I think Homeland Security should get involved now. That is just beyond wrong.

Just got back from downing a full rack of ribs and a half chicken order at Arthur Bryant's. Pure gluttony.......and I loved every minute of it.

Now I just have to figure out how I'm going to sleep on my back tonight.

That's odd.. Whenever he goes out in DC he hangs out and talks to the other customers for at least a "hello, how are you?"

Maddy's is ok at best. Loud, bad music, ok food. If you go to a Braves game, Harold's is the shit, but not sure what the hours are. My wife will pretty much only go to Fox Bros now, especially with Fat Tire on tap and those huge Mac and Cheese servings. Get yourself some to go before a Braves game (you can hop right on Moreland to 20 and sneak up behind the park).

There are 2 new places near me, one called Community BBQ (near Emory) and the other one is in the Highlands but I forget the name.

Lemme know how Community BBQ is if you go. It looks interesting. And we must live pretty close (I'm right outside the city limits of Decatur, close to the border with Avondale Estates) .

Nothing wrong with some apple in the slaw. Especially with pork. Haven't you ever heard of apple sauce on pork chops, or apple cider based BBQ sauces and finishing sauces...?

The best BBQ I've ever had was up here in Dayton, OH at a place called City BBQ. I always get the brisket, which is phenomenal. They have about 5-6 different sauces on the table that you can use. They have the eastern Carolina vinegar sauce, the Carolina mustard sauce, a sweet BBQ sauce, and a more firey sauce. They have another one but I can't remember what it is. I highly recommend this place if you are in the Ohio area.

I'm the opposite direction, near Toco Hills (not too far from the benevolent dictator's old stomping grounds of Tucker). I like the Indian place next to Community, but I may give it a try in the next week or two.

If you can't travel too far, Smokehouse BBQ has a location at Zona Rosa, which is a couple miles from the airport. Really good pork meats and some very good baked beans. If you want the good stuff and don't mind company, I'd be happy to take you downtown for some Gates or Arthur Bryants. I'm off on Thursday night and live about 10 minutes from the airport.

Thanks for the offer. I'm going to need to see what the agenda is for the conference. I know they feed us right there during the day but I'm not sure what the deal is going to be at night.

I'm sure we could get a couple of the other FOFC locals to tag along. You never have to bend the arm of a KC resident to get them to go out for BBQ.

You'll just have a hard time getting us all to meet at the same place

I do agree that the best spot in the Airport area is probably Smokehouse.

I'll also endorse Smokehouse as best near the airport BBQ, even if that location is not as good as the original. I'd suggest starting with corn nugget appetizer and getting a mixed platter, something like pork and burnt ends. The Crispy is the best sandwich, and make sure you get beans.

LOL. KC people are so friendly they'll order for you before you get to town to ensure you get the best food.

With that said, I endorse this selection.

Schedule was hectic but I did manage to hit up Smokehouse and it was excellent. I am not much of a baked beans guy but those were fantastic. Pork spare ribs was my main course and I ate so much I only had room for one more beer.

I also quite enjoyed Boulevard Wheat beer. Tried a few but liked the Wheat the best.

If I make it back To KC I will bump this thread again and maybe give a little more notice so we can set something up. Thanks for the Smokehouse suggestion though. The guy I am with also loved it.

Yeah, Boulevard Wheat is a great beer. Really become a staple in the community.

Glad you liked the pork and beans. Good stuff.

Definitely bump the thread next time. I talked with a few of the FOFC guys in the area and they're interested in a meet-up.

Hmm, mine was fine. Waiter was friendly, service was prompt, some dude (probably the manager) checked up to make sure everything was all right, and the waiter arranged me a cab ride out of there.

It wasn't super busy so that probably helped.

We hit Arthur Bryant's last night before the storm rolled in. Sausage, burnt ends, ham, rack of ribs, and beef brisket along with three plates of fries.

Best BBQ I've had in a while is at Whole Hog in Little Rock. Six different sauces, all of them excellent. It may be hearsay in Texas, I definitely prefer pulled pork and ribs to brisket.

Interesting that this thread was bumped and I went back to check my earlier comments. I've done a complete 180 on Fat Matt's. I must've just had a bad experience before, but now they are my favorite BBQ place by far.

There was another Atlanta location I used to frequent called KC Pit BBQ and they were very good when they were a hole in the wall restaurant. Then they moved to a bigger location and completely changed the atmosphere with fancy tablecloths, waiters with ties (at a BBQ restaurant!?), and increased prices. The owners were caught money laundering and drug trafficking and the location is now closed.

Also, Maddy's sadly closed down. A Fox Bros was supposed to move into that location, but that deal fell through for some reason.

Fat Matt's is here in the Atlanta area? I'll have to try it out. I was pissed when Fox Bros decided not to take over Maddy's location. The current location is a bit out of the way for me, and the Maddy's spot would've worked out well. Plus, they were going to put beef ribs on the menu as a regular item and I was looking forward to that. And it'd be great to have a place with fried ribs closer.

Out here in Marietta where I work, there's Heirloom Market BBQ. It's a small place but very good food. If you're out here sometime, it's worth a stop.

Unfortunately, they closed down the best one around me in Greenville, Smokin' Stokes. Never found out why, but I was quite sad.

Lil Pigs proper in Mauldin is probably the best of the Greenville area shops, but they tend to put far too much sauce. When its sauced good, you get a lot of the smoky flavor, but otherwise it just overpowers it.

Tuffy Stone (of Pitmasters fame) is opening a place 5 minutes from my home.

He has a place 25 minutes away and we eat there once or twice a month, so I'm expecting weekly visits soon.

There are two pretty god places I know not far away.
1 is bull hawgs in Pauline . Actually I haven't eaten there since they built the nice new building and moved out f the convenience store side shop, but ve heard the food hasnt changed.

The second is pig out at the corner of John Dodd rd and new cut rd in Spartanburg. This place doesn't look like anything but has amazing que. they even have a daily capacity limit at lunch where after which they will shut down the cash register...because lunch hour can run 3 hours during the week. I haven't been there much lately as ive been trying to trim some weight...and they are good for a +5lb day for me.

No doubt.. I don't see Franklin bbq anywhere on that list. I haven't personally been to Franklin.. but I've read many top 10's on bbq and they are almost always on there.

I was thinking about a vacation in Austin just so we can eat there.

I find that hard to believe (not top 3?) but whatever. Jack Stack was #1 in my book but it's also a bit different as it's more upscale than your usual BBQ joint (I only went to the one near Union Station so maybe other ones are different). But this is one of those religious wars that won't find a clear winner.

Then again, any list that starts with a place in NYC as #1 is just wrong.

SI

Most would put Oklahoma Joe's (even if it it owned by beakers), Arthur Bryant's, Gates, or Smoke Stack in front of Jack Stack. There's no way it's better than all four of those places.
