There are quite a few fire barbecue restaurants in Atlanta that all specialize in some of the same specialties. It’s incredibly refreshing when you find one that has a fresh take.
I recently visited Wood’s Chapel BBQ in Summerhill for some tasty barbecue. I found out that one of the things that makes Wood’s Chapel BBQ unique is its use of wood-fired pits.
How’s The Food AT Wood’s Chapel BBQ? Check This Out
When I arrived at the restaurant, I was able to park right out in front on Georgia Avenue, which I hear is pretty rare, but I came around 1 p.m. on a cold weekday. The crowd was still light.
The restaurant’s set up is that you have to order your food and pay in advance at a counter, then find a place to sit in the main dining room or another one around the corner. I opted to sit in the space overlooking Georgia Avenue (where my car was).
The customer service was on point as the cashier was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave us some recommendations. The waitress who gave us our food was very attentive. The food came out quick!
What’s On The Menu At Wood’s Chapel BBQ?
The menu has what you’d expect at a ‘Que joint: whole hog, prime brisket, salmon, and turkey and a whole mess of sides. I ordered the Brisket Sandwich with a side of Greens and Mac ‘N Cheese.
First of all, the Mac ‘n Cheese was the best I’ve ever had at a BBQ spot. The greens were good, although my favorite type is to have less sugar in them. They were seasoned very well though.
The Brisket Sandwich was soft, juicy and delicious. From the looks of it, you would have thought it was a Sloppy Joe, with the bun and all. I really enjoyed the shredded brisket. It was a simple sandwich but flavorful and it hit the mark.
