Another place with excellent food is "Bubba's BBQ" in Eureka Springs, AR. We made a 288 mile round trip aboard the Deuce to eat there last Saturday!

When Deucing, we enjoy eating at "joints" too, as opposed to franchise places.

i respectfuly disagree with wild horse bbq being a great place for eats. yes back in the day before it was rebuilt and the father hubert holman owned it i think it was number one in bbq and was truly a joint. there was even an old pepsi vending machine outside stocked with beer so if you were tall enough to reach the coin slot you could buy beer 24-7 and you didn't have to show no stinkin id. ahhh only in sequoyah county.

While passing thru Atlanta you have to stop at the Varsity. Best chili dog and onion rings on the planet.
