Stopped for lunch at Fire Up BBQ - it was rated high on Yelp and I-Exit. Thought huh? Let’s give it a try… drive up to a quaint smaller place with a full parking lot at 1:30pm on a Thursday afternoon in February! We were warmly greeted and attended to while we took in the menu. We were assured the bbq would be good regardless of our meat choice and they did not lie! I had the chicken and my partner had the beef. My mouth waters even writing this review ! No salt or sauce needed ! Chicken was very tender and melts in your mouth-beef was tender and not full of grizzle. The sides seems pretty standard.
If you find yourself traveling on highway 75 in the GA stretch-and you would like some smoked bbq - this could be an excellent option for you - it was for us !
Brisket sandwich was super, good sauces, and the staff was friendly. I had the baked beans and they were really nice! Three types of beans and red/green peppers gave it a real unique flavor that wasn't overpowering. Coleslaw seemed to be perhaps not homemade and somewhat standard. Overall a great experience and we would definitely stop again given the opportunity.
I ordered the barbecue pulled pork nachos loaded. Let me tell you the young lady behind the counter 100% competent at her job. I got the best nachos of my life here ! This is a new spot added to my journeys! Thanks for the great food and professional staff!
Got the 2 meat combo platter with brisket, pork, fried okra, onion rings and cornbread. Add 2 regular drinks and for less than $25 USD my world got rocked! I always heard that Georgia has some of the best barbecue but to actually taste it... If you are traveling on I-75 South, stop right here. If you're local, stop right here. Cause it would be a sin to pass up food this good.
