Wings smoked to perfection! We literally drove right back to Brook's and bought 24 more. We've typically waited a few minutes for our orders, but I didn't mind. If dude is bringing me those wings from the kitchen, I'm happy to wait. There were no tables in the restaurant when we were last there.

Unfortunately, my wings were not edible because they were way too salty. My husband agreed. His were good. Somebody forgot they had seasoned mine and seasoned it twice I guess. The store was closed by the time my husband arrived at our house with the food so it was too late to get the order corrected.

It's a super cute restaurant with a homey feel and it's right behind Kreme Delite and across from the Farmer's Market. The atmosphere is very laid back and quiet. Very relaxing. Sometimes they have live music and that's nice too. They have different special events and visitors at times but it's always advertised so you know ahead of time. There is plenty of parking across the street and it's just a short walk to the front door. The menu offers pulled pork plate or sandwich, ribs, chicken, brisket and there's even a barbecued bologna sandwich called a Buster burger. The potato salad is right on the mark with no onions. The baked beans are out of this world with pulled pork mixed in and a nice sweet, smoky flavor. We also got the banana pudding for dessert and it's so good. We've been to BawBaw's several times and we keep coming back. We've had the chicken and it was cooked to perfection. Nice and juicy inside, not dry like most barbecue chicken. But you'll still want to dip it in that delicious white sauce. So yummy. The brisket is fall apart tender and so tasty. The pulled pork is wonderful and not greasy and we love their pulled pork sandwich. The ribs are tender and flavorful. So far, everything we've eaten has been delicious and we have no complaints. We're working our way through the menu. The owners really care whether or not you enjoy your food and usually come out to chat for a bit. All the meats are cooked fresh daily and the sides and desserts are made fresh daily as well. Service is fast and friendly and the food is excellent and reasonably priced. We will definitely be back again and we highly recommend! Get you some BawBaw's barbecue! We are so glad to have this great restaurant in Athens.
