"We love our ribs, so we're happy that ATL will add another BBQ spot to its roster this year. Popular South Carolina BBQ joint, Lewis Barbecue is set to open at Ansley Mall in Piedmont Heights. Expect brisket along with pork spare ribs, sausages, pulled pork, and turkey. And yes, vegetarians, we hear they are cooking up something for you, too." - jacinta howard, juli horsford
"Pitmaster John Lewis brought brisket perfection to Charleston by way of Austin, and it’s been a hit since day one. Don’t miss the fatty brisket, green chili corn pudding, or the super-moist turkey slices. Bring friends to help with the leftovers. If the line is long, grab a margarita from the bar first." - Erin Perkins

"Pitmaster John Lewis brought the best-ever brisket to Charleston by way of Austin, and it’s been a hit since day one. The airy dining room is unlike any other barbecue space — it’s clean and modern with several nods to Texas and Mexico, including an 8-foot longhorn skull mounted on the wall and imported Oaxacan tile on the service counter. Some of the most popular dishes include the hot guts (sausage links), fatty brisket, green chili corn pudding, and ultra-moist turkey slices. Best for: Indulging in fatty brisket and a cold margarita at an outdoor picnic table when the weather is nice." - Erin Perkins
"A little off the beaten path of the downtown corridor, Lewis Barbecue is worth the added travel time. Renowned Austin pit master John Lewis steers the food program, and the menu is simple but abundant—large slabs of melt-in-your-mouth brisket, smoked sausages, and an array of sides, like corn pudding and tangy coleslaw. Here, it's all about the tray, and once you go through the line, chances are you will have one stacked with hedonistic glory. One of the best parts of the experience is the staff, who slice and portion your meats on the plate. They're quick to offer a sample, suggestion, or lay "just one more slice" on your tray before you leave their station. It feels fun, like a friendly picnic for a meat-loving club." - Stephanie Burt
