Memphis: Civil Rights History, Great Food & The Pyramid

We visited the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, the site where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated—now the civil rights museum. But Memphis isn’t just history—it’s flavor, soul, and energy. 🍖🔥 From legendary BBQ joints to hidden gem eateries, we tasted the city’s famous food culture and it did not disappoint. And to top it all off… we stepped inside one of the most unexpected attractions in America: the giant Bass Pro Shops Pyramid!

Brett found amazing ribs at central BBQ, and Juliet might have discovered her new favorite dessert, banana pudding.

Why is Memphis such a perfect mix of history, culture, and food? Watch and find out! 👀
