Lizzie’s Memphis Style Barbecue (Menu 2026)

Lizzie’s Memphis Style Barbecue began as a small roadside smokehouse founded by Lizzie Carter in the early 1980s, right in the heart of Memphis. What started with a single smoker and her grandmother’s recipes quickly grew into a local landmark, drawing crowds who couldn’t resist the aroma of slow-cooked ribs and hickory-smoked pulled pork. However, word of mouth spread, and Lizzie’s expanded into a full restaurant that has stayed true to its soulful Southern roots.

As the menu evolved, Lizzie’s introduced fan favorites like juicy brisket, tangy slaw, and their famous barbecue nachos. Yet, what many diners don’t know is that a secret menu exists—filled with hidden gems like off-menu sandwiches and smoky twists on classic sides. While adventurous eaters enjoy uncovering those surprises, the original signature slow-smoked ribs remain the cornerstone, reminding guests why Lizzie’s became a beloved name in barbecue in the first place.
