Sticky Fingers, Barbecue restaurant in Chattanooga, US.
Sticky Fingers is a barbecue restaurant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where smoked and grilled meats are served alongside house-made sauces. The menu covers brisket, ribs, pulled pork, and chicken, all prepared using traditional smoking methods in a casual dining room.
Sticky Fingers was founded drawing on Carolina barbecue traditions, with the goal of bringing Southern cooking to Chattanooga. Over time, the restaurant grew into a small regional chain while keeping its original focus on smoked meats and house sauces.
The menu at Sticky Fingers reflects several Southern barbecue traditions side by side, which makes the differences between regional styles easy to spot. The sauces served with each dish are a direct reference to specific regional recipes from across the American South.
The restaurant works well for both solo visitors and groups, with seating at tables in a casual setting. Lunchtime and early evening tend to be the busiest periods, so going a bit earlier or later makes the experience smoother.
Each plate comes with a selection of house-made sauces representing different Southern styles, placed on the side so you can try them one at a time. This makes it possible to notice how a mustard-based Carolina sauce and a sweeter Tennessee-style sauce behave differently with the same cut of meat.
