Asking for BBQ sauce at Charlie Vergo's Rendezvous BBQ in Memphis will earn you a good matured scolding and lecture on the evils of "wet ribs", complete with the threat that "you do not deserve my ribs!" They are also IMO some of the very finest ribs in the known and charted world ..... and I have eaten at the best BBQ joints from NC to TN to TX to KC .... and all points in between.

LndLocked: Lived in Memphis for 5 years The biggest battle was what was better dry or wet ribs. had been to Rendezvous many times. My wife flipped when she saw the only thing they changed on their plates was the aluminum foil...gross her out
The second biggest argument best place for catfish.
Best pull pork sandwich was a little place on Elvis Presley Blvd (I think it was Bills BBQ) run by husband and wife. the wife's father started the Leonard BBQ
