The sliced brisket sandwich was piled high with tender delicious brisket. Loved the spicy sauce and the side of mac and cheese was also delicious. We got takeout of smoked turkey, baked beans and potato salad. What a dinner! The turkey was phenomenal as were the sides. I only wish they weren't 1000 miles away.

Looking from the parking lot I wasn't sure, but once I entered the premises I knew the place would at least be a fun experience. They have indoor and outdoor dining, a stage , a fountain to wash hands after some awesome tasting BBQ. That is saying a lot for me, who isn't the biggest fan of BBQ. ( I was hoping for fried liver, but was wowed by the great meal I chose!) I had the Holy Trinity, which had amazing Boston butt with baked beans and coleslaw. My side was southern comfort food: collard greens. The Boston butt was aromatic with the smoking that was done to it & tender. It had no need for any additional BBQ sauce as the baked beans added wonderful flavor topped with the crunchiness of a creamy coleslaw! Heaven in your mouth! The collard greens were a perfect addition. What I loved about the greens is they had some smoky (bacon) taste but it wasn't overpowering and salty like I've had at some places. It was just right and the perfect side to the meal. I found the portion just right for the weary traveler I was that day. The waitress was efficient and helpful in making a decision as to what to get. The ambiance was rustic country with families coming in for their dinners. The fountain they use for washing hands was a cute touch. And I even got to enjoy some live music before I left on a weeknight no less! And by the way the music was enjoyable as it wasn't blasting but added to the quaint ambience this place offers its customers. A definite need to go back there!

Luckily there was a space heater right next to us to provide warmth. The outdoor seating had big heaters too, but they were reluctant to turn those on. The place had a really laid-back, country ambiance, like you would imagine a bbq joint to have. There were rolls of paper towels at the tables and your food comes in a plastic tray lined with aluminum foil and some plastic silverware. I had the centercut rib meal specifically because it comes with two sides and I wanted baked-beans and collard greens. The collards were but big unlike the chopped stuff I've had in the past and were good. The baked-beans were also good and I ate most of those too. The ribs (two) looked beautiful with the bark seasoning and they tasted good too. The meal came with some bread that did not taste good and I didn't want to eat all of it. The sweet tea was fabulous and you get free refills and already comes in a styrofoam to-go cup for the win. The service was excellent. The two younger waitresses were very nice, attentive, and helpful. No problems there. We learned from them that there is live music many nights during the week in the evening from around 5-6pm to close (I think around 9pm) Although I had a great experience at Captain Stan's, I unfortunately cannot say that the food is life-changing, which is what I am looking for with BBQ. The prices were fair and the portions were more than adequate. *tip - they offer a military discount.

We were off to agood start as I am particular about my tea. This made the cut. Their are little games on the table similar to the ones at Old Country Buffet. We ordered the Shredded Chicken Cheddar Bombs for an appetizer. They came with ranch dip. The bombers were crisp on the outside, hot and tender. (spoiler alert: these turn out to be the highlight of our meal). Then we ordered the Black River Platter to share for dinner. It is 3 meats and 3 sides. You actually get 3 of each side you pick for a total of 9 sides. Here we go........ Brunswick stew - cold, tomatoey and bland Beans - good flavor and hot. Very similar to Bush's Brown Sugar Baked Beans Okra - hot but.nothing special. We dipped it in ranch Ribs - dry, tough and unseasoned. I only ate one. I used their sweet sauce that tasted like Sweet Baby Rays. I also used their honey mustard sauce(at least that is what it tasted like to me. They had two other vinegar based sauces as well, and my husband enjoyed them. Brisket - juicy, but that's it. It was almost completely charred fat. Turkey - cold and dry and flavorless(keep your sweet tea close) Garlic bread - good bread with a faint shake of garlic powder on it We left disappointed, but have enough to share with at least 3 homeless people(if they want it).

After a long, tough day at work, I got home and told my wife we should end the week with a nice…read moredinner out. Options here in Callahan are pretty limited and exhausted. I remembered a new BBQ place I saw in Folkston, so we headed out to try their flavors. As we neared the restaurant, I looked down Main St for a parking spot. The first couple of drive-bys didn't work out. I thought to myself, "This might be a good thing." We walked in and immediately noticed how simple the place was. My Self and I had another moment when he said, "It is simple because their focus is on the food," which seemed to make sense. We were greeted warmly and seated promptly. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. I even noticed that the entire staff looked young -- or, if I may say so, high school-aged. We ordered based on our server's suggestions. We started with the Chicken Bombs, which were tasty. The sweet tea was well-made, with good flavor and not overly sweet. Our platter arrived. Keep in mind that this is Dry Rub BBQ, so the seasoning in the dry rub should complement the meat and be strong enough that no sauce is needed. Well, buckle up, buttercup, because the truth might hurt, and I hope this is taken as constructive criticism. The Good: Our server The chicken bombs resemble crab Rangoon, and the flavor was good. The baked beans--I was looking around to see if Duke from Bush's was going to pop up somewhere. The fried okra was good, but then again, it's not rocket science to open a bag of frozen okra and fry it. THE BAD: Let's talk Turkey: It's like the turkey spent its whole life in the Sahara practicing for dehydration Olympics. It was so dry that it made the Sahara Desert jealous, and take notes. One bite and your mouth feels like you've been chewing cardboard left in the sun for three Thanksgivings. It's so parched that the gravy boat is basically performing CPR on every slice. This turkey could star in a Western: "The Driest Gun in the West." "It's just a little dry... but anything tastes good with enough gravy!" The Ribs: The ribs seem as if they were mummified in the smoker and then reheated with regret. These ribs are so dry they're almost like beef jerky that got lost on the way to flavor town. They're drier than polite small talk at a family BBQ after someone brings up politics. Chew on this, and you'll see why cowboys carried canteens. Pure survival mode kicked in. The Brisket: The BBQ tragedy where the smoke ring was perfect, but the moisture said "peace out" hours ago. The fat cap was the only thing that saved this from being a complete disaster. The Brunswick Stew: first bite sets the tone. The cold temperature was off-putting; it was clearly not in the same vicinity as the baked beans. If they were, I'm sure they were jealous or just preparing for an Arctic blast. Reality is the best teacher, and experience lays the foundation for improvement. Pit boss, please taste your creations before serving the public. If you don't like them, I can assure you, we will let you know.
