For chopped pork sandwiches, it's Neal's Barbecue in Thomson, Georgia. (And nothing else is even close...)
For ribs, I'd agree with Harold's in Atlanta. Fat Matt's Rib Shack is also pretty good...

All of these are going to be based on each persons opinion but if you want mine. There is a place outside of Athens, Bills BBQ, that I have been going to since I was little. They have the best chip plate and delicious Brunswick stew at a cheap price.

Hot Thomas in Watkinsville, Georgia. I highly recommend it and have been eating there since I was a kid. Beware, they are only open certain days and hours so, call before you go. Also, print off directions because it is out in the middle of nowhere.

Harold's in Atlanta, but only at lunch and only when the cops are eating there! It is in a BAD neighborhood!!!!!
There is also a place in Athens, but it is only open on Fridays and Saturdays, can't remember the name offhand
Cowtippers is average to above average
Fat Matt's rib shack is good especially if you like live music
I can't comment on One star ranch as I haven't tried it yet
Hot Thomas' in Watkinsville is above average too, but not as good as Harold's by any means

Sam and Dave's BBQ1, 4944 Lower Roswell Road, Marietta. My friend took me there and I didn't want to stop eating. Best BBQ I have ever had. They also offer classes in BBQ technique, but they are almost always sold out.
By the way, Avoid Sonny's like the plague. Worst ever.

For ribs, nothing can compete with Fat Matts. Great live music too.
