Our founder Don Pelts envisioned a BBQ joint that served authentic Memphis BBQ in a laid-back setting. In 1984, he found the perfect location, and the rest is Memphis history. The Pelts family lives and breathes Corky’s. That dedication resonates in each rack of ribs we take off the pit and every pork shoulder we pull. We just want you and your family to enjoy our life’s work. So stop in any of our Memphis locations or have our legendary BBQ shipped to your door anywhere in the U.S.
All our meats are slow-cooked the old-fashioned way over hickory and charcoal. Each slab of ribs is trimmed to our strict specifications, and every pork shoulder is hand-pulled. Roll up your sleeves and dig in to some of the best BBQ in the world.

We were seated at 7:03 and placed an order. We didn’t get our food until 8:09. There were 5 tables (counting ours) with customers.

Nice friendly staff and the place was nice and clean. My issue was the food itself. Had ribs and smoked sausage combo. I do t know if the meat was old or somthing but it did not taste as I remembered Corey’s. I haven’t eaten here in a while. Maybe they made a change in the bbq recipe.

This place is top shelf. I’ve been on a competition bbq team for a decade and we compete in ribs, and I’m tellin you, these ribs are some of the best in Memphis.

This was our second time at this restaurant. Once again we experienced dry and even burnt brisket as well as tough ribs…beef jerky tough. I even told them when I ordered that our first experience had been rough. That made no difference. $180 later and yet another terrible experience. I would definitely not recommend this establishment to anyone.

I’ve been going to this place my whole life and it’s a shame to see what has happened to it. They’ve changed their onion loaf to where it’s not recognizable anymore. More like large onion rings smushed together. The breading was soggy with grease and overcooked yet the onions were undercooked. The pulled pork sandwich was dry and had little flavor. The ribs tasted like they smothered them in nothing but paprika and they were overcooked. Hush puppies were chewy. The beans were still pretty good. It’s the only thing i actually enjoyed. I used to rave about Corky’s to everyone, but now I might never go back.

We really used to enjoy this place but over the past year it has really gone down. I paid $24 for a 2-pc catfish plate w/spaghetti tonight only to get home & find that my fish has been half cooked. This is not my first inconvenience with this location but it will definitely be the last.

I recently visited Corky’s BBQ in Collierville, Tennessee, while in town for a family reunion, and let me tell you, it was an unforgettable experience! A friend had recommended this place to me, and I’m so glad I took their advice. The true star of our visit was the fantastic manager, Wade.

Came for dinner about 10 minutes ago went to the drive thru to receive a rubberized rib. I politely called the store before I returned the items. Upon my return I were willing to accept a remake because things happen, in return I received a portion of rib that were burned crusted and looked as if it been directly under a heat lamp for days. I returned the item luckily I checked this before leaving I were refunded with the worst customer service ever this is definitely not how you treat anyone food is to expensive I’m sure we all can relate
