One of the things I look forward to when traveling to/through BFE is the oppty to stop into hole in…read morethe wall BBQ joint and sampling what's on the menu. Just so happens I was in Dawson and well, the pickings are pretty slim so it's not surprise this place jumped out at me immediately. The name is certainly no lie, it literally looks like a (rundown) farmhouse off the side of the main (?) road through town. Parking is plentiful, assuming you don't mind parking on unpaved and uneven ground. Certainly wasn't an issue the day I visited but I can imagine it'd be a pain if it were raining. Inside there appeared to be plenty of tables inside, along with a couple high tops and an odd bar type space to the right. Ordering was most pretty straight forward, and the girl taking my order was happy to point out the things they didn't have that day (brisket and a host of sides). Regardless, still a pretty decent lineup to order from including ribs, chicken and pork, along with some crazier options I didn't spring for (turkey leg and frog legs!). I ended up getting the rib plate and added a few extra bones, which they were quite accommodating on and just asked how many more I wanted. Taste wise they were quite good, great smoke, pretty meaty and I made quick work of them all. I elected for beans and potato salad for my sides, and while the beans were forgettable, the potato salad was pretty good. The sauce was ok, nothing too fancy and just a basic sauce that I ended up adding a bit of hot sauce to. All in all, a pretty solid place in the middle of nowhere. Don't know when, if ever, I'll be back but I wouldn't hesitate to drop back in again.

I ordered the Hog-N-Slaw sandwich and a pint of the HNB Stew (basically their version of Brunswick stew). Whenever I'm in Georgia, I always look forward to a good, hearty Brunswick stew. The sandwich came with pulled pork, slaw, Texas toast, and BBQ sauce. Unfortunately, the pork was dry and looked like it had been sitting awhile, and I ended up throwing most of it away. The stew was okay -- not great, not terrible -- just somewhere in the middle. On the positive side, the staff was very friendly, which I appreciated. But if you're passing through and hoping for that standout, must-try BBQ spot, this isn't it.

Keith-a-cue, is less than a mile off the highway and so worth the time. Got the perfectly smoked pork butt sandwich, my friends got the pork butt plate and another got the shredded pork plate. Both got okra - get the okra. Their fried okra is about as good as it gets. And the pulled pork butt is so perfect, don't mess around, get it. The place really is a hole-in-the-wall - literally - you order at a window in an outside wall. They hand you your drinks and then bring your food to you in the adjacent, spotlessly clean and comfortable dining room. This was exactly the place we hoped it would be when we pulled off the highway. If you are headed to Florida or returning from there and drive through South Georgia on I-75 plan a stop in historic Ashburn. You will thank me. And you will thank Keith for the amazing smoked pork butt and okra. Yum.
