Jame's P.'s review says it adequately. We're only in town a few times a year; usually at Thanksgiving. When our growing clan discovered that Trolinger's would cook the turkey and have it wrapped and ready to go Thanksgiving morning....Hallelujah! What a time and space saver and...a very moist and succulent bird! Also, love the country style salted hams hanging out for sale. A quaint, but country-cool place to go! read more

Very Good! And very affordable for under 2.00 you can get a really great bbq sandwich and the sauces have very good flavor.

Love their food and meat quality! We love getting their bbq to take home to enjoy and we also like to get their meat for roast steaks. Very good all around! read more

This is a really nice meat shop and they also have really a really good bbq sandwich. I tried bbq nachos but they were not the best I have ever had. read more

the ribs were good I wish they had more vegetables. 6 dry rub ribs , roll, potato salad, baked beans, and Cole slaw. All for 5.99! Also they have fried pies up front where you pay. read more

Love YELP! Reading all the reviews helped us decide on this place. A little mom & pop store / gas station who knew. The BBQ plate = coleslaw, baked beans, potato salad and a BBQ sandwich for a great price. All homemade and taste great. They make their own BBQ sauce and the more you use the hotter it gets. If you get the chance stop in read more

Wow! Sometimes you have to sacrifice quality for quantity, but not this time. I'd been hearing about this place for some time, but as I live two counties and more than an hour's travel away, I had never visited. I found myself in Paris on business today, so decided to give it a try. I ordered the BBQ plate and, as described in other reviews, received a whopping serving of pork piled on a mound of potato salad. A side order each of cole slaw and baked beans, plus a smallish bread roll. Could not even come close to eating it all. The pork was tender and moist without being mushy, the potato salad was very good, the cole slaw was okay (I'm not a big fan a mayo-based slaw) and the beans were a little runny but had a good flavor. The store has a good selection of beers and BBQ sauces/marinades, plus a few unexpected items. Hot Giardiniera and Chicago-style pickle relish. The travel distance makes it prohibitive to make a special trip just to eat some 'Q, but the next time I am in the area, I plan to stop in again. read more

I've been eating for 20 minutes, and there's still an entire plate of food left. Mercy! The portions are ridiculous, but the good was all good. read more

If you like Carolina pork BBQ this is the spot. Vinegar based house sauce is called 'devil's dew' in Carolina and is also available there in sizes up to a gallon (mix with honey or molasses to dip meat before grilling). There's also a butcher shop where you can get custom cuts of top quality meats at better prices than Walmart, etc .. they've been around since 1917, so they're doing things right. read more

Really Spartan dining area but down-home friendliness is on display. Very tasty pulled pork sandwiches very inexpensive and a bargain by any standard. Big on taste small on price. Go back to the counter order what you want sit down and eat it and when you leave stop by the cash register and tell them what you had. How much more country can you get than that? read more

Great place love fresh meat not like glued meats from like Walmart and places that bring meat in and repack it

Get in there and get yourself a ridiculous amount of food on a plate lunch. $5 for a chicken or BBQ plate or $6 for the rib plate. Way more food than the average person could or at least should eat. The ribs were better than the BBQ plate. Both were excellent. The ribs were big and juicy. The plate comes with baked beans, slaw, potato salad, and a roll with a heaping portion of meat on top. The Trolinger's Original BBQ sauce is quite spicy, a little runny, and very vinegar flavored. It's good. I haven't tried the chicken plate. BBQ plate has a large handful of pulled pork in leu of ribs. If you happen to land in Paris you'd be a fool not to grab a bite here. This is the only place I've ever been where you get your food on the honor system. The place is a butcher shop/BBQ restaurant/convenience store/gas station. Get your plate in the back, grab any drink from the store, sit down and eat, and tell them what you had on your way out the door where you pay. read more

Trolinger's - From outside. - Grocery Near Me - Paris, Tennessee

Every time I'm down visiting my Grandma, we always go here for pork sandwiches with their signature sauce. You get a combo of pork, sauce, sides, and buns that feeds the whole family! My fiancé buys a bottle of their sauce to being back up north, and his family loves it! There's a reason why everyone in Paris knows this store! read more

Stopped there last weekend. Had the rib-plate, was surprised when I saw it on the menu board for only $6. There is a reason it is only $6. I think they first dried the ribs then boiled them. The sauce was tasty, really different, nice and peppery. No beef or sausage on the menu, just pork. The ebans were good, had some of the pulled pork mixed in with them. Potato salad and slaw were average (better then the ribs). Was there with about a half dozen other guys, some had the pulled pork some had the ribs, we all agreed we had better. read more

I had the pleasure of eating here last weekend with some friends and was pleasantly surprised at the food and our experience. The service was quick and the atmosphere is casual and inviting. Their barbecue sauce has a bit of heat to it and really elevates the barbecue. The prices are low and the servings are huge. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone living in, or driving through, the Paris area. read more

Stopped for gas but found much more...impressive buyer stocking these shelves for this little town. Great choices and friendly people.

