Try Spiced Right Barbecue.  It's at 5364 Lawrenceville Highway NW Lilburn Georgia.  I ate there twice last year when visiting some inlaws. the food is unbelievably good and amazingly affordable (all you can eat). We even brought some bottles of sauce back on the plane (that's where I got the address from).  Until I'd eaten there, I never understood the big deal about BBQ.  now it's almost worth the humidity for a meal.

You gotta go to Fresh Aire BBQ in Jackson, GA...S of Atlanta...if memory serves (haven't lived there in over 10 years) it is right at 2 hours out of town, certainly no more.

It's on the main US hwy thru town (30?), west side of the road.

Typical BBQ shack with a patio with picnic tables for eating.  I lived in the southeast (traveled 6 states) for 5 years and Fresh Aire had the best pork sandwiches I encountered anywhere, North Carolina included.

Enjoy, and let us know where you go!
