The Pig Bar-B-Que (Callahan, FL)



Kyle's Order: Beef Brisket w/ baked beans and fries.
Doop's Order: Beef Brisket w/ baked beans and coleslaw

Kyle's Take: The Pig Bar-B-Que is where it all began. The Pig will always hold a special place in my heart because it ended a 6 hour BBQ craving that started in Augusta, GA. and was not relinquished until we entered a small town in north Florida called Callahan. The huge red fluorescent sign gleamed in the night like a heavenly BBQ oasis. You really had to be there to experience it in all its majesty. Anyway, the food was kind of a blur because I scarfed it down so quickly, however the portions were pretty generous for the price. The also have a TV playing which was nice.

Doop's Take: We almost did not find this place. Kyle and I were about to give up after 6 hours of searching and head to The Huddle House, but alast, with some help we were able to find The Pig Bar-B-Que. It's located in a tiny strip mall so it's a little hard to spot, especially at night, but the large neon sign will guide you into the resturant. Once inside, the smell of barbeque greets you. Service was good, but from what i remembered, a little slow. The food was good, and the sweet tea was very good. All in all, the 6 hours voyage for barbeque could not have ended at a better place.

Kyle's Beef's: The beef on the brisket was a little too juicy so it made the bun all soggy.
Doop's Beef's: The bun was really soggy, the coleslaw tasted a little plain and the service was a little slow
Kyle's Rating: 7/10
Doop's Rating: 7/10
