My BBQ Haven: The GA Pig is Closed

 Check out Star Shaped Press on Etsy for old-fashioned letterpress prints!


My husband and I are avid BBQ connoisseurs! We found the Georgia Pig about 5 years back and have been going there ever since. The location was a convenient right off of I95 location on the way to Florida. We also are frequenters of Jekyll Island, which GA Pig was right down the road from. Quite frankly the GA Pig was the only decent eatery around. Jekyll Island has your standard fare. Pizza, Americana, and seafood. All Average choices. My husband and I are food snobs! You go to Jekyll Island for the gorgeous scenery and The Georgia Sea Turtle Center, which is awesome!

Jekyll Island is really an afterthought on this post. My family and I were driving down to Florida yesterday. We always make a pit stop at the Ga Pig before our final push into Florida. To my shock and horror there was yellow tape around the GA Pig. It was closed. We read on the roadfood.com that the GA Pig lost their lease and it will be a Gas Station soon. This family was in business for four decades and is truly a tragedy for all BBQ lovers everywhere!
