    This is an okay place. The regular BBQ sandwiches are quite small. Nothing particularly special.

    I just stumbled across this place, it's a local favorite, off the beaten path from the interstate…read morebut you can tell lots of history here. The waitress was a piece of work, very homey and its the kind of place that when ordering and trying to decide on what to order, adjacent table will chime in and offer their advice. I got the ribs-wet really succulent and as good as anything I've had in Memphis, very tasty and not needing much of any BBQ sauce. the sides also very good. Only downside to the place is no alcohol of any kind sold here.

    Stopped here while traveling from Mississippi on my way to Chicago and it truly turned out to be an…read moreexcellent choice. This place evidently has been doing there thing here for a minute or two and it's easy to see why they have made it such a long time. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich which came topped slaw. The pulled pork was very good... well smoked but not not overly smokey. Unlike most pulled pork I've had it was very lean and not at all greasy/fatty. The slaw on the sandwich was vinegar based and tasted to me exactly like dill pickles. I usually don't like this type of slaw but it truly paired well with the smoked pork, cutting through the smoke and helping to bring out its flavor. Sauce was optional with a choice between a vinegar/red pepper based sauce and a thicker/sweeter version with a similar taste profile. Both were tasty but truly not needed as the pork in the sandwich stood just fine by itself. The fresh cut french fries were fried exactly like my mother fried them... crispy on the ends and soft and fluffy in the interior... a delicious fry indeed. Good things stand the test of time and this place is a perfect example of that concept. Keep on doing what y'all are doing... it's working just fine!!!

    While driving from GA to OK we wanted to stop and enjoy some Memphis BBQ, without much detour…read more After searching all over the web, nothing really stood out to us as a must stop. With the reputation of Memphis bbq, we wanted more than a 4.3..which made this gem about 45 minutes into Arkansas stand out at a whopping 4.7. It was a little more detour than we expected, but totally worth it. Don't be thrown by the town around it. It has seen better days, but it was perfectly safe and everyone we encountered was super nice. When you finally happen upon Beatty Bs make sure the weather is in your favor. This is a to-go setup that is essentially an oversized storage unit with a kitchen. It's clean and well kept, but small with no seating. The smoker is even in a detached screened pavilion. All of this simplicity means one thing, rather than pay for overhead, they can focus on low prices and quality food. I don't think I've ever had meat with such an amazing deep smoke flavor. It was cooked so perfectly it slid off the bone. If I'm ever passing through the area again, I'll definitely be making the detour!

    They claim to be open on Thursday nights until 7:30 p.m. so we drove four hours from Nashville to…read moreeat here. They're supposed to be the best barbecue on all of Highway 70 in the state of Arkansas. But we'll never know. We arrived at 6:00 p.m. and the place was as dark and closed as it could be. Unless you live nearby and know their secret hours, I would not recommend attempting to dine here.
