Ridgewood BBQ

Reviewed by Jane & Michael Stern, frequent guests on the NPR's Splendid Table. Well worth the detour!

Enough said about the BBQ sandwich !!! Best pulled pork sandwich ever. Eaten a lot across the US. Impressed!!

Everything!! The blue cheese and crackers are the best!!

Great local BBQ ! I had the pork platter with blue cheese . Very good. Crowded , but great service.

Average BBQ at best. Both brisket & ribs are absent from the menu. Instead of pulled pork , they offer thin-sliced pork and beef , which is then fried, prior to being served, for some strange reason.

Great food and great service. You'll have to wait to get a table though.

If you go...order the pork sandwich with slaw and you must get a lil pot of beans! Love this place! :-)

One of the greats! Always slammed, but worth the wait. I like to get it to go.

For over 5 years, I lived in Memphis where I regularly experienced some of the best BBQ in the country . Overall, I would rate Ridgewood as an average BBQ establishment. No more. No less.

The beans and pork are Awesome!!! Don't waste the ketchup on the fries go with their BBQ sauce .

Shut up! Get your butt down to Bluff City and put some smokie thinly sliced pork (or beef ) sure enough Tennessee BBQ at Ridgewood in your mouth! You'll thank me later! Get yo PORK ON!

You cannot order ribs here, as they are absent from the menu. I would argue that you cannot have a "world class " BBQ establishment without having a "full rack of ribs " as an option on the menu.

Baked Beans were exceptional.

Good unique bbq . Usually long waits .

BBQ is wonderful but their baked beans are truly a standout item.

Really doesn't matter what you get, just make the drive. It's out of the way, but it's delicious and worth it! Read more

best value- ask for them to split a bbq platter for 2 people.

BBQ sandwich and Beans

Worth the wait!

Blue cheese dressing is awesome.

How can a place call itself a bbq restaurant if it only has two bbq sandwiches that are made the same way on a menu of fourteen items? Don't waste your time.

Blue cheese is AMAZING!!!

Try the Blue Cheese Bowl.

Awsome food. Yummy

Mmmmmmm Mmmmm

Hands down THE BEST BARBEQUE EVER! Definitely worth a visit especially for BBQ lovers! About 15 bucks for a huge sandwich , slaw , fries , beans and a drink.

It was okay, the salad is good, but personally it isn't my taste

Really, do you need a tip? Order the bbq .

Yummmmmmmm!

Yummm all around!

This is the best BBQ I ever had. You must try the pulled pork . You will never forget...

The bbq beans are the best beans I've ever eaten. They go great with a pork sandwich & split an order of fries . There is simply no better BBQ .
