More than 45 years ago in Memphis, Brad ignited a passion for cooking fresh pork over live coals. His barbecued pork, beans, and slaw quickly captured the hearts of many, establishing eating at Brad's as a cherished tradition. Over time, Brad's grew to include three locations in the Mid-South: Bartlett, Oakland, and Moscow, TN. Although the Oakland and Moscow locations faced the tough choice to close on January 1, 2021, fans can still savor this Southern delicacy at Brad’s Bartlett, TN venue.

     As a family-owned business, Brad's is operated by the same family that founded it. Upholding their time-honored family technique, they slow-cook for hours over hickory, ensuring everything is made from scratch—NO "store-bought" sauces, NO "artificial" smoke. Our hot and mild sauces, slow-simmered over genuine pit-cooked BBQ, are crafted the same way today as they were back in the day. This commitment gives Brad's Honest To Goodness Barbecue an incredibly succulent and mouthwatering flavor that’s simply unmatched in the region.
