The 11 Hottest New Restaurants Around Atlanta, May 2024
"Backed by pitmasters Robert Owens and Secret Pint BBQ owner Bryan Hull, and located in what was the Smyrna location of Grand Champion BBQ, Owens and Hull merges Texas- and Carolina-style barbecue smoked over Georgia oak on the menu. And the restaurant is already generating serious buzz amongst barbecue enthusiasts in Atlanta. Owens and Hull doesn’t feature a set menu of barbecue standards, but rather a specific menu served each day. This includes a smoked burger topped with White Castle onions and American cheese on Thursdays, reserving sliced brisket and turkey for service on Fridays and Saturdays, and regularly serving the popular sausages from Secret Pint’s pop-ups (Think sausages stuffed cheddar cheese and jalapenos or roasted poblano peppers and Oaxaca cheese.) Only open Thursday through Sunday, expect weekly specials, too, and a rotating selection of side dishes." - Eater Staff, Henna Bakshi
