager, Dale, and he said that he's never had a complaint about that before and they always package the ocra that way. Well, I'm guessing that no one else wanted to take the time to complain that their ocra was mush. But, I'm not in the business of throwing money away and when I order a side, I expect to get what I paid for.

Not impressed

by gdf1226

BBQ sandwich and fries for like $9, not worth the price. Terrible service, the place was not very busy and still had a bad waitress. Wouldn't go back.
