My first bowl was the White Diamond Grill, off of Hwy 247 in Central GA, a long gone memory now.
This place my friend is the mecca of BBQ. And because our Creator is a merciful being whose love for us is infinite this place is still there and my wife, who is in central Ga. as I type this tending to an aging parent will return in a few days with both q and stew....although I must confess their stew is a bit on the vinegary side for me. But even Cindy Crawford had a mole on her cheek....was she any less beautiful because of it? I and most of you in my age group would argue no or even "what mole?"
WTBS, what Calvin Johnson is to wide receivers or the Varsity is to chili slaw dogs or a well trained English Setter is to upland bird hunting, the White Diamond is to bbq. If you live within a 2,500 mile radius of Bonaire, Ga. you owe it to yourself to make a pilgrimage to it. It looks like the place your wife would not want to stop at but, at the end of the day, all great BBQ places or blues clubs/juke joints fit this description.
If the White Diamond served collard greens and cornbread and beer and had all the GT footballs on big screen TV and was located on a golf course it would indeed be Valhalla or Paradise or Heaven here on earth. I love that place.
