    I grew up in the Bootheel at the top of the Delta, where Chubby's BBQ is a legend. My wife is from…read moreMississippi County, Arkansas, home of the Dixie Pig, another legend. So when I talk about Delta barbecue, I'm coming from a place of love... and pretty high standards. Abe's is part legend, part myth, and all Crossroads. If it's your first visit, let me save you some confusion: yes, the tamales are one of the signature items at a barbecue joint. And yes, they're every bit as good as you've heard. I get mine with chili, slaw, and crackers, and I'll happily eat enough of them to make myself miserable--in the best possible way. Then it's time for a chili cheese dog, a pig sandwich with slaw, and enough sweet tea to float a jon boat. It's probably a good thing I only pass through Clarksdale every couple of months on the drive between New Orleans and my hometown. If I lived closer, my doctor and my waistband would both have something to say about it. This place is famous throughout the Delta for a reason. I've been stopping at Abe's for over three decades, and it has never disappointed.

    While we were working in a nearby town, we kept hearing how good Abe's BBQ in Clarksdale was, so we…read moredecided to check it out after work. Definitely get why people recommend them. I had the tamale plate, while my co-worker had the tamales and beans. Service was quick and super friendly, and there's a ton of memorabilia on the walls to look at. If I find myself at the Crossroads again, I'll be back!

    I went there looking forward to seeing this establishment. The ambience was really nice. I was…read morealone and sat at the bar to have a beer and something to eat. I was only the only customer at the bar and the bartender served me my drink and then went to the far end of the bar to look at her phone. I waited a while and then asked her some questions about the area and she gave me quick answers, and went back to scrolling on her phone. The place seems really cool, but that kind of service wasnt.

    Of course, their music was what attracted many people over from all over the world, but I can…read morehonestly say that out of the food that I have had, I thoroughly enjoyed it all in terms of taste. It was economical, too, so we had quality food while spending a reasonable amount of money. I had the catfish BLT, which was a simple catfish burger with the most basic ingredients. Yet the catfish itself was so tasty that I didn't even need ketchup or mayo for the burger. It was so seasoned that it definitely made the burger an enjoyable experience. My partner had the kingfish platter which was essentially catfish as well. But then there was a small cup of coleslaw that we both thought was the best we've had, mainly because they didn't use mayo but some kind of vinegar to supplement the taste. And then my partner had the deep fried pecan pie and I had a taste of it. Even though I am not even the biggest fan of pecan pie, I really enjoyed that one and I think it was because the deep fried aspect along with whipped cream complemented the gelatinous material in pecan pies (don't know how to call it). There was music 365 days a week in the club, and particularly we were there during the annual Sunflower River Blues & Gospel Festival, so it was extra special. There were visitors all over the world attending the festival and many great bands played in the club. The amount of mess on the walls in the club speaks to the historically and culturally rich aspect of this club and of this town. Definitely a 5 star experience.
