Editorial Review for Dwight's Southern Bar-B-Q – by Lise Funderburg

In Short
Dwight's pork ribs are beyond reproach - seared on the outside and tender at the bone. The beef ribs are succulent and flavorful, if a little fatty. Perhaps this is like complaining if the sky is blue. Save room for side dishes like candied yams, collards and a truly superior mac and cheese that combines Longhorn cheddar, sharp cheddar and parmesan.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

Bypass the regular sauce and go straight to hot. It's not incendiary, but the spices are more complex and concentrated.

I am from Memphis TN. Once I have gotten a taste of Dwight's sauce I was sold. There wasn't much of a smoke flavor, but the sauce mask the need for that. I have to have Dwight's Ribs at least once a week.

Pros: Good Food

Cons: Parking and that they are closed on Mondays

Great BBQ with a lot of meat. The sauce is a good mix of hot and sweet. The mac n cheese is great, and I know mac n cheese. The service was quick and the price was reasonable.
