The ribs are usually good, but their brisket, shredded meats, and chicken tend to be really dry. It’s not unusual for the sides to come out cold either. It’s definitely worth trying, and I go every couple of months since I live in Mequon and it’s pretty close to me, but they aren’t very consistent. When everything clicks, though, they can be very good.
I live 3 blocks from Atlas. I'm no barbecue aficionado, but I don't think it's good at all. Unfortunately my wife does, so we go there more often than I'd like. Seems expensive to me too.
Great bar though.
I went to Atlas last weekend. $22 for 3 meat sampler. Got ribs, brisket & pulled pork. Portions kinda small. Thought that would be enough for leftovers. Nope. Ribs & brisket were nothing special. Pulled pork was solid. Hard to mess that up though. Definitely a bit overpriced. Probably will end up back there too since my friend lives up there and he really seems to like it. Not a ton of options up there in that genre.
Yeah there really isn't a good barbecue place within 15 miles of here. I hear all of these locals talk about how good atlas is, but I think it's mostly because they've lived in grafton their whole lives.
I like having a couple drinks there though. If you like brown liquor it's a petty great bar.
