West Midtown’s favorite bar-b-cade, Bone Lick BBQ, is excited to invite friends and fellow barbecue aficionados to celebrate its second year of success on Saturday, August 9, 2014.

Taking over the expansive sidewalk in front of the restaurant, partygoers will have an opportunity to dunk their favoriteBone Lick BBQ staffers and local personalities throughout the day to help raise need funds for their charities of choice.  Beer lovers can get their fill during a Monday Night Brewing chugging competition and those that dare can participate in the Fat Ass Muff Challenge - a.k.a. attempt to eat the ultimate 5-pound sandwich filled with pulled pork, house smoked sausage, smoked brisket, collard greens, crispy onions, jalapeno infused bacon, and homemade coleslaw.

Simultaneously, another round of Bone Lick’s infamous Sammy Remix Challenge will take place. This competition is for those courageous individuals who want to “reinvent the classic,” pulled pork sammy. The winner of this challenge gets the honor of having their sandwich named after them and placed on the menu for all of Atlanta to enjoy. As always, guests can enjoy free skee ball and take advantage of the barb-b-cade’s multitude of classic arcade games throughout the day and night.