I love Trollinger's! I haven't been to Paris in a long time, but believe it or not, my Aunt mails me packages of pulled pork every now and then! I just got 6 gallon-sized feeezer bags filled with pulled pork. She buys it, packs and freezes it, and then ships it overnight with ice packs. I am like a little kid on Christmas when I get a box from her! This time there was BBQ, sauce, and some of her homemade hot-pepper relish. YUM! No one makes pulled pork like Trollinger's. read more

Wonderful barbecue, sides, chicken, ribs, and fried pies! I'm sure everything else is good, too. Love this place so much and it's very affordable. They have a little bit of everything too. I look forward to trying their fresh meats. read more

Holy cow--or pig in this case! Huge portions, cheap prices and the nicest staff in the south. We lucked into this place driving from Land Between the Lakes to Reelfoot Lake, thanks to a Yelp review. Had fun decor including an old phone booth. They also have a wonderful deli counter so we picked up some ham to go, not that we will be able to eat again any time soon! read more

Great TN BBQ in a unique setting; Meat market, convienance store, restaurant combo.

Barbecue plate was ok. Service was excellent but this place is a little overrated. Place has a good selection of beers and meats.

This an awesome experience and has a hometown feel. You can dine in or take out. Also they have a fresh meat you can get cut to perfection. read more

Great BBQ, sliced meats, cheeses, and hand cut steaks.

If you're looking for fresh meat a great prices, this is the place... They even do custom cuts.

My husband and I have eaten the bbq & all the fixings inside the store. It was great ! The last couple times we have ordered the b.b.q. & all the fixings we took it home. Both times the B.B.Q. has been so dry !!!!! It feels tender until you put it in your mouth. You could hardly chew it! I'm a Big B.B.Q fan and I care more about the meat than the other items! The food is good but we could not chew the meat, too dry! Such a disappointment. Their cooking it to long and or its drying out in the pan? Please do better! read more

This was a great place. We got pulled pork sandwiches for lunch and it was great. We also got bone in rib eye steaks and center cut pork chops to take home. Cooked the steaks the same day and they were full of flavor, the pork chops were great also. It's nice to see your meat cut in front of you.We need more places like this. read more

The BBQ is awesome. I have family in Paris Landing and we make Trolinger's a must stop every trip. Love the hot sauce ! Pay on your honor like an old Detroit neighbor hood bar. People are very friendly ( even to Yankees ). But the pulled pork is the star here. If your in the area it's well worth the time. read more

Great BBQ, huge portions, and low prices. Has a deli as well that will slice the meat for your sandwich on the spot!!!

I love to buy the family packs of pulled pork from Trolinger's. Their pork is good, but their sides are amazing! I would recommend to anyone! read more

Love this place! The only butcher in the tri-county area that I have been able to find in 20 years. Just wish the meat selection was bigger n more "international". The all-beef hot dogs are KILLER on the grill! They also sell Dotta Sue's no bake oatmeal cookies, both varieties, and they are always fresh. The employees are very friendly and helpful. read more

I'm recently moved to Paris from California and was hoping my grocery shopping and eating out options would reorient themselves away from the prepackaged, greasy industrial food so common in LA to a more home style straight from the fat of the land type experience. We'll it's been a disappointing transition until I was taken by a friend for lunch to Trolinger's. First, their pricing is amazing, secondly so is their food. They have a well stocked cold slice selection and their meat counter would give anything anywhere a run for the money. Don't let the gas pumps out front make you thing this is only a eat and run type place. There is much to eat and see in this unpretentious Paris treasure. read more

This is my go-to spot in Paris. Great BBQ and awesome breakfast sandwiches. The prices are nothin short of amazing (I honestly wonder how they can make a profit sometimes). Other than their BBQ and breakfasts, it is also a full service butcher. read more

I have lived in Latham Tn since 1982 and we go to the lake every year VERY OFTEN I worked in paris for 10 plus years but it wasnt until last fall that i ate bbq from trolingers. OMG what a mistake. i have been making thinking it was just another gas station trying to sell food. THEIR BBQ IS AMAZING AND THERE SAUCE OUT OF THIS WORLD. Their pricing is unbelievable too. I have averaged once a month getting a shoulder from them ever since (they actually pull it off bone for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) what more could yo ask for . if you even remotely like bbq (theirs is the only pork i eat don't even eat it when my husband would cook it .)you MUST GIVE THEM A TRY. read more
