I love this place and we eat here all the time, but our last visit included dried out brisket and overcooked mushy corn on the cob. I was horribly disappointed. The Brunswick stew was great and the pulled pork also terrific, but I have never had a bad meal there until this past trip. I hope it was just an... More

My family and I really enjoy good BBQ and this place has some REALLY good BBQ! It's a small hole-in-the-wall place with southern charm. Don't be fooled by the exterior of the place...it's a great place to eat, I promise!

The barbecue is very good. The pulled pork is my favorite. the ribs come unsauced , smoked or boiled I think, but they are really tasty. The place isn't much, very small and connected to a gas station, which almost turned me away. I decided to order to go. My only complaint is their prices are pretty high, almost too... More

My wife and I enjoyed a delicious dinner. I had bbq ribs and they were wonderful as were the potatoes and slaw. I did make the mistake of getting the "all you can eat" ribs, because, predictably, I ate too much. Had I ordered just a regular plate of ribs, I would have had plenty of food. But the "all... More

My husband and i just ate from the Smokin Pig three days ago and it was delicious. The ribs just fell off the bone and the pork was tender and juicy. The only coplaint we had was that the baked potatoes were a little hard and the cole slaw was just ok. Would definitely eat here again.

We travel to N Florida from upstate SC often to visit family. Our meals along the way are always from fast food places. But today we happened upon a great BBQ restaurant just off exit 87 in Richmond Hill GA. In my opinion the true test of a good BBQ joint is their sides. You can perfect pulled pork, smoked... More

Just did a crazy road trip of 5000km with family going to Florida so looking for stops along the way to have a fast lunch. This was our best "road meal" of the trip. Great BBQ pulled pork with different sauces, friendly fast service and communal tables. Highly recommended by everyone in our family of five from 11-51 yrs old.

If you like BBQ, you will enjoy the smoking pig.. This is a real casual kind of neighborhood place, but if you are traveling and want a quick mean its close by several motels/hotels. A little set back from the road so ask directions

At exit 87, in a strip of shops behind the BP station, is the Smokin Pig, a great little BBQ place. The interior is small, having only 6 tables, but the menu is large with a variety of BBQed meat choices. Prices are reasonable; regular sandwiches start at $4.25 and add $1 for each additional side. Pork, beef, and chicken... More

A small unassuming operation, this eatery was recommended by locals. A steady stream of local customers, as well as other travellers, came for "eat in" and "take away" while we were there. This is real southern BBQ - tasty dishes, and awesome hospitality that beat "the chains" hands down.
