Bar-B-Cutie – Murfreesboro, TN
When you drive by a place and see the cowgirl on this sign, how can you not stop? That was the dilemma I was faced with. I had seen another location on Friday afternoon and had then driven by this one on the way to Fat Mo’s. (Whenever I see a tag line like that […]
Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint – Nolensville, TN
I first heard about Martin’s Bar-Que Joint in an article in Garden & Gun Magazine titled “100 Southern Foods You Absolutely, Positively, Must Try Before You Die”. The author “didn’t care for the slur” in their “Redneck Taco”, but loved the sandwich. I had intended to go there on an earlier trip back from Nashville, […]
Mot’s Bar-B-Que – Augusta, GA
As a bit of general advice, the worst time in the world to go on a barbecue hunt is the week of the 4th of July. Not thinking that through completely, as we were heading over to Charleston for a long weekend, I had a couple of places in mind to try along the way. […]
Grand Champion BBQ – Roswell, GA
I’d been wanting to try Grand Champion BBQ, since I saw them listed in Atlanta Magazine’s May, 2013 barbecue issue. When we were discussing lunch today, I was reminded, as was my dearest, of last year’s 4th of July rib debacle where we struck out in 4 places (The Old Brick Pit, Heirloom Market, Thompson […]
Sweet Auburn Curb Market – Atlanta, GA
After first hearing about Bell Street Burritos in Atlanta Magazine (back in the March, 2012 “Cheap Eats” edition), I’ve been meaning to get by there. They had opened a location on Howell Mill, which I believed would surely be easier to get to than the Sweet Auburn Curb Market. But it closed without me ever […]
Fat Matt’s Rib Shack – Atlanta, GA
I first discovered Fat Matt’s Rib Shack seven or eight years ago when someone suggested that I go there and hear this blues band. Now I end up there about once every five or six weeks. Somehow, I’ve failed to blog about it. This entry actually comprises two visits (so that I can cover more […]
Wyatt’s Country Bar-B-Que – Atlanta, GA
Weekend before last, when we were at Ann’s Snack Bar, as we were leaving I saw Wyatt’s Country Bar-B-Que across the street (and up the block). I had never noticed it before and determined to give it a try in the near future. Tonight, when I was stuck in ridiculous, rain-induced and construction-complicated traffic, I […]
S’more BBQ – Douglasville, GA
On the site of a former Smokey Bones, S’more BBQ opened some time last year over by Arbor Place Mall. We had driven by there several times but never had the occasion to stop. Today, when we had no other place to be and needed to grab a quick bite, we pulled in. If I […]
Mr. D’s Hickory Smoked Barbeque With Soul – Austell, GA
Mr. D’s Hickory Smoked Barbecue With Soul was not my original dinner destination. I was originally headed to the Sweetwater Inn, a place that I had driven by for the past thirty-two years and yet had never stopped. I was determined to not let another birthday pass without knocking this one off my list. The […]
Happy Hawg Barbecue – Hiram, GA
If you’re one of my three regular readers, you may think that the building above looks familiar – you’d be correct (check out this entry). As we drove by a couple of weeks ago, I noticed that the name had changed. Again. I had eaten there in at least three previous iterations, but when I […]
