Hog Heaven

So I had to report immediately about my BBQ adventure.  Dad had told me about Rendezvous...this old school BBQ place he used to go to back when he was in grad school in Memphis.  I actually happened upon it this afternoon and thought it looked pretty authentic.  I rounded up the meat eaters in the tour gang and we headed there around 7:30.  The entrance is off the street in this little alley, and it was packed!  Tons of people waiting outside to get in...looked promising.  The place was huge....almost a whole city block underneath the building.  As soon as you walked in the meat smell hit you like a brick wall.  My mouth was watering.  Our waiter, I think his name was Arnold, had been slinging ribs there since 1973....SHEESH.  Dad...we probably had the same waiter!  I had the small portion of ribs, baked beans and slaw.  I licked my plate and fingers clean.  (Before and after pics below)  We hit Memphis gold.
