Tom’s Thumb is a gas station, car wash, craft shop, wine cellar and competition-style barbecue restaurant, all in one. Chef and owner Kipp Lassetter is a former surgeon, and here he runs a fine operation. Chicken, pork and brisket are all smoked in-house. Try the smoked and fried pork over creamy grits with jalapeno bacon.
This trip, Guy's heading southwest for a flavor-filled tour of sunny Arizona. First, the real deal Italian market making an authentic beef specialty straight from the mother country. Also in Scottsdale, a pitstop at the funky gas station/barbecue cafe dishin' out the bomb brisket alongside a host of handcrafted fuel — yes, fuel. And in Phoenix, the out-of-the-box burger joint serving up all kinds of crazy culinary creations.
This trip, Guy Fieri's grabbing seconds of some of the best bacon, burgers and smokin' meats in between. First up, an Atlanta brunch spot is still serving up scratch-made Southern staples like smoked bacon meatloaf and the-bomb banana bread. Then, a joint in Scottsdale, Ariz., is keeping the competition-style barbecue going with some serious smoked pork and a rockin' ribs plate. Finally in Fort Worth, Texas, cowboy cookin' is killin' it with a chuckwagon chicken-fried steak and a next-level burger with a bologna twist.
