resturant review

I had dinner at Fox Brothers BBQ last night with some friends.  It was good.  Really good.

I got the pulled pork and sliced brisket plate.  Both were tasty.  Both were not too heavily flavored, and when sauced, were excellent.  The sauce, BTW, is a perfect balance of sweet, sour and spicy.

For an appetizer, we got "the Tomminator":  A pile of tater tots covered in Brunswick Stew and melted cheese.  It was delicious.

But the whole reason for this post, is the sides.  I got collard greens and mac and cheese.  Honestly, both of them were probably the best I have ever had at any BBQ joint ever.  Seriously.  My only experience with the Brunswick stew was between tots and cheese, but it was also excellent.  Tom got the cole slaw and said it was also excellent.

I'm considering going back and ordering the "4 sides" vegetarian plate.  They're that good.

I have seen that place several times, but never been. How are their prices and the like? Do they have fried green tomatoes?

I've been a big fan of Fox Bros. since they started serving their grub at Smith's Old Bar a couple years ago. Their sides are EXCELLENT, and their BBQ is my favorite in Atlanta.
