    I was underwhelmed by Southern Soul, but all of my friends also said it was by far the best bbq in GA.

    Mobile is really a dookie food city. Osmans and some of the causeway joints are really the only standouts. La Cocinas too I suppose

    You’ve just got several spots trying to outdo the same menu items. It gets old after a while. Should be a good Vietnamese scene here due to the large population but they all just make seafood

    Yup, that’s our other spot. We were down there for about a month working a couple years back and ate on the causeway pretty much every night. Got to become friends with the manager at Bluegill (his name was Justin but he went by ‘Stin’ lol) and he let us stay after close and drink beer and fish off the dock. Great dude and good times.

    I went to school with the kids of the owners of Original Oyster House and Osmans. We ate at the Oyster House all the time after CYO basketball games. So it was my favorite for a while until I started going to Bluegill as an adult.

    Used to love going there for some ribs and a few beers and playing a game of pool with the old heads in there

    It’s a 2 weeks in advance idea to have due to the size of the restaurant and the demand but it’s always fantastic. Nice people too

    Was he the one slinging sandwiches on the strip for a while?

    Seems to suggest he was. I had those sandwiches, they were great. Looks like he opened a new spot last year, hope it's going well.

    Kalbi beef rib is a life changer. They do awesome daily sandwiches as well. The Korean chopped pork, wings, kimchi collards, tempura sweet potatoes, it’s all phenomenal.

    How much better is like Franklin than what I get at fox brothers? I'd probably prefer fox brother's for the weird shit I love. But from a meat purist standpoint.

    Brisket is unquestionably the best medium for BBQ, and Franklin and others in Texas do it much better than anywhere else. There's still great BBQ everywhere.
