Friday and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Leonard Heuberger opened Leonard’s Pit Barbecue at the corner of Bellevue and McLemore in 1922.

The sandwiches are meaty, the sauce is rich and tangy, and the slaw is mustardy. Great big seasoned potato wedges stand in for fries, and I highly recommend you give them a try. There is also brisket and barbecue bologna on the menu. The daily lunch buffet is popular, serving up Southern favorites like catfish and country-fried steak, in addition to ribs and sandwiches. http://leonardsbarbecue.com/ The ...
