Introduction to the Rhodes BBQ Seminar

Memphis is known for its excellent barbecue, and Rhodes College is a long-standing Memphis institution. It seems only natural that there should be a means for the members of the Rhodes community to explore Memphis barbecue together. This is the purpose of the Rhodes BBQ Seminar.

The term "seminar" is used loosely and with humor here, and is only a reference to Rhodes' academic nature. We have not yet incorporated any lectures on the history, sociology, or anthropology of barbecue. At least one professor has expressed regret about this, so perhaps we will find some authorities to address us at some point.

The BBQ Seminar is open to all associated with the Rhodes community and to their families.
