The Scene
Between the pulled pork shoulder, the beef brisket and the barbecue chicken, this local favorite won't leave anyone hungry (except for vegetarians). We suggest you take advantage of the sizeable booths, invite along some friends and pick from each other's plates.

The Food
Corky's rhymes with the name of a certain cartoon pig whose succulent meat is the menu's foundation. The ribs linger in that spectacular culinary zone, a true feat of physics, where the strips sit on the bone until the slightest touch of one's fork--or fingers--separates them for easy chewing. After a full feast at Corky's you won't have room for sweets, so the restaurant goes out of its way to tempt you: The ice cream scoops are double-sized, the pecan pie is rich with Karo syrup, and the cobbler is thick with apple.
