Hanging off the side of Missionary Ridge overlooking Chattanooga, is a new restaurant destine to become a regular biker pit stop. There’s good barbeque, better barbeque, and then there’s damned good barbeque. That’s what they serve up at Sugar’s Ribs Big Time B.B.Q.

If you’re passing through Choo-Choo City (or live here) do your best to plan a lunch or dinner break on Sugar’s deck overlooking the city. If you’re like me, you too will have trouble deciding what to choose from their menu. This is ‘Southern’ barbeque at its best. From spare ribs, ‘Baaa-ad to the Bone’ lamb ribs, whole chickens, chopped pork, sandwiches or by the pound, then top it off with mouth watering sides, these folks have done their homework. The owners Karen and Chuck Haygood visited over one thousand B.B.Q. restaurants and came away with how to and how not to do B.B.Q. Chuck says, “Start with better meat, get better B.B.Q.”

I do believe Chuck is on to something here. Along with great meat and sides that includes Mo’ Rockin Stew, spicy or mayo slaw, grilled sweet vadalia onions, five styles of sauce’s serve to compliment very good cooking.
