And, yet, Athens doesn't have a go-to bbq place (at least, not that I've found without having to drive out of town).

Hit up Rooters on Whitehall - they're only open Thursday-Sunday. Get the large pulled pork sammich with the habanero sauce. You will thank me.

I'll give you that. There should be good BBQ that isnt 15-20 min outside of town

Man, used to be some of the best spots to eat were Springhouse and Walters BBQ ....
The other thing is how can a college town be a foodie town? Athens was built on cheap food, cheap beer, and cheap drugs...

I've been on a mean rib tear the past month or so. Got anywhere for that?

Not a fan of Butt hutt?
Posted on 3/13/14 at 12:20 pm to Dawg in Beaumont
Butt Hutt isn't bad by any means. Just not the earth shattering bbq joint you'd think Athens would have.

True, it is good but Athens could have a better one in town. Pulaski Heights is also solid IMO, but I know the hipster vibe may turn some off.

Rooters also does great ribs 
Posted on 3/13/14 at 2:15 pm to Dawg in Beaumont
Have been meaning to try Pulaski Heights but the overly-artsy vibe has been keeping me at bay. I'll get around to it eventually.

I enjoyed it, like you said with Butt-Hutt, it's nothing earth-shattering. I'd probably rate Butt-Hutt slightly better.
Posted on 3/13/14 at 2:53 pm to tylerdurden24
butt hut is so damn average. i just get shane's when i want BBQ now for convenience. ive tried a lot of places, too. i think harry's pig shop might have been my favorite. maybe kelly's if that counts, which i say it doesnt since it's jamaican.

Im going to make some cheap shitty bbq this weekend and take numerous shortcuts and it will still be the best bbq in athens
