    Turkey, sausage, corn pudding, okra
    Tina G.

    We were greeted right away and seated. Menu is somewhat limited, but we found something that looked good. I had the pulled pork tacos and a side of corn pudding. Good flavor once I added some sauce, which was really needed to add moistness and another layer of flavor. Some of the pork on the tacos was a bit dried out. The corn pudding was moist and tasty. My friend had the platter with smoked turkey and sausage. I tried the turkey which was moist and delicious and my friend said the sausage was tasty. It was juicy and looked like it had cheese inside. The fried okra was crisp and delicious. The decor was simple and country, and vintage country music was playing. All in all, we would return sometime. We have had better BBQ, but our experience was good enough to try it again.

    Biscuit and gravy
    Martha R.

    Great little spot with a parking lot in the back. Breakfast menu is simple with very good portions. Biscuits were big squares and had several house combinations or a build your own option. With a large party there weren't any issues with service. Breakfast is served until noon. In the afternoons and evenings the menu is BBQ based and would be worth checking out.

    Shrimp & Grits biscuit ...yuuummmm
    Ronald B.

    I was actually blown away by the Shrimp & Grits Biscuit .... I had a friend tell me about that biscuit. I was Leery about how the chef could pull it off , as a biscuit, but it did not disappoint!!! One of my top 3 breakfast dishes I have ever put in my mouth. Everyone was welcoming from hostess to cooks! Made me feel like a regular local & it was my first time !! Can't wait to go back this Friday..

    Paw Paw's Big Breakfast. The huge biscuit was a little dry but overall it was good.

    Breakfast at a barbecue joint in Surfside? You bet. When you walk in the vibe feels like 1800's mountain cabin style with exposed rafters and old sign hanging on the wall. The servers greeted us and took our orders quickly and we received our breakfasts in short order. We both ended up getting Paw Paw's Big Breakfast which included eggs, bacon, a huge biscuit, and a side. I got grits and my wife got hash browns. Outside of the biscuit being a little dry, and the grits coming with cheese (I prefer grits without cheese), it was a good breakfast. The bacon was the standout for me. Huge, thick slices cooked crispy. Prices were reasonable as well. Good choice for breakfast in Surfside.

    Pulled Pork Sandwich with Side Mac & Cheese, Side Fries, side corn bread

    Food was great! Came from Tampa and was really wanting some Carolina BBQ, did not disappoint! Cornbread was amazing. Also loved the apple pie moonshine.

    Half slab with kicking Collards and Cornbread

    Wow I am shocked by the 4.4 rating. No way they are rating the BBQ. Sorry guys but if you are looking for great ribs this is not it. Now service was great, staff was pleasant and fast and everything you want good service to be. The atmosphere was ok small inside but seating outside, problem is some of the chairs are metal weird kid chairs not made for us bigger folks. Now the real deal the food best thing was the appetizer, ordered the Brisket Egg Roll and it was a star can't go wrong BUT honestly should have stopped there. Had the half slab ribs and they were dry and overcooked and tasteless with out sauce. Tried all four sauces they had at table and middle of the road at best. (By the way I know Q). The kicking Greens were not seasoned and basically just collards boiled and bitter. The cornbread I'm sure people like but it's just not cornbread it's freaking Corn Cake (that's a play on cake mix in the cornbread) good for the kids who sit in the little chairs I guess. Now maybe people are eating g other things on the menu and to that I say CHANGE THE NAME, when you have PIG in the name you better be able to cook it!!!! Sorry guys loved the staff but epic fail at a BBQ JOINT

    Ribs, Mac & cheese, and cucumber salad
    Erin M.

    Decent BBQ that hit the spot. We started with the Deviled Eggs and surprisingly the brisket paired nicely. I had the brisket and smoked sausage. Both were delicious. The brisket was so tender. My husband had the ribs and said they were decent. We really like all six of their BBQ sauces. We sat outside and enjoyed the live music from next door. We had good service. Thank you, Caroline!!

    Stumbled upon this tonight for dinner. Not very busy, but we came in late (8pm). Small interior, but cool, rustic atmosphere. Love the industrial, backwoods cabin feel of the joint. Food came quick and service was friendly. Pulled pork and the wings were delicious...but the Brussel sprouts might be one of the best things I've had in a while. They were bangin'!! I would definitely check this out if you are in town. Love little places like this versus some bar full of 20 something's and a lot of loud music. FYI: they do have a bar and adult drinks available. We didn't have any, but they are there.

    Brisket Sandwich and corn bread
    Kat N.

    Great location with very tasty food. I'm impressed by the quality of BBQ! Really loved the brisket sandwich and wings. The pulled pork is a bit dry, but with their provided sauces, it's great. Our favorite was the reaper sauce. The bartender is fantastic. He recommended the heat wave and it was delicious- a little spicy but not overpowering or too sweet.

    Pulled pork with slaw and fries.
    Kevin G.

    The wife and I both chose the, 1 meat 2 sides option for lunch, with pulled pork, we also tried the cucumber salad, a side salad and fried okra. Everything was delicious, but the cucumber salad was a bit too spicy for my wife. Our server "Mitch" was friendly and on point. I recommend Gracious Pig and we'll be back.

    Loc T.

    Hip place with great bbq and drink selections. I ordered the brisket, bbq baked beans, and corn bread. All were very tasty. Also the Sneaky Reaper sauce added a nice mild kick. Great friendly service. The spot is located next to other cool little restaurants and the beautiful pier. San Diego, CA visitor.
