Once again it has been a while since I've posted, so I'm trying out a product called Mars Edit to see if it helps make the posting easier.

I couldn't think of a good topic right off the bat, so I thought I would go with one of my favorites, which is Barbecue. Barbecue is one of those things that vary by region, so just to be clear since I'm in the south we're talking about pulled pork.

There are many great Barbecue places in Georgia, but one of the most well known is Col. Poole's in Ellijay. If you are traveling up Hwy. 515 Col. Poole's is hard to miss, with the Hill of Pigs. It's called the Pig Hill of Fame for a reason and many local politicians and radio personalities have their own pig on the hill.

In order to compete with the Hill's attention the building is a nice match of faux logs, yellow and pink florescent paint and a red tin roof.

Moving inside there is a large assortment of memorabilia to remind you of your trip.

Not to worry though the menu is simple and direct, the pork plate is excellent

The interior decorating follows the exterior's pattern with pictures and news paper clippings about the restaurant

The service is quick and you will not soon forget the excellent slow cooked pork

If you are up near Ellijay, stop by one of their most famous landmarks Col. Poole's Bar-B-Q
