I had the ODB Brisket sandwich and the brisket was just divine! All the toppings- house pimento cheese, pickled red onion, and white BBQ sauce, blended well with the sliced brisket. My husband had the chicken sandwich and was very happy with how tender the chicken was. We each had a side and shared them. I had the Street corn esquite style and my husband chose the mac n cheese. Both were very tasty! We were enjoying eating our sandwiches so much that I forgot to take pictures of them! We were full (stuffed). BUT, Cora, who was running the place, making sure everything was in order and served promptly, told us about her specialty margaritas and made us one. Wow, was it DELICIOUS! We wanted it spicy so it came locked and loaded with jalapeño infused tequila and tajin on the rim. With the nice foam layer on the top and the combination of every ingredient in the cocktail, along with the presentation, just blew us away! 100% YUMMY! There are other variations to choose from too. We HIGHLY recommend this restaurant for those who love bbq and definitely recommend it to those who don't know yet if they like bbq but want to try and see what it's about. 6 stars out of 5 for a great lunch or dinner!

I…read morehave thought for 20 years that Gary Lee's had the best BBQ here but they slide in to 2nd place, barely. The Texas Twinkie is awesome and their ribs might be the best I've had anywhere. The brisket rub was a little too salty for my taste and the bark was a little bitter, but I'm nitpicking. Could have just been off a little this weekend or because it was take-out. The red BBQ sauce is unique and very tasty, a little heat, a little sweet, and vinegar tang. The vibe is also cool. I will definitely be back!

Went here for late lunch / early dinner on a weekend in the winter. The place is interesting…read morebecause there were no windows and the breeze was blowing through the building. 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.

This is the real deal: a classic roadhouse with truly excellent barbecue. To make it even better…read morethere was a very good band "Midwest Riders" playing that night, playing mostly country from the 70s-80s, switching to rock with an emphasis of the southern genre on the second set. And a few of their own songs too, which were pretty good too. All the way from Michigan of all places. The specialty here is the ribs. They are heavily smoked with a substantial dark bark. Great flavor, tender, and meaty. They're served without a sauce; just the dry rub is sufficient. (Maybe there was sauce available on the side but I didn't ask.) The rib plate is a serving of 2 ribs with a choice of 2 sides. Also sliced pickled banana peppers, a nice touch. I thought 2 might not be enough so I upgraded to the half rack (5 ribs) and ate 3 and saved 2 for later. They were quite large so I probably could have made do with 2. My sides were collard greens and potato salad. The collards were kind of ordinary, but the potato salad? Wow, almost as good as my wife's, who makes the best! Potatoes not cooked down to mush, not too mayonnaisey, tangy, peppery, and crunchy from diced peppers. Good portion sizes for the sides too. No corn bread or hush puppies, unfortunately. Other barbecue items include chicken and Boston Butt. The menu makes it harder to order these as a meal (a la carte only for some reason) but it can be done. Also chili, peel&eat shrimp, oysters (when available locally) and a few things for non-barbecue lovers. I sat at the outside bar where I could easily take in the scene: the band on the stage, the cheerful warm fire in the center throwing sparks and a pleasant smoky aroma, the patrons, many of whom were in costume on this Halloween night, kids dancing to the music (surprisingly no adults), and dogs all over the place running amok and having a great time too. Speaking of the bar: don't expect craft beers or gourmet drinks here; it's all generic national brands. I had an Angry Orchard, a pretty bad cider from New York. Lingering a while to listen to the music I eventually finished with a slice of key lime pie. Adorned with nothing more than whipped cream from a can and a slice of lime it was nevertheless surprisingly good. 5 stars so far. Normally I give a pass on bad restrooms, especially in a place like this, but in this case, sadly they lost a star. I heard somebody mention the men's room needed attention and 10 minutes later I wanted to use it and found a toilet filled to overflowing, the floor soaked with water and presumably other liquids. Surprisingly no urinal (yes I was in the right room for my gender). So I decided to "hold it" and just washed my hands, getting enough soap from the nearly empty dispenser. A half hour later when I visited again the toilet was fixed and the floor mostly dry but the soap dispenser was completely empty. Isn't that something they would check at the same time they fixed the clog? This wouldn't stop me from coming back, but I sure hope the kitchen staff has access to better facilities!

First stop our youngest wasn't hungry, second because I wanted the naner pudding after we'd walked around a bit and third because our little lady got hungry around 8pm. The chicken fingers are unbelievable! Top five I've ever had. Be mindful that the heat level scale very quickly. Plain is a zero one to ten and the next step up is a solid 6. Banana pudding was disappointing. Maybe I got a bad scoop? But it was all bread. Didn't really feel the pudding unless we're talking about like a bread pudding. This place was awesome! Definitely worth a visit if you're in the Saint Simons Island area.
