Restaurant - Melvin Bessinger's Barb-B-Que Restaurants have been a South Carolina Landmark since 1939. We have become famous for the best St. Louis Style Pork Ribs, Chicken and "All Ham" Bar-B-Que in the South. But don’t take our word for it, come on down and experience the flavor. We have 2 locations, Mt Pleasant and James Island.

Catering - You can have your BBQ delivered to you with our professional Charleston BBQ catering service. Whether you are having a company picnic, family reunion, tailgating party, corporate event, black-tie affair, wedding or rehearsal dinner, or just really want some good home country cooking delivered to your doorsteps, our BBQ catering is at your service. No event is too big or too small.

Online Store - After you've savored the last bite, we hope you'll agree that all the work we put into preparing your
