I guess this Georgian will weigh in. Georgia absolutely has it's own style of BBQ. It is very similar to NC style, with the sauce being more closely related to western NC with being a tomato vinegar concoction. Fox bros, listed above is just okay to me (2 brothers from Texas), Community Q in Decatur blows it's doors off. If you want a real taste of GA BBQ though, head to Dean's BBQ in Jonesboro. They smoke fresh hams, not butts and if you've never attempted to smoke a fresh ham you know that it's MUCH leaner than a butt and hard to get right. Get it right they do though! Their pulled pork sandwich has been voted the best in the state numerous times. They have been open since 1947 and it's easy to see why. Simple goodness.
Brunswick Stew is another GA BBQ tradition. You won't find that in many Southern states. Brunswick GA lays claim that it was created there as does Brunswick VA. Who knows? All I know is that I like it, lol. I actually make it myself, got a pot bubblin' right now as a matter of fact
One thing ALL Southern BBQ has in common, whether it be the Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, etc....PORK IS KING! Beef in Texas and Kansas, some places like Mutton, we in the South like our swine
Except Florida.......they're their own breed of folk, different than the rest of the entire country LOL!
