Sprayberry’s Celebrates 85th
Anniversary
Fact Sheet
• March 25, 2011 marked the 85th
year celebration of Sprayberry’s Barbecue at its
original location in downtown Newnan.
• As part of the festivities, both locations hosted a birthday party with cake and
balloons for all customers as well as prizes, drawings and discounts.
• Sprayberry’s was first opened in 1926 by Houston Sprayberry as a gas station and
grocery store in then small-town Newnan, Ga.
• By the 1950’s, Houston found he was making more money selling barbecue
sandwiches and converted his business into Sprayberry’s Barbecue.
• Since 1926, Houston Sprayberry’s original recipes for the barbecue sauce,
Brunswick stew and sweet-and-sour coleslaw have remained the same.
• Over the years, new items such as baby-back ribs, potato salad, barbecue nachos,
smoked barbecue wings, beer, and wine have been added to the menu in order to
appeal to more customers.
