Lil Choo Choo Barbecue: The Best Barbecue In Nashville

September 27, 2020January 14, 2020 by Brad

Nashville’s complete barbecue experience.

Located near Nashville International Airport at the corner of Murfreesboro Pike and Donelson Pike

What was Nashville’s most unique mobile food unit, is now a full-service restaurant. After years of providing delicious BBQ to the streets of Nashville, we have finally laid roots with a brick and mortar location. Decades of authentic barbecue tradition brought to you with smoked meats and a succulent selection of sides. All of our food and sauces are made from scratch and our meats are cooked to smoky perfection.

BBQ Food Train

A lot of joints claim to have the “best barbecue” – We say, let the meat do the talkin’… You can find our choo-choo food train at various festivals/events around town or parked in front of our brand new restaurant location!

WE DO TO-GO AND CATERING

PLEASE CALL (615) 739-5024

SMOKE ‘EM IF YOU GOT ‘EM

Our pit-master, Michael “Fish” Powell began smoking meats on his father’s charcoal grill as a teenager. Using coals for the heat and hickory branches for the smoke, he learned the fine craft of authentic barbecue. Since then, he spent the last 30 years developing world class recipes to compliment his succulent smoked meats. Everything you eat from Lil’ Choo Choo BBQ is made from scratch. One taste and you will experience the passion and experience of one who truly loves barbecue. Come give Lil’ Choo Choo BBQ a try and see what you have been missing, but please “let the meat do the talkin”…
