Buy the Bone Bar-B-Q

Good, not great. Sides seemed a little Kroger-​y. Good smoke on the meat. Sauce was above average by a little. Worth a try if you’re in the neighborhood. Kudos for serving an under served community.

After a long hike up Stone Mountain my girlfriend and I decided on finding a good local BBQ place. After reading the previous reviews I was sold. We ordered the pork sliders, wings, ribs, potato salad, and the Mac and cheese. Everything was hot and prepared very fast. I definitely will be back again this weekend for more. If you’re looking for good food at a good price this is the place to go!

If your looking for BBQ done right do your tastebuds a favor and take them to this spot Buy The Bone BBQ! Great service, Catering etc…

The smoked wings were great. The sides were just ok. So you get 4 stars for the awesomeness of your smoked wings alone.
Improve the sides and you will be on your way to five-​stardom.

Don’t be put off by the appearance — it’s a repurposed 1920s gas station with their smoker out front. The ribs were fall-​off-​the-​bone amazing, and the homemade sauces are delicious! Their pulled pork sliders are also pretty awesome!

This is my bbq. When I feel the need for bbq when I’m in the area it’s not even a second thought about where I going. It’s small so you will not be eating there, but after you eat the food you will come back.

Well. I wouldn’t consider myself a ‘foodie’ but I do try new restaurants around the city at least once a week and Wednesdays are usually the day. My son and I wanted something close by because it is a rainy day and we started looking online. I came across Buy the Bone BBQ in Stone Mountain and we got excited because there are a couple of bbq places here in Stone Mountain that leave much to be desired and after reading H.G.‘s review, we decided to give it a try. We pulled up to find a small family sitting outside in the screened in porch and figured that if they cam out in the rain, it must be good. We were greeted by a friendly gentleman and ordered the rib tip plate with mac and cheese, a brisket sandwich, and a fried talapia sandwich. We took it to go and went the 10 minutes back home. The rib tips were bland but I could deal with that. Underneath the fresher meat were old, dried up pieces of meat-​I wish I could add the pics I took of the food-​especially the meat (AND you would figure that since they are CLOSED Monday and Tuesday, with today being Wednesday, the meat would be fresh). The corn muffin was just a but bigger than a quarter, the collard greens were bland and could have stood a bit more cooking, and the mac and cheese was just not good. My son got the talapia sandwich and said it reminded him of cafeteria lunch fish-​dry and overcooked. He was expecting some lettuce and tomato on it, but oh well. The brisket was the same as the rib tips-​over cooked and dried out. I can honestly say that I have not had this bad of an experience with local food before. I am so sorry that we went there.

This is sum tasty BBQ! After all the times of driving past, I decided to stop in. I had the rib tips dinner with homemade mac & cheese, and collard greens (bland but not overcooked) I plan on making return visits often.

Listen up, BBQ lovers! If you’re a true bone suckin’, sauce lovin’, BBQ junkie, kick start your GPS and make your way to this TRUE smokey oasis! I stumbled upon Buy The Bone while looking for a friends new place. A very modest place of business that made my mind SCREAM «put a mental bookmark here!». I made a point of backtracking when it came to return home and stopped in and I must say that it was the first of MANY trips! I’m a rib kinda guy and I must say that THESE are as good as a the four-​leggged porker can ever give!!! Moist, meaty and perfectly seasoned and consistent across my many visits. So good that I took them to the in-​laws for Thanksgiving dinner! Hell, I couldn’t WAIT for Xmas to pass so I could go get a slab… I’m on my way NOW!!!
