Reviews for Leonard's Pit Barbecue in Memphis, TN
I don't think the barbecue was made that day. I didn't smell the pit burning but realized that too late. I'm not sure if they're... following the methods the place was founded with but it didn't seem like a barbecue that could span one hundred years. Thewiring is better than the food. Read more
Well that crazy mustard slaw is definitely some good eats as well as the beans and the ribs....Totally Awsome.. Customer service... was great as well. Dont let the outside apperance keep you from trying out this fine BBQ establishment Read more
Extremely inviting and friendly staff . Everything we got was delicious but the ribs were a bit overdone and dry , good on... flavor though . Read more
Server was friendly but food came out super slow despite the fact it wasn't busy. Caveat though, was definitely worth the wait. ... The ribs were fantastic. Got them dry. The seasoning was great and they were fall off the bone tender. Beans and bread werealso delicious. Read more
Called ahead and they said their credit card machine was broken but were open until 2. So we went and got cash, showed up at... 12:45, and they said they decided to close early. What a joke. The parking lot area is also sketchy. We went a short way downthe road to the Three Little Pigs barbecue and it was 5 stars outstanding. Go there instead. Read more
Ribs are small, but meaty! Nice rub and very tasty. Not overcooked. There?s something about Memphis ribs. No one seems to take... the silver back off! So far, every slab I?ve gotten has that membrane still on it! Never seen that and I can say I?m not a fan.It kind of gets in the way! Oh well. The ribs are sticking together but have a nice pull. Not too tight. The sauce is a littlethin but has a surprising taste. It?s not spicy but tangy. And rich. Maybe a little coffee? I don?t drink it, so I?m guessing.As for the sides, the slaw is ground! Wow! It?s very fine and sweet. Then sour. Then a vinegar aftertaste. Very easy to eat! Thebaked beans have pulled pork in them. Very good. Still sweet but rich tasting. Lots of pork in the beans. Very tasty. Read more
When you taste the word barbecue in your life this is what it tasted like in the very beginning. Essential stop for anyone that... loves the food and honors the craft of slow and low. The hospitality is second to none too. Thank you everyone for today. Read more
I've been here 2x. Once a few years ago. Food is still some of the best I've ever had. Ribs are fall of the bone tender. Catfish... almost melts in your mouth while still having a good crunch. Service is like having dinner at grandmas house. Can't recommendthis place enough Read more
