Executive chef John Umberger has barbecue figured out. Start with big, thinly sliced pickles fried hot and crisp, served with a mildly spicy mayonnaise "pink sauce" for dipping. We recommend the pulled pork with a proper North Carolina sauce and the ribs---either baby-backs or spare ribs---with a dry Memphis-style rub. Tasty sides include rich, fluffy corn pudding, an unusual choice. Ask for the house-made pepper vinegar to adorn the good, if slightly salty, collard greens. Smoked chicken comes with a house-made white sauce, with just enough tang to it to keep it from becoming cloying, while smoked turkey breast pairs with a sweet, thick Kansas City-style barbecue sauce. For dessert, the chef makes a variety of treats, such as fresh fruit crisps. Bypass the underwhelming wine list and go with any of the fine beers, such as local brew Sweetwater. Also located at 5063 Post Rd., Family Festival shopping center, Cumming, 770-781-8474.
