A Legend in the Making right here in Lexington! 🐷🔥

We’ve always known B.E. Scott's BBQ was world-class, but now the secret is out! Zach Parker has been named one of the "5 Pitmasters Shaping the Future of Southern Barbecue" by Southern Living.

Zach is keeping the West Tennessee whole-hog tradition alive the "hard way," burning wood to coals and tending those cinder block pits with the same passion his father and B.E. Scott did before him. Whether you’re a local regular or planning your next road trip, come taste why Zach is officially a barbecue icon in the making.

📍 Visit him at B.E. Scott's BBQ or his newest venture, Jacks Creek BBQ, to experience a true taste of Tennessee heritage.
