Memphis Blues BBQ - Vancouver
Pretty meat heavy around here today, but this BBQ joint in Vancouver seems to good to ignore. A few years ago the owners became obsessed with Memphis-style meat, went down there for an immersion into barbeque culture, and returned to Vancouver determined to clog the arteries of all those Vancouver hippies. They're doing brisk trade in ribs, brisket, and the house speciality, Cornish game hen. There are some dishes with a Canadian twist, such as the BBQ poutine (clearly labeled on the menu as "not a Memphis specialty), but they're not about to give in to health-conscious west coasters - the "salad" menu reads brisket on greens, pork on greens, rib ends on greens...
