You want believe this one,Patak Meats,Austell, GA. I waited in line for about 35 mins just to get one of the owner some business card, get his e-mail so I could talk with him later. I didn't take any pictures inside as I didn't want to be in the way of business but I have some below from the inter of the inside
Patak is primarily a wholesale operation, but they have opened a storefront to vend to the public. Their hours are normally limited to 9-5 on weekdays, but they do open on the first Saturday of every month. The lines extend out the door and into the parking lot. In talking to customers there, the lines are pretty much a normal situation. they the clientele is a pretty interesting mix of people, locals and out-of-staters.
Patak's website indicates that their operation is powered by two Fessman smokers capable of producing up to20,000 lbs. of product a day. As well, their dry cured products are aged in a Travaglini Italian drying room.
So you want to get in line for the good stuff of our trade
