Grub: DBA Barbecue

DBA Barbecue

From veteran BBQ'ers (Rathbun's, Eclipse di Luna, B'ham's Jim 'N Nick's), DBA -- or "Doing Business As" -- has taken over the former Vine space to serve up pulled pork, brisket, smoked chicken/turkey, and KC- & Memphis-style ribs, plus 15 house-made sides from BBQ baked beans to a deep fried corn cob. Marinate yourself in southern beers (Terrapin, Turbo Dog), or grab funky hard stuff like Bacon-Infused Bourbon or the scary-sounding Pickled Moonshine Martini -- with pickle juice, dry vermouth, and Junior Johnson moonshine, you might end up burning down the backroads just to get away from it.

Get really, really saucy, at DBABarbecue.com

Crash: Vols License Plate Party at STATS

Vols License Plate Party at STATS

Crash this party for brazen Tennessee fans, who've officially modified GA license plates to include UT touts, and'll be selling them in hopes of a hostile takeover of our red&black streets. Meanwhile, you'll get: a limitless buffet (wings, jack & chicken nachos, pulled pork sliders, and chicken potstickers), $5 mojitos, and $3 beers including Newcastle, Harp, and Blue Moon -- which you should freely partake of, since it's only once in one of those that the Vols will actually contend for the title.

$10 advance ticket purchases end today, at StatsATL.com

7pm Friday at STATS: 300 Marietta St, Downtown; 404.974.2930 | Website
