She said it was just up the road, and the food was fantastic. If she hadn’t told us where to go, we would have totally missed this gem of southern BBQ deliciousness. Nestled in a quiet forested area right off North Expy, we found this small slice of southern goodness. We walked in and were seated immediately, just as the sign promised. Our server, Margaret, greeted us and asked for our order. We told her that we were visiting, not that our accents (or lack thereof) didn’t give us away, and we wanted whatever she felt was their best dish. The Smoky Combo Feast with sweet tea x 2, that’ll do it. I’ve had plenty of BBQ in my adventures, but this was just insane. Every item in front of me was as delectable as the next. The ribs were like eating tender chunks of gold. Then, I asked Margaret if they had some spicy BBQ sauce. Sure enough, I went through two sides of it, dunking everything into those little bowls of liquid crack. The chicken was tender and juicy with a lightly crisped skin that cracked as you bit into it. The pulled pork was succulent and absorbed a majority of the spicy sauce, hence the refill! The brisket was so soft that I had to be careful while dipping it into the spicy sauce, so it wouldn’t lose its structural integrity on its way to my mouth.Īfter we demolished the meat plates, Margaret asked about dessert. I had the peach, and Minus had the blackberry both with ice cream in top. It was a hell of a way to finish off lunch, and, thankfully, we didn’t have anything going on the rest of the day. The next day, after the BBQ coma had subsided, we set out early for the track. Seeing as this was our first time to an Atlanta event, we wanted to make sure we knew where we were going and also take some time to enjoy the sheer massiveness of the Atlanta Speedway.Īs soon as we parked, cars started coming in. ![]() There were already quite a number of vehicles parked and multiple vendors already set up! Looks like we weren’t the only punctual people in attendance! We grabbed our gear and started walking to the main event area. Grip Royal and Koru Works appeared to be the heavy hitters here in Atlanta. New names to us, but they looked to be holding down the scene with some excellent builds. It’s not often that I see a widebody S2000, but here are two in some very lively colors. The last time I saw an S2000 of this calibre was at Wekfest last year, and that one was an all carbon fibre right hand drive one!Īnother rare sight was this Datsun 620 pickup. I loved the color and the Great Wave at Kanagawa hood detail. For the art geeks out there, this particular piece originated in early 19th century Japan by the artist Katsushika Hokusai. I’ve seen many reinterpretations of The Great Wave all over, but to see it here on the hood of a Datsun was refreshing.Īs I was moving along to the next row of vehicles, Minus radioed, “You gotta see this!” So, I changed direction and headed towards the other end of the parking lane. As I approached, I began to see what was so important. A ‘64 Impala will always have a special place in my heart. This bowling ball-colored one found its way in.
