My name is Chris Dodge and I live right here in the great state of Tennessee. My family and I are full adventurers filled with passion to see the amazing things our state has to offer. We are avid hikers and have explored many different places in Tennessee and beyond but we are always thankful to be living in such a glorious state.
The art of whole hog BBQ has a long history and is a culinary craft all its own. Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint has perfected this art and now serves up delicious Tennessee ‘cue to all who come. This isn’t just another barbecue joint in Tennessee; this is a story of expression, a honed art form, and a tale of American success.
It all started when one man, Pat Martin, experienced "whole hog BBQ" and fell in love. He started putting his skills to the test and found a fascination for the history and expression of cooking, tapping into his primal, carnivorous cravings.
The first location was born in 2006 in Nolensville, Tennessee, and since then, it's been a continuous climb as the success of the business propelled them forward. Today, Martin's BBQ Joint has multiple locations across the South; many of them are still in Pat’s home state but others have branched off into other states like Kentucky, South Carolina, and Alabama.
The smell, the flavor, and the nature of whole hog BBQ is a fascinating process that happens a whole 24 hours before it is delivered to your plate. Starting fresh every day, a new pig is cooked over open fire, slow and low until its perfectly succulent and unbelievably delicious.
Everything in the restaurant is made from scratch, from sauces to sides. The menu boasts of good old classic Tennessee favorites to pair with the 'cue, as well as their famous BBQ nachos.
Grab a tray of succulent meats, your choice of cut from ribs to pulled pork. Need a quick bite to eat? Check out the Redneck Tacos or the popular Brisket Tacos.
If you are hosting a big gathering, let Martin’s do the cooking. They have several catering options, especially for the holidays. Their annual specials can add a massive amount of flavor to your next big event.
Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint is the quintessential whole hog BBQ place in Tennessee. More than just another West Tennessee-style BBQ restaurant, you can be part of a story that is ever-growing and has many people in the South salivating just thinking about the smoked meats. Join in on the whole hog fun by visiting your nearest Martin’s Bar-B-Que today.
