Lewis Barbecue
The Atlas Review
The BBQ Atlas
John Lewis brought Central Texas barbecue to Charleston in 2016; this is the Atlanta outpost, on Piedmont Avenue.
Lewis Barbecue is what happens when a pitmaster decides Texas-style smoke belongs beyond Texas and opens the doors to prove it. John Lewis started the business in 2016, and the Atlanta location carries the same approach — brisket, ribs, and the rest done in the Central Texas tradition.
Open daily from eleven, later on Fridays and Saturdays. The address is 1544 Piedmont Avenue NE. There are other locations in Charleston and Greenville; this is the Atlanta one.
