Dining Review: Smokin’ Gold BBQ – Dahlonega GA

Terri and I recently took a trip up to Dahlonega and stumbled across the Smokin’ Gold BBQ, located right off the square. We had eaten here before at their old location across town but wasn’t aware that they had moved and expanded out here to the square.

We liked it then and we like it now. This place is good.

In fact – it is officially my favorite bbq restaurant in northeast Georgia. My wife rates it third behind a couple of other places but I’m crazy about this place. It’s fantastic and these guys have won awards all over the place for their bbq.

I had pulled pork and pulled chicken and Terri had sliced brisket. We both had Brunswick stew and cole slaw. It was absolutely out of this world. Fantastic. The barbecue was especially good, the cole slaw and Brunswick stew were both good – but not the best we’ve ever had. But it’s the flavor of that meat that really sets this place apart. Our only complaint is that we felt like they could have given us larger portions (or was it just THAT good?).

Let me add one other thing…the bbq sauce is fabulous. I don’t think I’ve ever had any with this much flavor. You could easily eat this meat without sauce but the sauce was so good we piled it on!

So if you are roaming around northeast Georgia and you are in the mood for some good bbq we suggest you head over to Dahlonega, park on the square, find Smokin’ Gold, and have a fantastic lunch. You can then take a walk around the square, do some shopping, and get rid of a few extra calories.

Highly recommended!
