Taylor'd BBQ - Review - Decatur - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"You don’t have to be a grillmaster to be into smoked meats, but Taylor’d BBQ in Decatur should definitely give you a greater appreciation. The chicken wings have crispy skin with a rich, smoky flavor that sinks deep. And the ribs, which are only served after 4pm, are cooked until they’re incredibly tender—the meat slides off the bone like it just disowned it for becoming a Saints fan. With loads of great sides (like collard greens that have a tangy apple cider vinegar-ish kick) and big wooden booths and ample dining space, this place works well for a casual lunch or dinner with a big, hungry crew. Food Rundown Ribs The seasoning seeps deep down into the meat, making them chew-on-the-bone good. Wings The smoked wings here are a top contender in the city’s neverending wing wars. They’re plump, crispy-skinned, and the smoky flavor sinks into the meat. Mac-and-Cheese This isn’t winning any Auntie Awards, but it’s creamy and cheesy, so it works just fine. Collard Greens There are countless opinions on how to cook collard greens. If you’re into savory with a little hint of sweet tang (from apple cider vinegar), you’ll love these. Chicken Tenders You get two huge tenders the size of a water bottle. They are super crispy, and you can see the seasoning, which penetrates the chicken. These are great for the eaters in your crew who may not be into smoked meats. Waffle Fries Get these. They’re crispy, salty, and the perfect partner to any meat you choose." - Jacinta Howard
