Reds Coldwater BBQ and Blues

Fantastic food, music and ambiance!! If you want to visit another place and time with a great vibe, Red's hits the mark!

James has created a gourmet experience just south of Memphis. The boudin balls were best I've ever tasted and the meats, veggies, and taters were fresh and first rate. We had a near private concert from Blues Award winner Doug MacLeod which was as real and authentic as it gets in blues country.

OMG! The food was phenomenal! Boudin's, smoked tenderloin, smoked pork steak, etc. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic pulled pork sandwich & sides were splendid as well. Phenomenal waitress too. Expedited my order because i needed to get back in the road to music city. I've found my food stop on 55 between memphis & jackson. This is it; so glad I stopped in. Didn't have time to listen to the music so no real comment on it.

They would not give me a many asked what I was allergic too then told me for 50.00 they will bring us 4 big plate fulls. The best thing was the first plate the one egg roll on a plate. The rest was uncooked chicken, spinach, one slice of pork butt the size of bacon, and deep fried uncooked spaghetti noodles. The worst place I have ever been! The owner had us sniff his oil so we knew where the flavor came from smh that was highway robbery close to comedy

The absolute best meal I have had in a long time! I highly recommend. Great music, best food ever, wonderful owner. We had the prime rib special and it was seriously the best meal, fresh salad picked out of the garden on site, most tender and flavorful prime rib. Smokehouses on site, gardens on site, truly local food.

Best brisket ive ever had! Boudin balls were slammin! Everything is done the right way. Seems like just one guy running the whole show. Good prices. The gritty vibe was on point aswell. Definitely coming back and having everything else.

You will love Red's Coldwater BBQ and Blues! Take the time to visit a very unique, eclectic environment, awesome BBQ with a twist, all created by talented chef James. Great music, great atmosphere and incredible BBQ! If you are passing through - it's a must stop, great experience!

This place has inspired my first Yelp review. I only heard of this place a few days ago. But I must tell you, these folk have outdone themselves. The explosion of different flavors experienced today while eating my pulled pork sandwich and taters will keep me coming back for as long as they will have me. No sauce on this sandwich because it didn't need any sauce. When I go to a new place, I usually find an item on the menu and order it each time I visit. I'm not very adventurous when it comes to trying new things. Here, I will not rest until I have tried everything they have to offer. And on top of the delicious fare, they've got live music to boot.

Excellent BBQ, service and live Blues music! My wife had the filet mignon and I had Chicken Fried Smoked Brisket, very unique and very good!
