Abstract:

Located in the southwestern corner of the state, four and a half miles from Tennessee and three miles from Georgia, in the community of Hothouse, is Herb's Pit Bar-B-Que. Herb Gibson began by feeding fellow copper miners in Tennessee, but in 1982 decided to go into business. A second generation of Gibsons now keeps the hickory and charcoal pit stoked and the chicken and pork cooking.
