Saw's BBQ is a barbecue restaurant located at 1008 Oxmoor Road in Edgewood.
It is owned by Mike Wilson, a North Carolina-born, Johnson & Wales trained chef who staffed the test kitchen for Cooking Light magazine. He began smoking meat and crafting sauces as a hobby and opened Saw's (an acronym for "Sorry Ass Wilson") in the former Broadway's BBQ location 2009.
The menu features Carolina style smoked pulled pork, chicken and ribs, served plain with bottles of three styles of sauce on the table. Sides include baked potatoes, beans, deviled eggs, macaroni and cheese, cole slaw and banana pudding.
In 2012, a second location of Saw's, headed by chef Brandon Cain, opened in the former Quick & Split Cafe at 215 41st Street South in Avondale.
