It’s the age old question for BBQ lovers in Starkville. Do you prefer The Little Dooey or Petty’s?
The Dooey blasted Rosey Baby in the first round, and Petty’s smoked Two Brothers (bad pun). So here we are in a heavyweight second round matchup in the Starkville Restaurant Challenge to determine not only who has the best food, but who moved on to the quarterfinals.
The Little Dooey gets all the attention. Fame, glory – celebrities on the wall and mentions from ESPN when they’re in town for a game. Petty’s is a side-of-the-road joint on Highway 12 – a better location you might say, but almost no fanfare.
