History
Craig Blondis and Roger Sapp met on the BBQ circuit in the mid-80s. After competing in Memphis in May's World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest and many other local and regional BBQ competitions they made the leap from friends to business partners. The pit at the first Central BBQ on Central Avenue was fired up in 2002 and from day one has been a success thanks to their wonderful customers. To keep up with increasing demand, a second location on Summer Avenue was opened in 2006. With a reputation for great BBQ and great times, the Summer location has become a gathering spot for banquets and parties. With three huge Hi-Def TV's the Tiger Room at Central BBQ is the place to watch University of Memphis Tiger sports.
