The Atlas Review
The BBQ Atlas
A&R has been smoking ribs and pulled pork on Elvis Presley Boulevard since 1983, and they're still at it.
This is Memphis barbecue done the slow way — ribs, pulled pork, rib tips, and catfish, cooked low and patient. A&R opened in 1983 and has stayed put, a steady presence on the boulevard where it started.
Open weekdays until six, weekends until eight. No fuss, no mystery — just the work of four decades.
