About Yard BBQ
Yard BBQ runs out of a Campbellton Road storefront in southwest Atlanta and is owned by Joshua Wright, who describes himself as a barbecue specialist and frames the operation as honest, home-cooked Southern food rather than a smokehouse-with-a-program concept. The menu reflects that — it is a Southern-comfort lineup rather than a strictly competition-style barbecue menu, with ribs, rib tips, smothered chicken, pork chops, Cajun pasta, chicken and waffles, and homemade mac and cheese on the everyday list.
Reviews zero in on the rib tips. Multiple reviewers single them out for smoke, seasoning, and texture, and they show up more frequently in praise than the full ribs, which one reviewer found stringier. The barbecue sauce gets specific mention as well, along with the mac and cheese. The restaurant also surfaces in at least one Atlanta chicken-and-waffles guide, which suggests the breakfast-leaning items hold their own beyond barbecue.
Hours skew toward an early-day operation — 7 a.m. open, 7 p.m. close, Tuesday through Saturday — which is unusual for an Atlanta barbecue spot and ties back to the chicken-and-waffles, breakfast, and lunch trade as much as dinner. Catering, private chef, and event work are part of the business as well.

Lonnie did a wonderful job cooking the ribs. They were moist and tender and the meat just fell off the bone. The baked beans soaked in rum were delicious. The music was "cut you to the bone" blues with John Lee Hooker
