Barbecue Qualifications
Saturday, October 31st, 2009By MARK JOHNSON, Restaurant Editor
Before you even THINK about eating its meat, a REAL barbecue restaurant has to show its certifieds.
It has to have at least one hand-lettered sign and one framed picture of a pig.
Smyrna’s Old South Barbecue meets both those qualifications and a great many more.
