Mike's Memphis BBQ-Closed
Mike's Memphis BBQ

The first time I went here, I ordered the rib tips. Big mistake. Tips were burnt, no flavor, little meat. I went today, Sept. 27th and ordered the pork ribs lunch with mac salad for $8.18.
The ribs were OK. Though they lacked some smoke flavor. The ribs were fairly tender but they seem to lack any rub. The BBQ sauce was great. Just a little spicy but very nice flavor. Maybe the best BBQ sauce around. The mac salad was very creamy and fresh. I really enjoyed the BBQ sauce and mac salad. Now they just need to work on making better BBQ.
If I were in the area, I would go back. But I wouldn't make a special trip.
