The Rib Ranch – Marietta, GA
I’ve driven by the Rib Ranch for at least twenty years – it’s in a really awkward spot on Canton Highway, just east of I-75 that I am fairly certain that you cannot make a left into when heading east. Or a right out of when you’re leaving. There was a write-up about them in […]
Bilbo’s Bar-B-Que – Bremen, GA
The third (and final) stop on the Bankhead Highway Barbecue Run was unscheduled (I was heading to Tallapoosa – guess I’ll save that for a part two) and involved a u-turn after catching a small sign saying “barbecue” out of the corner of my eye. On a hilltop, and not really visible from the […]
Jones Bar-B-Q – Temple, GA
Stop number two on the Bankhead Highway barbecue run was at Jones Bar-B-Q in Temple. According to Trip Advisor, Jones Bar-B-Q is the seventh best restaurant in Temple – it’s just ahead of Wendy’s, Subway and McDonald’s. The bar, in Temple, does not appear to be particularly high. There is another Jones Bar-B-Q: Jones Bar-B-Q […]
Evan’s Barbeque Company – Villa Rica, GA
Evans Barbecue Company is a fairly new entrant to the west Georgia barbecue scene. If I recall correctly, there used to be another ‘cue joint in the curve on Bankhead as you come into Villa Rica, in this exact same spot. The newness and difference from other West Georgia barbecue places stands out in […]
Big Bob Gibson’s Bar-B-Q – Decatur, AL (Photo Blog Post)
I’ve had Big Bob Gibson’s, in Decatur, on my list of places to go for years. They are the home of Alabama white sauce – We split a platter – chicken and pork with mac-n-cheese and baked beans. As I didn’t get around to posting this timely and I can’t remember all the details of […]
Bunyan’s Barbecue – Florence, AL (Photo Blog Post)
As I didn’t get around to posting this timely and I can’t remember all the details of the meal, I’m now posting this restaurant as a photo blog. Bunyan’s Barbecue.
Sprayberry’s Bar-B-Que – Newnan, GA
Growing up in the West Atlanta suburbs, we only had one barbecue place that I knew about – Wallace’s in Austell. It was the only one we ate at, and, as a non-driving child, I could only go where I was taken. But, occasionally we made a journey to Harold’s (which closed three+ years […]
Lovie’s Barbecue – Atlanta, GA
Several months back, on a routine trip through Buckhead, I saw the sign for a barbecue restaurant, Lovie’s BBQ, that I had never seen before. As you turn left off Lenox Road onto Piedmont, you pass by Chipotle and Naan Stop and the entrance sign for this place. It’s around back and down the hill, […]
Meat U Anywhere Barbecue – Grapevine, TX
Heading to the Texas state fair, we landed at DFW with a shopping destination on my beloved’s mind. I, on the other hand, was thinking of food. This should not be a shock to anyone that knows me. I opened the Texas Monthly Barbecue Finder (this is a great app – if you like barbecue […]
Twin Smokers BBQ – Atlanta, GA
Twin Smokers BBQ opened last December on Marietta Street, near the Georgia Aquarium, but we had not had the chance to try them out yet. Today, as we headed to the airport for an afternoon flight, we ended up downtown, looking for food. As we drove down Marietta Street towards West Midtown, I saw their […]
