El Porton is still here. Yummy! I hate the Rendesvous (blech). I only went because someone from out of town was a Tom Cruise (The Client) fan and said they had to go there. I don't like dry ribs. I prefer Corky's or Interstate BBQ.

I'd recommend The civil rights museum, Graceland, the Memphis Zoo (polar bears are so cool!), Gibson Guitar museum, Sun Studios, Tunica (ok...so that's in MS! LOL)

Above all...be careful. We have lots of killin' and shootin' and carjackin' and robbin'...

>>>I prefer Corky’s or Interstate BBQ.

OK, I’ve said my piece about Corky’s, and other folks here and in other forums (foodie forums mostly) have given Rendevous a bad rap, that leaves Interstate, which I was trying to remember last night. It’s outside the city but I’ve read good things about it, and founder/owner still works the floor from what I’ve heard. Some people swear by it (not sure if they mean the original place or one his newer spots around the city). Anyway I’d definitely give Interstate a try.

I convinced my company to sponsor a BBQ team for Memphis In May some years back, after I met them while judging the Georgia State BBQ Cookoff (”Big Pig Jig”). So I may be a bit pickier than others.
