Just visiting a relative of mine tonight…. He said he went to Martin's and after eating a full meal…. it was so good they got more to go ….
Pretty cool
There is this Haitian slaw called piklez. I put it on an American pulled pork sandwich, oh my God yall!!! Life isn't the same. Lol
I love spicy slaw on pulled pork now
Rather hear the chef an cooker speak for their food then these idiots 🤦🏾
Unless he’s from Memphis. Nashville is definitely middle Tennessee. Damn near in the middle of the state …
I agree with everything the man said..except slaw on the bbq. Why go through all that hardwork and produce such fine food, and then ruin it with slaw?!!!! To each his own…keep up the good work over there in Tennessee!

Got to come by when on tour
No secrets in cooking, I respect that
Z mięsem musi być równowaga na świecie .
Hold the slaw… I'll have it separately…!
I wholeheartedly agree about hiding recipes and secrets. If you have a good product it's good… Period.
Shots fired at Scotts bbq
Martins is overrated, big time. I'd rather drive down to Alabama to get some good cue, which I do regularly.
5:00 Didn't know Steven Adams smoked bbq during the off season
Just remember if it hadn't been been for Amerikkka Slavery u wouldn't have had this until centuries later….If ever!!!!…Facts!!!!👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
That meat is halal my friend hoooooooggggggggggggg
That dude was stepping on the grill ? Uhmmm . Nope 👎🏽
2:38 John cenaaaaaaaa
Is this a Beer joint or BBQ joint?
Just one thing to say…
Humble respect from France America 👍👍
Well God Damn that’s looks tasty AF
Absolutely can not stand to see them get inside the pit, on the rack, with ready to eat food. 3:14 Saw him do this on TV too. I guess he thinks it's cute. It's not.
I can't eat somewhere that ain't got no cracklins
Nashville? PLEASE! If you want great true southern bar b que go to the Miss DELTA where some fat black man is sweating for days to get it right and been doing it 30 years. This is just another ad paid to a magazine to boost profits.
Good Stuff. 👌🏼👍🏻
at 1;17 who is the man calling the pigs ? just curious because i know the picture is just north of joseph ,oregon with the wallowa mountains in the background. i'm 4th generation born and raised here but don't recognize the farmer.
If someone ask me about west Tennessee bbq I would think Memphis. Nashville is not west Tennessee.
Ate here last month!!! So fuuuuxxkin good
Sir Nashville tn. Is not west tn. West tn is Dyersburg Tn. Back to the Ms. Line is west Tn.
The cooked skin looks like leather, not eastern NC bbq.
Nice video…………………..
It's funny to see people talk about america history in cooking but never tell the truth about how it got started
Marten’s is a great place. Luckily my hotel was across the street and basically ate there for 3 days straight.
Thanks Pat for sharing your knowledge learn a lot from that.
Can any wood be burned down to coals for fuel or should it be a certain type of wood ?
I join bbq since a few years here in Germany… What i like most is the way of cooking. Fire, smoke, choals… I love it. If i only had the money, i would spend my holydays in US southern states every year
awesome, i need ti build a hog pit
Driving to Nashville in a couple of days. Should I stop here or princes?
