Abe's B Q - Clarksdale

Good BBQ. We ate here several times. The onion rings are the best I've ever had. The beef sandwich was good , just needs more sauce. The fries are ok and the bbq sauce is so good we bought some to take home.

Abe 's struck me as Old School Mississippi BBQ. (I say that based on watching a recent episode of Anthony Bourdain 's Parts Unknown where he explored BBQ in this part of Mississippi and even the chefs he talked to said it was hard to put your finger on a specific characteristic of their Q! Abe 's looks like it 's been there a long time and all the music related photos (Elvis, etc on the walls help set that mood. I had The Big Abe sandwich which was the pulled pork with cole slaw and some great baked beans. It was all around good eatin ' and the folks were very friendly. A great stop on my long drive down from St. Louis!

We rolled into Clarksdale, just ahead of a storm that we had driven through for most of the last 100 miles, following us like a “Hellhound on My Trail”. Driving south through Arkansas into Mississippi, we were going down to the crossroads, hoping to catch Abe’s Bar-B-Q, as opposed to a ride.

Not great bbq. Sauce on the other hand is great. Ate here few months ago and it was so so. Figured I might have just been on a bad day. Nope it's just not good. Taste like it's cooked to fast and then sliced and finished. Not the way to do bbq. People are nice so I may stop in again and try a burger.

NOT GOOD No smoked taste. Service was good but the BBQ was very disappointing. It did not have a smoked taste at all. we left there an when to dreamboat BBQ at 232 sunflower and purchased bbq and tamales that was MUCH MUCH Better. next time we are going to try dreamboat BBQ ribs.
