    Brisket, pulled pork, ribs, greens, baked beans, Mac n cheese, cole slaw, salad, sauces

    Run to Babe's Smokehouse and eat absolutely EVERYTHING! We ordered catering for a luncheon, and now everyone needs a nap. Melt in your mouth brisket, ribs that fall off the bone. Perfect Mac n cheese, coleslaw, baked beans and let's not forget the sauces! Service was excellent as well. Will order again as well as take visitors to enjoy bbq perfection

    Babe's Smokehouse is a must stop if you're in the area. It looks like a truck stop but trust me, this is a great place to have some good BBQ. Babe's Smokehouse was a nice surprise for lunch. After looking on Yelp, everyone agreed Babe's Smokehouse was the best choice after reading the reviews. We just left Disney and I am craving a burger! Once we're seated, our waitress tells us the specials. Once of them was chopped beef smothered in mushrooms and brown gravy. Its still a burger, bring it on! The food tastes like my mom is in the kitchen, this was just some down home cooking. From the mashed potatoes to the homemade corn bread, Babe's Smokehouse should not be missed if you're in the Savannah area.

    Made the drive from Guyton while visiting for spring break at 3:30pm only to arrive to a desolate parking lot and closed sign. They need to update their hours. Found out their hours are not 11am-7pm as posted, but actually 11am-1:30pm. Not sure how anyone would know this or expect such short hours of operation. Not only did I waste my time visiting your location, but also didn't get to enjoy any great southern BBQ I'd heard about.

    But and lunch special country fried chicken Mac n cheese green beans.

    Great atmosphere. Super good price. But great take on the blt. Has thick cuts of bologna lettuce tomato and bacon with slice of Swiss and American. The country fried chicken was super good and juicy as well as the sides Mac n cheese and green beans with corn bread. Can't be the price 25 bucks with drinks and tax. Defently will go again.

    Located in a truck stop in the outskirts of Savanna there is a bbq joint doing things right. Making a unique sauce and smoking everything in pecan-wood for the right amount of time. It's nothing fancy but is everything it needs to be. I got the pork ribs, half chicken & pulled pork. All were fantastic including the sides 10/10. I particularly loved the spicy bbq sauce with its tanginess. I recommend you go here if you love meat and are in the area. Cheers!

    Fantastic local BBQ.

    You might be tempted to keep on driving by this place if you even manage to notice it from the road. It is indeed shack-like. This is no hyperbole like some places in the city that use the word "shack" in their names to suggest an authenticity they don't deserve. It is on these unexpected road sides where the "real McCoy" local food can be often be found and in this case, that's the absolute truth. Just don't be expecting anything remotely "fancy-pants". During our southern barbecue binge, we literally stumbled upon this place while looking for yet another hole-in-the-wall barbecue shack that we'd heard about. That other place unfortunately was not to be found; it must have closed, but just as we were despairing over this, we saw a sign for Babe's. It was meant to be; the BBQ angels were looking out for us. We pulled in and asked a gentleman who had just exited the doors and was heading to his car what he thought. He waxed poetic about how good the food was here and told us we'd be crazy not to try it. He said he was originally from Texas and "knew good BBQ" and that he'd traveled all over the south eating BBQ over the years and that Babe's was one of the best. We quickly parked our car. We're so glad we took his advice. This place is beyond unpretentious but with delicious country-style food. It is the antithesis of "fine dining" and that was fine by us. It's the typical southern BBQ set-up of a meat plus two sides. There is no alcohol license so tea, water or soft drinks is what you can get. I got the pork ribs here and my husband got the brisket. Both were absolutely delicous, mouthwateringly savory and tender, expertly smoked and barbecued. We were in southern barbecue heaven. Although I can't imagine someone who is not a meat eater wanting to come here but if you were such a person and found yourself dragged here by BBQ fiends, there are plenty of delicious sides like the mac and cheese that could easily make you swoon. The desserts, which were an assortment of southern style cakes looked quite tempting, but we both were too full to do more than gaze lovingly at the display. There was a beautiful Red Velvet cake for one. I used the rest room here and I am happy to report that it was clean and not scary. On the way out we talked to one of the cooks who was outside at that smoker shack. He was generous with his cooking and meat smoking tips but something tells me, that even with our own smoker set-up at home it may be hard to reach the culinary heights of this humble place. .

    Had a craving for some BBQ and had to check out Wiley's on Whitemarsh Island…read more It is located in an obscure strip mall shared with a Chevron gas Station and across the street from Publix and Walmart. Don't let this scare you away... the good places are always like this!!! We walked in and were immediately greeted and sat at a high-top table. The restaurant was clean and busy. Our server was a younger guy who was in training but you would have easily assumed he was a pro. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and confident when fielding the questions we had about the menu. We ordered a Half Slab portion of their St Louis Cut Ribs platter with fries and mac-and-cheese as a side & the 1/2 Chicken platter with Brunswick Stew and mac-and-cheese as a side. Both proteins were tender and well seasoned. Both were served with a piece of buttered Texas toast. Their original and Better than Sex sauces were great additions to the flavors! The mac-and-cheese was creamy and delicious. Not my favorite Brunswick Stew but it satisfied the craving that I had.

My wife and I each ordered the 4 bone, St. Louis cut spare ribs and 2 sides. She went with Collards and Sweet Potato casserole and I also did. Collards but added potato salad as my second side. The ribs arrived looking a bit man handled but that what due to the tenderness of the meat. Using the "Better Than Sex - Original" sauce was a great compliment to the smoked meat. The meat alone was delicious without being over smoked. Paired with the sauce it was truly delicious. The collards were tasty though I do like mine cooked with some pork added. We were offered some hot sauce and should have tried a splash or two. The casserole and the potato salad were both quite tasty and were nice balanced against the collards. Service was great and I wish we lived less than a thousand miles away. Definitely give this place a try b

    I loved the ribs, they really were fall off the bone and flavorful without the sauce (even though…read morethat sauce is delicious!). I was hankering for some ribs and this place had great reviews and it was only 5 mins from where I was pet sitting. I waited till 5p, bc I wanted to go at 3p but figured I might get leftovers from lunch. I got ribs w/2 sides which were baked beans and green beans& then an extra side of mac&cheese. Well just as I had feared, that mac had to have been made earlier in the day bc it was not fresh and cheesy. Most ppl can tell when mac&cheese has been sitting there for a long time. I thought since it was 5p they would have put a new pan out. The green beans were good (basically tasted like they came right from the can with a couple of spices). The baked beans were really good! I enjoyed them immensely! The ribs like I said were tender, juicy and a good portion. The banana pudding I got tasted fresh and DELICIOUS!! It taste's like how I make mine. Overall it was a really good experience. The lady that took my order & the one that brought it out to me were very friendly. I didn't catch their names. I just got a to go order. Definitely go for the ribs, the baked beans, the sauce & the banana pudding. The mac&cheese? You might need to ask them when it was made bc this was not made just a couple hrs ago. Look at this picture and tell me that was baked within the last 3 hrs.

We tried the Smashburger special with fried Brussels sprouts tossed in a sticky Asian glaze -- and I say this as a Brussels enthusiast: some of the best I've had in my life. The pulled pork sandwich was a hit with the kids (zero leftovers = five-star review). The mac and cheese disappeared faster than I could taste it. And yes, we got the tots -- well seasoned and totally necessary. No dine-in space, but honestly? Sitting in the car with the A/C blasting, swapping bites with the kids, and not worrying about anyone spilling on a restaurant floor felt just right. It was about $57 for the full spread (plus drinks) -- not cheap, but absolutely worth it.
