Long time place to pick up ribs. They were once located a mile or so down Hwy 7 in an old convenience store that also sold cold beer on Sundays - a haven for generations of Ole Miss students when Oxford was still dry on Sundays. There was nothing like rolling the windows down and heading up Hwy 7 to grab cold beer and a rack of delicious ribs on a beautiful spring Sunday afternoon back in the day.While the location has changed and they no longer sell beer, they still cook ribs and they’re as good as ever. Get there early as they can run out. If they are out of ribs, they’ll likely have rib tips, which are just as mouth watering as the complete version.When you first walk in, you may question whether you’ve actually entered a restaurant, but you’re in the right place and they’ll take good care of you. The inside doesn’t offer much on atmosphere, but take your ribs outside and plop down on your tailgate and the atmosphere goes from 2 stars to 5 in a hurry.The ribs are Memphis style dry rub. If you like sauce, don’t worry as they’ll provide a side of it for dipping. These are the best ribs you’ll find anywhere in North Mississippi, in my opinion.Cash only. BYOB.

Nice folks. Like eating in someone's house. Stopped in here Sunday with Little Joe Ayers. We both had cheeseburgers. Very tasty with a sweet brioche bun. Crinkle cut fries were nice and crispy. The lady who runs it is very polite. Her father, Tim, was there and he gave us a great tip on a joint in Phillip, MS since we were heading that area. Place is out front of where they have the Hill Country Picnic. Only complaint was no iced tea

This is the current actual location of the historic Betty Davis BBQ. This operation goes back over 60 years. It still has the old Mississippi country charm the harkens back to a bygone age of slow cooked bbq and the cooking down sorghum molasses. Everything here is still done as it always was. The owner still raises his own hogs on the property behind the store. You cannot get more farm to table than this!Try EVERYTHING. This kind food almost doesn't exist anymore. Everything is hand made from scratch. Everything. Eat it. Talk to the owner. This is vanishing living history. They even have old country store prices. Jus amazing.Kid-friendliness: Bring you children to see how things use to be before it's gone.
