How Atlanta Does ‘Cue
Summer is here, and that means one thing; time for some smoked meat. There are a ton of BBQ spots in town claiming to be the best. But you can’t just slap some sugary sauce on a rib and call it ‘cue. No, sir. This is the south, and we take it seriously. So, if you’re driving around Atlanta and you feel the need for for some BBQ, these are the spots you need to put in your GPS.
Community Q
This Decatur BBQ spot is certainly doing something right. From beef ribs to pulled pork, they know their way around some meat. But the real star? The mac n’ cheese. In fact, these guys consider themselves a mac n’ cheese restaurant that serves BBQ
Heirloom Market BBQ
What do a Korean pop star and a good ol’ boy from Texas have in common? The love of great food! Specifically great BBQ. Like most truly great ‘cue shacks, Heirloom Market is unassuming from the road, But stop in and you’ll find a mix of traditional meats accented with Korean accents like kimchi.
Fox Bros. BBQ
It’s no secret, we at Atlanta Eats are huge fans of the Fox Brothers. And one taste of their brisket, you’ll know exactly why. Brontosaurus sized ribs bring the crowds and the fantastic patio and music keeps them there all night.
Greater Good BBQ
There’s only one thing you need to know about this new Buckhead BBQ spot; they have potato skins stuffed with pimento cheese and pulled pork. ‘Nuff said.
Bone Lick BBQ
It used to be that you could only get Mike LeSage’s famous pulled pork on Monday’s at P’Cheen in Inman Park. Well, lucky for Atlanta, he decided to spread his wings and fly over to the West Side. Now, you can get his pork, loaded tots and a side of ski ball any night of the week.
