The kind that makes me want to come back the very next day👅

It's closed now, but I remember Harold's Barbeque on McDonough Blvd.  An Atlanta original!  Now it seems like everything is the same.

Try Old Hickory House at Northlake.

Dawg Gone Good BBQ on W. Hancock. Total hole-in-the-wall with the BEST of everything. 2die4! I have been known to drive from Philly for it and have it written in my last requests that both their BBQ and Mac& Cheese be served @ my wake. And they are open until 3am Th, Fr & Sa.

Thanks for the info I appreciate it.... I've been eating healthy.... Dying to EAT lol

That question will create ore arguments i the culinary world than any other. Authentic to where- North Carolina, Kansas City, Texas, Korean?  Which traditions within each area?  Georgia does not have a BBQ legacy like these other areas but if you want great BB, there are many places- Fox Bothers, Heirloom BBQ (Korean influenced), Community Q......

I promise to make you laugh...you know everything is funnier with a Boston accent 😂

Fox Brothers in Little 5 area, the BOMB!

Williamson Bros Bar-B-Q is located in Marietta, Canton, and Douglasville. They've been around 23 years and have a selection of authentic sauces that taste awesome. Best Wishes -Abla

A little north of Atlanta is Bubba-Q's
 you will want to go back  
Try the Bubba Peños (Smoked bacon wrapped stuffed with pulled pork jalapeños)

There's a few around.  Originates in Tuscaloosa.  Very good

Located on North Highland just up from Manuels Tavern.

First-time visit I'm not real familiar with all these areas

I just looked them up and they definitely seem like they are worth a try. Thanks for your suggestion.

Another vote for Fox Bros.   It can get very busy for lunch; so go early or late.

Hey Lena. It is a great restaurant. I absolutely love authentic food. When you're in town soon, we can probably grab a bite. Best Wishes -Abla

Here is a link to the site. I haven't found any ribs as good as these anywhere

+1 for Fat Matt's on Piedmont. Harold's was good. A k in the day. There is a newer BBQ place on Roswell Road at Wieuca Road.

Best Brunswick Stew, period!

Grabbing a bite with you sounds lovely Abla! I'll reach out in the upcoming days.
