I would go with Ott’s in Farragut or M&M on Middlebrook.
I tweeted him toward M&M.
Why on Earth in Knoxville, asks the Memphis native …
I have heard good things about M&M and keep meaning to try it.
@The Modern Gal: Same here about M&M.
I miss Neely’s BBQ in Memphis. Loved going there when my wife lived in Memphis.
Ditto to M+M’s, best BBQ ever. I would say FATS, but its kind of gone downhill.
Allow me to continue building the overwhelming wave of support for M&M. In addition to your everyday BBQ staples, you can find them bringing it with an outstanding fish fry most Saturdays from noon on. They are located at the corner of Middlebrook and Chert Pit, which is just east of Cedar Bluff Road.
I agree… try Otts. oh, and if you are grilling…. get a grill topper!

@Thomas: With a name like that they’ve got to be good.
I like M&M, Pops next to The Rush and Ted Russell, and TD’s on Middlebrook personally.
The Sunsphere is not a wig shop did a great piece on good bbq in town, but I’d have to say my personal fave is backroom in the ol’ city
I recently tried the new place in Karns – Bernie’s BBQ – the pork barbecue was wonderful. The ribs were even better. Prices were very fair for all the product that was served. The food was truely good. I really didn’t like M&M’s very well nor did my brother in law. Prices were high – way high, and I may have lost my taste when I saw the cook putting CHARCOAL and only charcoal in the grill. I may give M&M’s another try but I like hickory smoked meat – not charcoal meat and it was like I could taste the lighter fluid
The best BBQ and wings are found in Morristown, TN. The name is Chefdawg BBQ & Wings on W. AJ Hwy. They serve a GA and Memphis, TN style chopped pork , chicken and turkey. They also serve the best wings in TN and compare to the orginal Anchor Bar Wings in Buffalo, NY
To bad you guys don’t have a Rudy’s. There are several here in Texas and it is phenomenal. Between the lean brisket and the sissy sauce, it’s a tough combo to beat.
Oh, I wish I could remember the names (been too long ago) – but, just go to any rib joint on the south side of Chicago – and you will have discovered the BEST rib joint in the nation bar none!
