Arkansas Food Hall of Fame Committee member Rex Nelson, shared some of his favorite tastes in Arkansas in his recent column 'Along the Lower White' for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. In it, he featured two Arkansas Food Hall of Fame winners: Craig\u0027s BBQ and Murry\u0027s Restaurant. He said, 'When visiting my grandparents at Des Arc as a boy, we often would go to DeValls Bluff to eat pork barbecue at Craig\u0027s or fried catfish at Murry\u0027s. Both of the Black-owned restaurants have since been inducted into the Arkansas Food Hall of Fame. Craig\u0027s continues to operate at its original location. Murry\u0027s has since moved west on U.S. 70 to a spot between Hazen and Carlisle. I\u0027m biased since I grew up on their offerings, but I still say Craig\u0027s has my favorite barbecue in the state and Murry\u0027s fries my favorite catfish.' Do you have a favorite that deserves to win? Nominate them today! Click here.
