Grand Opening Weekend Party Includes Food & Drink Specials

MEMPHIS, Tenn., October 11, 2017 – Corky’s BBQ announced today the expansion of their Cordova restaurant bar area with additional seating, three wide-screen televisions, and the addition of liquor to the menu. Beginning Friday, October 13 and continuing through Sunday, October 15th, the Corky’s Cordova will offer $2 draft beers and $2 specialty cocktails to celebrate the new bar and welcome customers.

“Watching sports and eating Corky’s BBQ go together,” said Barry Pelts, co-owner of Corky’s. The expanded and renovated bar in our Cordova restaurant now has three new large-screen TVs, allowing our customers to watch their favorite sports and entertainment programs in a relaxed and casual environment while enjoying Corky’s award winning BBQ. Offering cocktails and mixed drinks at our Cordova location lets us offer our customers more options when they dine with us.”

Corky’s BBQ’s Cordova location at 1740 N. Germantown Parkway has served customers since 1998 and offers an upstairs party room that seats up to 65 people. The room is ideal for corporate groups, club meetings, alumni events, and wedding functions.

“We’re continually striving to meet the needs of our customers, just like my dad did when he opened our original location 30 years ago,” Pelts said.

About Corky’s BBQ:

Corky’s BBQ lives and breathes in the BBQ CAPITAL OF THE WORLD: MEMPHIS, TN! Home to over 100 BBQ specific restaurants, Corky’s has been Voted the #1 BBQ in Memphis by Readers Polls over 22 times! Don Pelts decided almost 30 years ago to open Corky’s BBQ with the following requirements: 1. Buy the very best raw products 2. Cook the old-fashioned way over hickory and charcoal 3. Hire the best team to support his ‘vision’ for Corky’s 4. ‘Do it right EVERY TIME!’

The success of Corky’s dining room business led to a booming drive-thru / take out business that had never been done before in Memphis BBQ. Within a year of opening, Corky’s started taking its great BBQ to people’s homes, businesses and picnic facilities with its full-service Catering Team. They arrive, set up, serve and let the customer just have fun! Corky’s has catered events as large as 18,000 people and served them all in 2 hours! So many out of town customers would enjoy a ‘Taste of Memphis’ while at Corky’s in the early years that we opened a USDA inspected processing facility in 1991. That original 900 square foot space has been improved over the years to now 53,000 square feet! Our BBQ is shipped overnight to sports stars, Hollywood celebs, and people all over the world. This facility also cooks all the food that Corky’s ships to Supermarkets including Wal-mart, Kroger, Publix, Costco, and many others.
