Chances are it was either Corky's (East Memphis) or the Rendezvous (downtown).

I prefer Corky's... best BBQ sauce I have ever had.

The world's best barbucue restaurant is in Memphis, Austin TX, Kansas City MO or KN, Chicago, Lexington NC, Owensboro KY, Paduccah KY, Raleigh NC, West Columbia, SC, and Philadelphia PA (soon to open).

The one in Memphis is probably Charlie Vergos' Rendezvous for dry ribs. There's another place famous for wet ribs whose name escapes me right now.

You are probably thinking of Corky's.

  Maybe you are thinking of Corky's???  There is almost always a wait,
  but should be well worth it.  They also opened a new Corky's in
  Tunica, Mississippi - where all the new casinos are - about half
  an hour (maybe more) outside Memphis.

  Good luck!
