Spares to compare

[David Willis]

I've done my share of spares on my WSM and each batch gets a bit better thanks to this forum. I've always wondered, though, how good they "really" are. I've been to plenty o' "boiled in the bag" restaurants, but I'm going to Memphis this weekend and was hoping to get some of the city's best. Any recommendations?

Feel free to move this to the right forum if this is the wrong one.

Thanks!

A trip to Rendezvous is pretty much obligatory and I'd suggest Interstate and Cozy Corner, at least. I haven't been to CC in a while but it was always worth a stop. Rendezvous is less consistent than they should be but when they're on they're on and the place is interesting. Don't be surprised if you don't find the ribs as good as yours.

I concur with Kevin on Interstate. Some years ago I went there and it was great. My boss brought home several quarts of sauce!
