Here is the perfect order: two-meat sampler with pulled pork and brisket , Brunswick stew and mac & cheese ; burnt end sandwich ; coleslaw side, fried green beans side; Fried Oreos . And beers .

Dilbert Fairwell

This place is amazing and ridiculous. I could drown in a pile of meat here and die happy. Get the stew , get the pulled pork , or close your eyes and point to anything on the menu. So good.

Sandro Pugliese

Make sure to go for Prime Rib Fridays as it's the best thing on the menu (sandwich or plate & don't forget the au jus). Ribs & pulled pork were very good. Spicy & Sweet sauce was heavenly.

Eater

Out of the myriad versions of Brunswick stew across Georgia, the nuanced take at Southern Soul stands out. At special events , the cooks go old-school and even add smoked squirrel. Read more

Best BBQ I’ve ever had. Been all over - Texas, Nashville, etc. Southern Soul is the best. Got the pulled pork , brisket , slaw , Mac n cheese , brisket chili , Brunswick stew . GET THE COBBLER please.

Jorge Machaen

I had the 1/2 slab and it didn't disappoint. Hot Georgia Soul is ????????! My girl had a pulled pork sandwich with a side of Mac and cheese and fried okra .

Don Simanoff

Great food. Place is small with little indoor eating space. Great food. Place is a bit sumptuous and had flies but food was really good. Oh yeah, hard to park but great food. All in all, I'd go back.

Caroline Mueller

Brisket with fried green beans and Mac and cheese ! Brunswick stew was killer. All four BBQ sauces were awesome, but Sweet Georgia Soul was my favorite. I and my two friends each bought a bottle of it!

Carolina

AMAZING! Got the pulled pork which was great. All the BBQ sauces were good but the Sweet GA Soul was so good I bought a bottle. Next time I will definitely try the ribs , they looked super tasty.

Lindsay Williams

Very good food! The BBQ is amazing. The staff is friendly .

Milán Kiss-Puskár

Very good food, I recommend the Soul burger with extra cheese and bacon . Oh, and thank you for the plus coke !:)

Dakoda Neilson

Southern Soul Sandwich , for 6 bucks its a lot of food and you cant go wrong for a quick bit. This is also a hot spot for the pilots that fly to St. Simons.

Diners boast that it's the best BBQ they have ever tasted! A few must-order menu items are the brunswick stew , hoppin' john and smoked turkey .

Will Wilson

Try the brisket . You can't go wrong with whatever you chose. Ignore the uppity rich people on vacation and eat with your hands!

This is a must have in St. Simons! While they boast the best brunswick stew around, guests say the fried green beans are amazing as well !

Valerie Bogle

Morgan Watson

Ryan Moran

Leroyia Armstrong

I loved this place. U can smell the food before u even get close to place. I would eat here again.

Connie Rosser

We had pulled pork plates and they were awesome.

Martin Lawrence

Get the Burnt Ends . Amazing smoke rings with caramelized apple juice character.

Susan Buchanan

It would be nice if they had fans going in the picnic tables area it was hot and buggy which detracted from the good food

Paul G

It's all great here, the problem is deciding what to have each time I come here!

Bobby Roe

The meats were terrific, but the sauces weren't to my liking. I'm not a fan of mustard , and the sauces have this as a major flavor component. The vinegar-based sauce was okay. I prefer sweeter sauce.

Erin Nourie

Brunswick Stew is amazing! Loved the pulled pork with Sweet Georgia Soul sauce.

Sherman Burroughs

Great Pork butt... good Brunswick stew . Very impressed with both beer and soft drink selection...

Michael

Every dang thing is excellent here! Pulled pork and collard greens are my fave.

Try the Philly Soul sandwich . Sit at the counter inside and enjoy the A/C and the hospitality of their service crew.

Anna Italiano

You HAVE to go if you're in the area. Absolute best bbq I've ever had!!

Fran Hauser

Brian Pieragostini

Everything is amazing! Best BBQ around if your here you must stop in.

Stasch Kuras

Best bbq I've ever had was at a gas station , Oklahoma Joe's. How can I not want to eat here? These guys use old school outdoor smokers, wood only. Watch it on TripleD

Jana Lindsey

I found a curly black hair in the middle of my pulled pork plate, I have blonde hair... I took it back inside and they quickly got me a new plate.

Drew Nixon

Best BBQ I have had. Well worth the 90 min drive

Jana Lindsey

Sauces are mustardy, hot mustardy, or red wine vinaigrette , not my thing. Mac & cheese isn't my fav either. This place is famous, but I'd go somewhere else. Waitresses are rude if you are pretty.

John Garrett

The Beef Briskets it will make your tongue slap your brain to get more it so good.

Jarrad Holbrook
