Overview
There are two dimensions that make a restaurant a truly remarkable dining experience. One is the atmosphere. Now in the world of BBQ, at least, it can be tricky to please everyone's tastes. Most BBQ restaurants find it difficult to appeal to your "hardcore, hole-in-the-wall, hometown, loyal juke jointers", and your "mother of three needs to feed her kids something besides pizza if only there were a place to get BBQ ribs and my feet didn't stick to the floor" type customers at the same time. Yet Bad Bob's BBQ restaurants are renowned for just that, and people all over the country are beginning to see what it means to visit a Bad Bob's. If the smell of championship quality smoked ribs and chicken doesn't hit you from the street, then the twang of Memphis blues and the bold red and black decor will certainly grab you right as you open that door. The Bad Bob's mascot, with his snarling grin, just about sum it all up.
After you've got them seated the other dimension, of course, is the product itself. Now here is something everyone agrees on. We have adapted our best recipes from the competition circuit and are able to produce a high quality item that is worthy of a Memphis in May judges palate. For most of your crossover boys, your everday patron eats nothing quite like a grand champion winning pork shoulder that has been smoked for ten hours. Our revolutionary process, however, allows amazing control and consistency of our food as it cooks in a computer controlled smoker overnight. What's more is that we provide all rubs and sauces on the side. Try to find a BBQ joint confident enough to serve their food undoused and unseasoned. What they call the status qou, we call having something to hide. And although we have our methods in the kitchen, our customers have found our rubs and sauces to compliment everything from potato chips to eggs, hence the Bad Bob's Hot Sauce motto: "It's not just for breakfast anymore."
The point is, owning a Bad Bob's is more than just a lucrative business opportunity, it's the ability to become involved in an establishment you can be proud of; the type of place people talk about. We are quickly becoming the hometown hangout and supper quick pick up for BBQ fans everywhere

Products & Services
A fire proof glove waves through a cloud of smoke as a man peers into a dark object. He bravely reaches in and produces a perfectly smoked pork shoulder -- still sizzling like a comet come to earth. A grin creeps on his face, as he knows he's created a monster. Every rack of delicious baby-back ribs was perfectly moist and each arched bone was alive with a deep smoky red glaze. As the judges "oohed" and "aahed" over their succulent supper, they had no idea they were about to bite into the meanest tasting BBQ in West Tennessee. This was slow smoked -- with a volatile combination of herbs and spices; injected with sauces that defy imagination and incubated to the sound of muffled mid 70's classic rock as it emitted over the loudspeakers of a Memphis in May cook-off.
After a few years and some big wins on the competition circuit, he had meticulously perfected his recipes and word soon got out about the monstrous taste of this championship BBQ. It wasn't long before Bad Bob was back in the lab etching out a way to bring the same level of attention and quality to slow smoked pork in the restaurant atmosphere. The answer was a computer controlled smoker that can regulate the cooking process even while you sleep. Gone are the days of BBQ by convection oven, prepared a few hours before you arrive. These are championship quality Boston Butts cooked for nearly half a day. This isn't dry chopped pork doused with smoke flavoring and a vinegar based sauce, these are hand pulled portions of tender Boston Butt. With a bottle of Bad Bob's Special Sauce and Bad Bob's Hawg Rub at every table, you've got access to a unique compliment that's perfectly blended to accentuate your BBQ euphoria. Of course, it stands so well on it's own we ask you to try your first bite of Bad Bob's bare. Be careful, it might bite you back...
