CLOSED - OUT OF BUSINESS - ???…read more Based upon the recent positive reviews regarding their food, I decided to try this place when I stopped over in Macon. They are located around 10 minutes outside of downtown, and it appeared to be an economically challenged area. It was a little challenging to find at first, because I didn't realize that it was simply a small building where you could order from the walk up window or through the drive-through. According to their hours online, they stay open until 9 PM. When I arrived, the place was closed. I called the phone number on the sign, and there was an out of service message. I was definitely disappointed, because I definitely wanted to try their barbecue. All signs suggested that they are now out of business. Maybe next time...

AN EXPERIENCE NOT JUST A MEAL…read more This place is located in a kind of seedy downtown area of Macon. We walked in and the vibe throughout the place won me over instantly. When the staff seem to enjoy their jobs and working with each other as well, chances are you have a winner. We were seated immediately in a cozy booth with floor to ceiling graffiti. The place just oozed character! We were told that at times in the loft above our heads they had live music FYI. The waitress was friendly and on point. We never found ourselves waiting to order or for drinks, etc. The food was great. We started with the solid gold soul rolls which were tasty. I'd say 2-3 people for this app. My wife had the hot pig and fig which she enjoyed. She wanted something a little light and it was perfect for her. I ordered the Dr John Burger. The cook forgot my bacon . No bueno. Our waitress was game and was quick to bring me bacon to complete the burger. It was well cooked and the flavors were excellent so all was good. Our companion enjoyed her food as well. We all left full and happy. And, yes I would return and I recommend trying them yourself.

We started with the fried green tomatoes, which were a great appetizer--crispy, flavorful, and a nice way to kick things off. For our entrées, we had the fish and chips and the smoked turkey sandwich. The fish had a nice crispy batter, and the smoked turkey sandwich was tasty and satisfying. My only disappointment was the fries. They were a bit soggy and lacked the crispiness I was hoping for, especially with the fish and chips. A crisp, hot fry would have taken the meal to the next level. Overall, the food was good, the atmosphere was enjoyable, and I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

What I just ate at Satterfields was up there with the best of anything I've had. I didn't get to try my go to, the brisket, as they had already sold out but I got to try the pulled pork and the chicken wings and WOW. The pulled pork was good enough to not need any sauces. The chicken wings were out of this world. I got them dry with sauces in the side and these too were perfect and didn't need sauce either. I did want to try all of their sauces though and got them on the side. Every single sauce was phenomenal. The vinegar sauce was perfect with the pulled pork and wasn't an overly strong vinegar, honestly one of the best vinegar sauces I've had and I live in Eastern NC. It's a crying shame this place is only open 11-2. The two folks working when I came in were super nice and helpful. I'm assuming the man I spoke to was the owner and he was very appreciative of my business. If I lived within 30 minutes of this place I'd be here every single week. CARNIVORE APPROVED

Anyways, I'm glad I finally made it in to check things out. On my first visit I snagged a half-chicken, some fried Mac and cheese balls and a breakfast sandwich. All were stellar. On my latest visit I got their pulled pork mojo special which was nicely done, along with two quarter chickens-dark. Staff has been super friendly on each visit and the place is spotless. Getting to-go is quick and only has taken a few minutes which is great since their hours are confined to 11a-2p.

DON'T BOTHER!…read more Stopped by based on the ratings on Yelp. Not a very inviting atmosphere but with barbecue, you don't expect the place to be shining and spotless. We had the 2 chicken dinners and they were 1/2 chickens and were just tasteless, bland, and had never been on a grill. No smoke flavor, no seasoning of any kind-just bland chicken. Tasted like it was boiled a day or two ago. Don't know how anyone could consider this barbecue. Service was good but the poor product more than offset the service. Unless you like boiled chicken, don't waste your time!
