Fox Bros. is the gold standard of Atlanta BBQ, run by Texas-born brothers who brought Central Texas-style smoked meats to the city and made them their own. The brisket is exceptional — deeply smoky with a perfect bark — and the Frito pie and smoked chicken wings are cult favorites. Expect a wait on weekends; it's worth every minute.
