Emmylou's

This pop-up is now the kitchen at Chiki-Wah-Wah serving up great BBQ Sammies. I had the pulled pork sandwich and it was great. The pulled pork was very flavorful on a great toasted bun with some of the best B&B pickles and slaw I have had in a while.

Located in the St Roch Market place. Unfortunately they were out of the ribs, which only lets me know I have to go back. From what I saw on other plates they gonna be good.

Great lil barbecue spot in St. Roch Market. Been here twice and was more than satisfied on both occasions. The meat is tasty and the sides are lovingly prepared. A welcome addition to the neighborhood!

I had high expectations going into this place, but was pleasantly surprised. The "beef cheek" was a new dish for me, but the chef insisted I try it. He was right! It was sort of like brisket, but much juicier. Judging by their Instagram, they do specials every week too. Gotta try that burger!

The best bbq I've had in NOLA. The smoked beef cheek is hands down one of the best cuts of beef I've ever had. The jalapeño/cheddar sausage really shines especially as a sandwich with all the fixings. Definitely try the cheeseburger which is made from ground beef cheeks. Last time I went I did myself a favor and grabbed a beer from the bar across the hall and took my time chowing on this delicious bbq. Highly recommend!

Love the Turkey! Also pimento cheese with candied jalepenos make a great option over cocktails. Delightful new addition to the market. Conveniently tucked across from the bar.

Don't pass up Emmylou's just because you don't see any smokers going for the BBQ. Shannon honed his skills with Blue Oak BBQ and he's brought them with him. I had the beef cheeks and ribs, and neither could have been better. It was my first time for cheeks, and they were as tender as brisket but with a "beefier" taste. Ribs were tender, and the potato salad and beans were good sides. He makes his own pickles, too.

The perfect balance of flavors. Often BBQ is too Smokey and the sides are too sweet or too vinegary. Emmylou stricken the perfect balance. The pickled sides are amazing. I bought a jar of each. The best was the pickled onion with horseradish!

We ordered the "all of the stuff we have today" to go and everything was AMAZING! It literally came with everything on the menu. Would highly recommend if you're visiting with a group. It would be hard to decide on on just one or two meats, but if I had to I would go with the ribs or pork. Best option is to get it all, you won't regret it. Oh and don't forget the frito pie!
