What happened after Food Paradise?

Bone Lick BBQ appeared in the "Wild & Wacky" episode for its chef-driven ribs, brisket, pulled pork and quarter chicken, served alongside house-infused moonshines and vintage arcade games at its West Midtown location. According to Atlanta Magazine, chef Mike LaSage started the concept as a weekly pop-up, which grew into a brick-and-mortar at 1133 Huff Road NW after Atlanta Magazine named it the city's best. A Yelp listing updated July 2026 lists the restaurant as closed.

This episode featured Bone Lick BBQ as part of a sandwich-themed lineup, spotlighting its chef-driven, wood-smoked barbecue in Atlanta. The restaurant operates from a location on Huff Rd NW in the West Midtown area, offering dine-in, takeout, and catering, according to its website. A Yelp listing for this address, last updated in March 2026, does not mark the business as closed, and Google Places lists the business as operational, according to Google Places (checked 2026-09-09). The restaurant previously operated from an Edgewood Avenue address in the Old Fourth Ward; a separate Yelp listing for that address is marked permanently closed, indicating the business relocated to its current West Midtown location, according to Yelp.
