I know there must be hundereds of "Southern Cooking" joints. Which are the best for BBQ and general good eating. Which should be avoided?

My wife and I have eaten there a few times. Great breakfast. Down home southern like mama makes. Tue May 23 11:05:24 -0700 2006 749733 0 Davwud 1 751218 If you can swing it. Stop by the Jack Daniels distillery on Friday or Saturday. They have a BBQ on top of a hill overlooking the hollow. It's fantastic. $20/head. Not sure if they'll still be doing it in October but well worth looking into. Tue May 23 11:08:07 -0700 2006 749733 0 Davwud
