ANTIOCH. Many consider the fare from Whitt's to be among the best barbecue in Nashville and with the size of the lunch crowd that pulls in here daily, it's easy to see why. The joint specializes in pork, but also serves up tasty (and smothered) helpings of beef, chicken and turkey. Warning: "hot" means "very hot."

BRENTWOOD. Corky's Bar-B-Q brings the sweet flavor of Memphis-style BBQ to Music City. The diner-like atmosphere is made complete with classic rock and roll and sharp-tongued waitresses ­ you get the feeling that the clocks here are permanently stuck on 1959. The menu is impressive for a barbecue joint, including everything from pork sandwiches and coleslaw to tamales and a half chicken dinner. If the traditional fare doesn't tempt your taste buds, have a go at one of their massive baked potatoes, which comes disguised as a heaping pile of toppings.

GREEN HILLS. Fruit tea, or fruit tea punch, has become a staple in most Nashville restaurants these days, but it can often be cloyingly sweet. Not so the fruit tea at any of Bread & Company's area locations. Their secret mixture of tea, juices, sugar, and mint ­ served over Bread & Company's crushed ice ­ is a perfect Southern summertime cooler. Half-gallons and gallons to go are also available.
