"Tracing its roots to backyard hickory smoking started in 1925, this long-running barbecue house is credited with developing Alabama white sauce, a tart, spicy mayonnaise-based finish that defines its smoked chicken. The menu also features hickory-smoked brisket and turkey, plus in-house daily pies — notably a creamy, meringue-topped peanut butter pie that competes with the barbecue for attention." - Greg Baker
