City Barbeque — Lexington
The Atlas Review
The BBQ Atlas
City Barbeque sits on Harrodsburg Road in Lexington, running its smokers on-site and serving competition-quality barbecue six days a week.
The business started in 1999 and cooks low and slow over local hickory. This outpost keeps the same approach: meat smoked here, no shortcuts, open daily from half-ten through evening.
They run later on Fridays and Saturdays — till ten — and open an hour later on Sundays. The smokers are visible, the fuel is hickory, and the method doesn't change.
