Where to preorder Thanksgiving meals in Memphis, from turkeys to sides

Thanksgiving is a time for gratitude, family, college football, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and how one very large turkey and all the fixings can create an unmitigated mess in your kitchen. That’s why, this year, you can leave the basting, baking, chopping and cleanup to the professionals. From perfectly roasted Thanksgiving birds and mouthwatering, savory sides to decadent desserts that practically demand seconds (and maybe even thirds), plenty of local restaurants are ready to make the holiday a little easier and a lot less stressful. So loosen up the apron strings and put away the dish towels. Here's a bountiful feast of local spots serving up holiday premade meals to go worth giving thanks for — especially because you don’t have to battle crowded grocery stores, spend days in the kitchen or face a mountain of dirty dishes afterward.

Best Memphis-style BBQ restaurants? These 10 made a national ranking

Memphis barbecue has long been a source of hometown pride, but a recent national ranking gives local barbecue lovers another reason to celebrate. The USA TODAY 10BEST Readers’ Choice Awards recently named the Top 10 restaurants for Memphis-style barbecue in the United States, and the Mid-South made quite an impression. Nine of the 10 restaurants on the list are located in the Memphis area, while the lone exception is Pappy's Smokehouse in St. Louis. MEMPHIS BARBECUE HISTORY: The story behind Memphis BBQ and how it conquered the world The rankings, announced on Oct. 28, were determined through nominations from a panel of experts followed by reader voting.

Taking the No. 1 spot is Marlowe's Ribs & Restaurant , a Memphis favorite since 1974. Known for its hearty ribs, beef brisket, Elvis memorabilia, and signature fleet of pink limousines, Marlowe's offers a barbecue experience that is as memorable as its food. Just outside the top spot, Germantown Commissary claimed No. 2. Originally a country store, the restaurant has been serving barbecue since 1981 and is particularly well
