It’s a vibrant atmosphere, and we’re excited to add our particular flavor to it. We’ve put ourselves on the map and down there we have the Ferris wheel, the Falcons, and the Braves. The city of Atlanta is really starting to compete with other culinary cities. It’s a goal of mine to pull them all together and have them at my own place.Ĭastleberry has a really positive vibe. There’s not one place where you can get the best brisket, best ribs, best pulled pork, the best Brunswick stew, and the best sides. Most barbecue places in Georgia have the relaxed atmosphere but stick to basics.
I’ve tried to implement it wherever I’ve been-Meehan’s, Food 101. I remember being out in the backyard with my family when we were kids. Why did you decide to focus on barbecue for your new restaurant?
Below, Wakefield shares details on the restaurant. Smoke Ring will serve traditional barbecue, as well as sliders, small plates, soups, and salads, with sides such as cotija corn on the cob, bacon, and jalapeno cornbread. It occupies the space previously home to J.R. The latest from 101 Concepts (they also operate Cibo e Beve, Food 101, and Meehan’s Public House), this “gastrocue” will be led by Jordan Wakefield, former executive chef at Meehan’s downtown, and his wife Erin. *My meal was complimentary however all opinions are my own.Smoke Ring, a new barbecue joint, is scheduled to open in Castleberry Hill at the end of September. Until next time…Happy Eating!! xoxo -Milla What do you think about having BBQ for brunch? Once football season rolls around add a stop to Smoke Ring to your pre-game festivities! If brunch isn’t your thing the lunch and dinner menu is still available. It is a good option for brunch that could satisfy everyone in your family because of the diversity of the menu. I had to take a picture in front of the horse in carriage ☺️ This is an ideal brunch for a couple as you can take part in the mimosas and they also have “man-mosas” that includes wheat beer, champagne and orange juice. The portions are large and we were easily able to share and we still had food left over. This is also served with seasoned fried potatoes.īoth dishes were “stick to your ribs” kind of dishes that left both Tawana and I stuffed. I am a HUGE fan of the smoked salmon, I just wish I had more of that chipotle hollandaise that added an extra smokey and spicy flavor. I mean what’s eggs without cheese right? Chef Wakefield added a twist to this brunch classic by topping it with a chipotle hollandaise. This is your typical benedict with an English muffin and of course we went with scrambled eggs instead of poached and yes we added cheese to that too lol. We also tried the Smoke Ring Benedict and added smoked salmon. Because Smoke Ring offers a variety of BBQ sauces I think next time I will ask that no sauce be added so that I can add my own and try some of the other flavors. We also added a little cheese to the eggs. This dish typically comes with 2 over easy eggs, but I prefer my eggs scrambled so that’s how we had it prepared. It included tender smoked brisket, onions and peppers tossed in a chipotle BBQ sauce that laid on a bed of fried potatoes. We ordered 2 brunch entreés with one of them being the smoked brisket hash. They reminded me of loaded hash browns formed into a giant ball and fried. Overall they were good, just not what I expected. They are pretty crispy on the outside and you will need to cut them open with a knife. Three large tots stuffed with bacon, jalapeno, cheddar cheese and was served on top of an ancho chile ketchup. We didn’t quite know what to expect but then these babies came to the table. Smoke Ring has an interesting brunch menu that included these large tater tots. On this trip, I took my good friend Tawana with me for a day of food and 1…maybe 2…ok 4 glasses of mimosas. One of my co-workers had mentioned this restaurant to me before as he’s an avid lover of BBQ, so I was stoked about stopping in for a visit. There’s lots of wood from the tables to the bar and it even has a small area with a few old school arcade games. I would describe the space as rustic and sleek. You can never go wrong with BBQ for brunch Located in the Castleberry Hill area of Downtown near the new Mercedes Benz stadium, Georgia native Chef Jordan Wakefield has created some cool twists on BBQ. If you’re looking for bottomless mimosa’s in Atlanta, Smoke Ring should be on your list! I’ve been on the hunt for bottomless mimosa’s in the City for a while now, so I am pretty excited that I’ve come across Smoke Ring.
