Delicious everything and great ladies behind the counter. Can't go wrong with a pulled pork sandwich with slaw and hot bbq sauce.

Miss Helen made our whole day in our trip from Virginia down to Ole Miss. I had the barbecue and bologna sandwich and the rest of the crew had pulled pork and ribs. They use wood which makes a big difference in the smoking. This isn't a fire but their smoke shack.

Helen's is different than your typical Memphis BBQ. It's homestyle like something you would find at the best church BBQ. The menu is very simple but every meat and side is obviously made with love.
I've tried everything on the menu. I really enjoyed ribs, pulled pork, polish sausage, coleslaw and baked beans. I highly recommend the pulled pork. It is some of the best I've ever had.
Helen is very friendly and so are the other people that work there. I don't think they have ever met a stranger.
Worth the drive from Memphis. -

Caught this place on the food network and since I was passing through, I decided to give it a spin. Excellent BBQ and can match up with any other joint anywhere.

Who could have guessed that this shack (a real bbq joint) would have some of the best Q I've ever tasted!
For over 23 years Helen has been a one woman show. Her husband may show up at 6:30 to start the hickory and oak fire, but after that's it's all her.
The quality and taste of everything is why she's been written up in Southern Living, and been invited to San Francisco, New York, and Switzerland to show how she does it.
We had ribs, pulled pork, sausage, and (believe it or not) smoked bologna. No food reviews here. Just trust me that it's all good!
