This Is It BBQ and Seafood is battling other restaurants from Maryland, Michigan, and Virginia for this year's title of Best BBQ. They were fortunate enough to be the 2011 winner as well, and want to keep their winning streak alive.

There are currently 7 locations in the metro Atlanta area, with ours on being one of the biggest.Β  The founder of the concept is Shelley "Butch" Anthony, who opened his first restaurant in 1977, and has kept his organization a family run business and has always played a good role within the communities his restaurants are located.
