Recent Mastications

Included here are the Italian Sandwich from Baldino's, Cheesesteak sandwich from Mellow Mushroom in Statesboro, a real sugar Dr. Pepper, the worst bagel & lox I have ever gotten from Einstein's (notice only one little piece of lox on each half), a Bison Burger & Rings from Crystal Beer Parlor in Savannah, a Orange & Pineapple shake from Tradewinds in Tybee Island, a onion and mushroom quesadilla, and some wings from Fresh Market.

Another Tasty Meal from Driftaway Cafe

This really has become one of our favorite places to eat at and that is just what we did Saturday night. The crab dip is great and we substituted the bread for the fried wonton tortilla chips. These things are amazing and go better with this dip than the bread does. I then tried the Grouper sandwich and this was very good as well. I actually had a tough time finishing it because the sandwich was so huge. I would gladly order this again!

Sunday Night Grilling

The Portobello's were marinated in some balsamic, rosemary, thyme, garlic, pepper, oregano, and basil. They were then grilled up and loaded with crumbled blue cheese, which then was melted to perfection. The chicken was just some more of Nellie & Joe's Mojo marinated chicken. I am addicted to the Nellie & Joe's product line. You can sometimes find it in Publix or Fresh Market, but here is their website: http://www.keylimejuice.com/ Everything was then washed down with plenty of Bell's Brewery Oberon Ale.

The Pit Stop Bar-B-Q & Catering Express

This place is just what it looks like, a hole in the wall joint. The Pit Stop is owned by a couple that are just down home southern pleasant and put all their love into their food. Sweet tea is made in giant pots on the stove top. You can see the pic of the kitchen which is as basic and old fashioned as it gets. The pork, ribs, and chicken are all smoked out back. There are a couple of picnic tables outside on the porch and inside there is just a counter to sit at with a few open spots. The decor is just old knick knacks like die cast race cars, books, and family military memorabilia. The food was very good and the pork and sauce had a flavor that is unique to The Pit Stop. I enjoyed my lunch there and will gladly go back for more of the food and the atmosphere.

UGA vs Buffs...At least the food was good.

Another week of good eating spoiled by a crappy loss. Like I said, at least the food was good. Also, the beer was cold. Another plus in my book. As for the menu:

Jerk Pork Tenderloin, Key Lime Chicken, Cucumber-Tomato-Onion salad, my special baked beans, 7 layer bean dip with chips, Neufchatel Cheese & Dill Puff, Chex-Mix, Variety of Beer, and Ghirardelli Chocolate Brownies plus a whole bunch of chocolate chips.

Lunch at The Original Smoke Station

They now have a lunch buffet, so I tried it out today for lunch. Tons of pulled pork, cole slaw potato salad, and baked beans with pulled pork. There was also sausage, fried fish, bbq chicken, and green beans on the buffet.
