History
BBQ nachos rose as a Memphis stadium snack at AutoZone Park in the early 2000s, paired with pulled pork from Rendezvous and Central BBQ. By 2010 the dish had spread to most Memphis BBQ counters. Central BBQ codified the home version and the dish remains a Memphis road-trip souvenir from the city's parade of BBQ shops, restaurants and bars.
