Sprayberry's Barbecue had its beginnings as Houston Sprayberry's gas station located on Highway 29 just north of downtown Newnan. In 1926, Houston was selling enough barbecue sandwiches from the back of the station to close the pumps and become a restaurant. With his barbecue sauce and wife Mattie Lou's Brunswick stew, Sprayberry's Barbecue became Newnan's most popular eating spot.
