Off the beaten path, and then another 200 yards. Tucked away just off GA 5/372, one mile north of Ball Ground, on the way toward Jasper. The meat is brisket, slightly smoked, dressed with a vinegar-based sauce, a bit too liberally applied. The skin-on fries are cooked in peanut oil! Decor of rural artifacts presented a la musee archeologique --what Cracker Barrel aspires to but does not achieve. A huge mountain trout is mounted up over the cash register. If you don't get why a restaurant that serves no seafood would have a fish on prominent display, you have no business eating barbecue. An enigmatic, faded print of the Mona Lisa hangs amongst vintage firarms and farm tools. The puddin'-filled chocolate pie and the trout put this reviewer in mind of Ollies, and those dear, dead days beyond recall.
