0 reviews“Winchester Road smoke from breakfast till dinner”
Reese's Bar-B-Q is a long-running Winchester Road smokehouse where the fire starts early, the counter opening by nine in the morning and running straight through dinner. It has kept southeast Memphis fed for years, working-class barbecue with no pretense and hours built around real people's schedules. The menu leans classic and hearty: chopped pork sandwiches with a genuine smoke edge, dry-rub ribs pulled from the pit with a firm, seasoned bark, and smoked hot links that give the tray its shot of heat. Pulled pork plates with classic sides round out a lineup priced for regulars rather than tourists. There is no destination-dining theater here, just an honest counter that opens before most pits have even lit their smokers, which is exactly why the southeast side relies on it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner alike.

A long-running Winchester Road smokehouse where the smoke starts by nine and runs through dinner. The chopped pork, dry ribs, and hot links are honest, unfussy southeast Memphis 'cue.
