Market Street Deli and BBQ

I really wanted to hate this place - I really did. I felt I'd been lured in on false pretenses, the '& BBQ' part of the sign being exposed as a lie when the gal behind the counter took a cup of pulled pork OUT OF THE REFRIGERATOR!! and popped it IN THE MICROWAVE!! to make my pulled pork sandwich (which did not come with slaw - thank you very much - for $5.95). Add to this inattentive service and I was all set to write a scathing review.

Then I bit in. Mmmm . . . smoky, porky meat; spicy sauce, tender but not fatty. Damn good actually. Won't win Memphis in May but better than some BBQ specialty joints around town.

Lesson learned; you never know until you bite in.
