"Memphis is a barbecue town, and you’ll get a few different answers from Memphians if you ask about their favorite spots to hit up. Go for the Cozy Corner, a family-run and Black-owned favorite established in 1977, where the well-regarded barbecue earned owner Desiree Robinson an induction into the American Royal Barbecue Hall of Fame. The menu is standard Memphis barbecue, with sandwiches, meat plates (a slab of ribs or whole barbecue chicken, for example), dinner plates that include bread and sides (beans, coleslaw), and a variety of sauces that range from mild to super hot." - Andy Meek
