Memphis BBQ spaghetti · Memphis
Memphis BBQ spaghetti is pulled pork tossed with tomato BBQ sauce over a pile of cooked spaghetti, a city-only Italian-American-meets-pit barbecue mash-up since 1987.
The Bar-B-Q Shop on Madison Avenue invented BBQ spaghetti when Frank Vernon adapted a recipe handed down from Brady Vincent at the Brady and Lil's BBQ pit. The Vernons opened the Bar-B-Q Shop in November 1987 and put BBQ spaghetti on the menu as a side. By the early 2000s the dish was on Food Network and on most Memphis BBQ counter menus as a side or full plate.
