Absolutely amazing ribs. Could’ve been a bit more tender but the flavor and sauce was amazing. One of my new favorite spots in town.

They were NOT OPEN when we stopped and didn't look like they have been open in weeks. Does anyone have an update on this business And their hours of operation? The BBQ ribs we did have a few months ago were the best we had in Savannah. I hope that they are still in business.

Only doing pick up now from curbside tent. At 115 on a Saturday all they had was ribs and steak. Nice portion of ribs. They aren't pretty. but they are good. Hacked up and miscut but I'm not complaining.Nice smoked flavor but not overwhelming. Good mustard based sauce potato salad was good very good value for that price point. Comes with a bottle water
