Tennessean- "Leave them on the table"

What: American Deli
Where: Corner of Central and Inskip-Knoxville TN
What: Tits in my face

Let me tell you about this great, one-man show, fresh pulled pork food stop. A good buddy for work came back after lunch break with this delicious spread of food and when I asked him about it he said "there's more where that came from" Holy shit he wasn't kidding. So in the midst of a typical hungover saturday myself and a few others made the trek to see if the doors were open. They were open, but the attitude of the gentlemen inside was abrasive. But when we noticed that this one guy took orders/pulled the pork/cooked the pies/whipped up the potatoes/.... we were gracious that he graced us with his magic. This place is off the chizz-ain. (by the way that terminology would not be accepted)

What to get: BBQ Pork Plate (Lg)
What I wish I had done: not paid with a credit card--(dollar charge)

I used to say that knoxville was shit for BBQ...I was wrong...this place is very good...memphis should be getting worried. But honestly this guy is keeping to himself. When we said "hey man this food was great" he responded "well thats good to hear"....I don't think he needs compliments he knows his greatness in southern cooking.
