    Small town charm with open air flair. This menu has something for everyone. I highly recommend the soul bowl or the holy trinity. The Captains special is a local favorite. It is a HUGE bake potato topped with butter, sour cream, cheese, and smoked pork butt.

    Oh my my my my my!!! Like licking a chimney, Baby, because that's how much smoke they serve up! More excellent food in this Brunswick-to-Kingsland stretch! A disproportionate number of gifted chefs live in these parts! My husband said he's never tasted bark like that before! Man, it was so good! Yes, fell off the bone when I picked it up. So tender and smoky! The bowls were great ideas! My collards were perfect taste, texture, portion and proportion to the rest of my bowl with smoked chicken (again tasted lots of smoke) and lima beans in gravy. Such a good combo, so filling and fulfilling! My husband loved his pork, slaw and lima bowl! Tender pork, crunchy (couple kinds of cabbage) sweet coleslaw, and those buttery earthy limas! Band playing live music was good, and service was very friendly. We are adding this to our list for visits to the area! Great experience, great food!

    It's edible. Not much seasoning...if you like burnt ends this is your place. Loaded potato mainly was burnt crisp Boston butt. The ribs were big, but fatty and crispy outer coating. I've never met a Lima bean that was nowhere green and cooked that way. It had a small quick, garlic, onion, but odd other seasoning. The baked beans tasted like they were from a can. Then here comes the fun part of a surprise $3 fee because the band started to play before our bill arrived. Thankfully the server understood our confusion on that fee and took it off. Restrooms, go ahead and cross your legs and wait til your next location. Beer selection was sad. No local beers. At least they had ginger beer for a mule, but pricing was high for a cocktail at a place like this.

    We stopped in and found a friendly outdoor bbq place. We didn't know what to expect, but it was fantastic!!! Service was fast, friendly and since we had allergy questions, the chef came out and was more than helpful. Food was fantastic and we couldn't ask for more!! Well worth the trip and the price couldn't be beat!!!

    Stage and seating

    On a road trip south we found this amazing hole-in-the-wall BBQ. It had good (affordable) food, a hopping band, and a friendly dog. They warned us they were super short staffed, but honestly the service was still pretty good. I've had way worse. We stayed about an hour longer than we had planned before resuming our road trip, but i think it was worth it. Would love to come again some time.

    To a local.....Is Stan's under new management? It seems different , the bar clientele has changed and the ribs seem different. Just an observation and curiousity. From a local.

We've also had it before with pork several times, and that doesn't disappoint. On another note, I heard another customer asking our server about some of the other staff. On this day, the owner wasn't working. I don't know if these were the exact words of the server's answer, but what I heard was "Captain Jack's off".

I realize restaurants are on a schedule and expect my food to be at a different level. This was not the case here. It was perfect. It is important to note that we came in at 2:30 in the afternoon and were the only customers in the place. Sometimes this means the food would be leftovers from lunch but everything we ate was very fresh. I had the sliced pork. The slices were a quarter inch thick and to big to eat in 1 bite. The pork was fork tender even at that thickness so I did not need a knife. I would say it was THE BEST restaurant sliced pork I have ever had. I asked about a spicy sauce and was told they have something called Big Poppas that stays in the back and she brought me some. It was a really good spicy sauce but not so overwhelming that you couldn't taste the meat. The fries were just fries but they were hit and crispy. I had baked beans. They had really good flavor and chunks of pork mixed in for an added bonus. This was also fresh and hot. My wife had the brisket plate and said the same about her food. She took home more brisket than she ate. It was huge.

Then Ernie ordered a side of fries and Arlynn and Noe ordered two large sides(come slaw and Mac n cheese)of BBQ Baked beans. We met at 2pm, after the lunch crowd was gone. I loved the murals all around the building on Roosevelt Blvd(near Edgewood exit). Parking was fine. I went in and told the Waitress I was there a little early. When everyone was there, I went up and ordered. Everyone employee was so nice. The BBQ & sides were delicious. The sweet tea was very good.

The chicken had a lot of flavor and loved it the cilantro lime coleslaw. The shredded pork was ok, it needed more flavor, maybe so you can eat with the sauces they have at the table. Service was fast. Good place to try if you don't have high cholesterol lol
