Smoky City BBQ
Jackson Avenue smoke running until 2am
Smoky City BBQ is a barbecue restaurant in Memphis, TN. Listed categories include barbecue, restaurant.
Smoky City BBQ is the late-night heavyweight of Jackson Avenue, smoking ribs, pulled pork, and wings from eleven in the morning until two the next, an unusual second shift for Memphis barbecue. Most of the city's pits go cold by dinner; Smoky City keeps its fire lit for the after-hours crowd.
The cooking earns the late hours rather than coasting on them. Dry-rub ribs come off with a firm bark, the pulled pork stays juicy chopped for the sandwiches, and the rib tips reward anyone who wants the fattier cut. BBQ nachos and hickory-smoked wings are the natural companions to a cold drink at midnight, and they disappear fast. It is a proper neighborhood smokehouse that happens to keep bar hours, which makes it something Memphis barbecue almost never offers: real smoke, served long past the point everyone else has closed.
