Over 45 years ago in Memphis, Brad began cooking fresh pork over live coals. People liked his barbecued pork, beans and slaw so much, that eating at Brad's became a favorite tradition. Over the years Brad's expanded to 3 Mid-South Locations (Bartlett, Oakland and Moscow, TN). The Oakland and Moscow locations made the difficult decision to close on January 1, 2021. However, today folks can enjoy this southern taste treat at Brad’s Bartlett, TN location. Brad's is a family-owned business run by the same family who started it. Brad's maintains its traditional family method of slow cooking for hours over hickory and making everything from scratch. NO "store bought" sauces, NO "artificial" smoke. Our slow-simmered hot and mild sauces over real pit-cooked BBQ is done the same way today as it was back then. This gives Brad's Honest To Goodness Barbecue the most succulent and delicious taste you're going to find in these parts.
