In 2017, it was also featured in Southern Living among “The South’s Best BBQ of 2017.″
Love Food talked about how Southern Soul’s building used to be a gas station in the 1950s. Now, the publication wrote, “instead of gas, servers dispense tender beef, pork, turkey, and wild game to devoted customers and lucky passers-by every day.”
Southern Soul Barbecue is located at 2020 Demere Road on St. Simons Island. It’s open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day except Tuesday.
