O.B.’s BBQ – McDonough, GA

O.B.’s BBQ – McDonough, GA

OBs1 This week, I traveled down to McDonough, GA to have my bike serviced by the fine folks at Cycle Nation, where I’ve purchased my last two bikes. It so happens that O.B.’s is two doors down from Cycle Nation, so it was logical that we try it.

Very nice people greeted us at the door and we followed our pleasant waitress to our table. The ambience is very southern country, from the decorations on the wall to the large fireplace in the center. Quite rustic, in a sanitized sort of way.

Our massive sweet tea arrived and was very tasty. Almost a 5. I ordered the usual pork sandwich and stew, Jennifer having baked beans and slaw with hers. Avoid the slaw, it’s not their best thing. The meat was nicely smoked and flavorful, although the sauces were a bit generic. Jennifer found her beans a bit on the generic side as well. I could really say the same for the stew. All of it is good. No surprises, no regrets. Nothing made us say “wow”, but overall, O.B.’s is a pretty good place to have some barbecue..

  1. Tommy,

    The best BBQ in Lexington, NC is called Lexington BBQ. Wayne Monk is the founder and learned the art from C. Warner Stamey. Stamey is credited with being the single largest promoter of Lexington style BBQ.

    If you are in Greensboro then you should visit Stamey's BBQ which is where C. Warner Stamey built his first restuarant in 1953. They opened a 2nd location in Greensboro later.

  2. Both of those are on the list. We are based out of Atlanta, so most of our reviews will be within riding distance of here. There are so many, I don't think we'll ever hit them all, but we're gonna try!

    We'll get out to NC again soon and will definitely hit those when we are there.
