Five Stars – A True Hidden Gem of Tennessee BBQ!

If you're anywhere near Parsons, Tennessee, do not miss the chance to stop by Ramey's Whole Hog BBQ. This place is an absolute treasure for barbecue lovers. From the moment you pull up, you know you’re in for something special – the smoky aroma in the air sets the stage perfectly.

The whole hog BBQ is nothing short of legendary. You can taste the craftsmanship and tradition in every bite – tender, juicy, and kissed with just the right amount of smoke. Their pulled pork is melt-in-your-mouth good, with a perfect bark and that signature whole-hog flavor that’s hard to find and even harder to forget.

But it doesn't stop there – the sides are just as impressive. Their slaw is crisp and fresh with a perfect tang, the baked beans are rich and flavorful, and their house-made sauces strike the ideal balance of sweet, tangy, and spicy.

The atmosphere is down-home and welcoming, and the staff treats you like family. Whether you're a BBQ aficionado or just hungry for something real and delicious, Ramey’s delivers an authentic experience that’s worth a detour – or even a road trip.

In a world full of cookie-cutter chains, Ramey’s Whole Hog BBQ stands out as the real deal. This isn’t just good BBQ – it’s great, and it’s served with heart. Highly recommend!

Take this to heart…

Look for someone who genuinely wants to know you — not just the surface, but the real you.

Look for someone whose intentions are clear from the start.
Someone who’s more than just a lover…
A friend, a partner, a rock when life gets heavy and you’re ready to break — and they help you stand again.

Look for someone who respects you and your children.
Who shows up not just with words, but with effort.
The one who takes a day off work just to care for you when you’re sick.

Look for someone who pushes you to grow, who motivates you to reach higher, do better — because real love is more than butterflies, it’s building a life and becoming better together.

Look for patience, understanding, integrity.
Someone who can admit when they’re wrong, and who values growth — not just love, but learning and evolving with you.

It’s not about someone giving you the whole world.
It’s about someone who makes you feel like you’re the only one in it.

Take my advice:
Look for someone who touches your heart in ways you never knew were possible.

My friend Billy Haddock and thought about opening a bar called , "I ain't here"

We frequented the Pad in Waynesboro and almost every time the phone rang....

Some one would yell... I ain't here.....

Date With Intention.

You deserve more than just temporary affection—you deserve someone who sees forever in your eyes.

Someone who understands that love isn’t a game to be played, but a legacy to be built. Real love is an investment—of time, of heart, of soul.

When you're dating, look beyond the moment. Ask yourself: Can I see this person as the mother or father of my future children?

If you can’t imagine them walking down the aisle toward you, eyes filled with tears and hope—let them go.

If you can’t picture the two of you building a life together, baking cookies with your kids on Christmas Eve, or turning a house into a home—please, do them a favor... and walk away.

Because if marriage and a shared future aren’t on your heart, you’re holding someone else’s future in your hands.

Be honest. Be kind. Date with Intent

The Storm Chase May Lead Me to the NW Corner of TN... yall know what that means?

Boyett's on Reelfoot Lake

Reviewing Boyett's Dining Room on Reelftoot Lake in Tiptonville is hard to do. Why because there are only so many superlatives words.

The business has only had 3 owners in 102 years.

I've eaten there for 5 decades. Nothing really ever changes. When it works, why fix it.

They have Catfish, porkchops, ham, quail, chicken and even frog legs.

My go to is the Catfish steaks. It's been my favorite since I was a child.

Any if you remember the Catfish plate in Flatoods TN? They had the steaks

Let me tell you about my meals, 3 large Catfish steaks, cooked to perfection.
Farm raised, they nail it. Taste and texture

Arguably the best vinegar Slaw I've ever eaten. Tart with a taste of sweet.

Heavily onion rings... Yum Yum, melt in your mouth

White beans on point.
Great hushpuppies... mmm mmm Good

Great conversation with the folks sitting around us. Boyettes feels like home cooking, except you don't have to clean up the mess.

I don't like to number score restaurants but I'll tell you this.... There are only 3 places in Tennessee that I'll make a lengthy trip to have Catfish.

Boyett's, Hagy's and The Rivershack.

I don't know the Staggs' but sounds like the business took the same arch as my dad's store.

Small family owned grocery before the chain stores pusher the "little man" out.

They turned the grocery into a restaurant.

There are bigger, fancy, and more bougie places thar that sell those burgers with Mac & cheese, pimento cheese and bacon on them... but for my money, this is an absolute great burger.

You don't have to ask where is the beef. The 🍅 and pickles are cold.

They do something my dad preached. You get a taste of everything in each bite.

The menu is everything you need

The breakfast menu is full of southern classic, they even have chocolate gravy

I'm told, locals line up for the chocolate gravy

I'll rate this place a 9.1/10 on the restaurant scale

They are open 5:30a to 2p, Monday through Friday
