Chicken? Brisket??? Where's the pork? Where's the Brunswick stew? This doesn't look like Georgia. If you want ribs near Buckhead, go south on Piedmont to just past Cheshire Bridge Road to Fat Matt's.

I thought I was the only one that heard of that place! I used to go to Atlanta a few times a year, and always had a visit to Feeders. The owner/chef gave me a tour of his kitchen. He is actually a New Yorker who is a trained gourmet chef (New York City!). He spent quite a bit of time working some of the finer restaurants in Palm Springs. Then he discovered BBQ and habanero chilies. The rest was history. He builds his own smokers. The main smoker in his kitchen was built from the chassis of a car. The smaller one out back was made from a propane tank. The smoke comes from hickory logs which must be dry as bone, then placed vertically in a barrel full of water. The wood isn't ready until it sinks (I think he said it would take a couple of weeks). The smokers have thermostatically controlled gas flames where the food is, and separate chambers where the wood smolders. He made a suggestion I never tried, but I'll pass along. If you ever find an old four drawer file cabinet at a garage sale, buy it. Build your fire in the bottom drawer, and use the rest for food. I haven't been back there for over a year. I'm glad to hear he's still smokin'! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Tony Abo [email removed]
