Fat Man's Bar-B-Que ~ Local Tradition For 40 Years Has A New Home
Located south of Pell City in Cropwell at 10179 Hwy 231 you will find, in my opinion, the best Bar-B-Que in the south. What a real treat it was to dine at Fat Man's Bar-B-Que the other night in their brand new restaurant built in the same location as the original one that burnt down 15 years ago.
Jon Davis, the third generation owner of Fat Man's, decided after taking over the restaurant in 2007, to build back the same style restaurant that his father lost in the fire. With some modifications on the outside from the original building, the new restaurant is open for business. The smaller building that they operated from the last 15 years could only seat approximately 20 to 25 people. The new restaurant can seat about 70 people on the inside and about 44 on the covered side porch. What fun it is going to be to be able to hang out and eat on the outside deck when the weather warms up.
If you are new in the area you will find that the food is delicious and it will keep you coming back for more. They offer pork, beef and chicken bar-b-ques, ribs, hamburgers, hot dogs, catfish, plus much more. One of my favorites is the fried mushrooms. Their hours on Wednesday and Thursday are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Friday and Saturday 10 a.m to 9 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Dine in or call 205-525-5255 for carry out.
