Find out what Barbecue restaurants to try in Isle of Palms. Bordered by pristine beaches and a network of marsh creeks, the barrier island of Isle of Palms has been a vacation spot since the late 19th century when it was only accessible by ferry. In 1929, a bridge was built, which opened up the island to more than just local residents. Today, it’s the island’s great fishing, beaches and golf that provide a few of the magnets for visitors. With a laid-back, easy going, resort lifestyle, the most popular fashion statement is flip-flops and a t-shirt. Isle of Palms is a great place to gear down from a hectic lifestyle.
The magnificent stretch of beach on Isle of Palms is both photogenic and fun. Once you’ve done your obligatory sunbathing and beachcombing at the Isle of Palms County Park Beach, head to nearby Charleston, a 30-minute drive away, which has historic sites, landmarks, shopping districts, golf courses and family attractions like The South Carolina Aquarium and Fountain Walk, a new dining, entertainment and shopping complex nearby.
For golfers, the Wild Dunes Resort on the Isle of Palms features two 18-hole courses designed by Tom Fazio and there are several more excellent layouts on the mainland, including Patriots Point and Charleston National Country Club.

Ate here several years ago. It was just ok this time. We were seated right next to the kitchen on high bar stool type table. This allowed us a view of the kitchen where I witnessed a cook eating while working.The pulled pork was ok and the sauces were tasty. The mac-n-cheese was kind of dry. Also, the tomato and cuke salad was made with grape tomatoes. Maybe they ran out of fresh tomatoes? Not sure.Our waitress was nice and friendly and we were served fast so that is good. It wasn't crowded.Not sure if we will return the next time we are in the area.

My family ate here during our trip. We ordered everything from pork rinds to totchos tp burgers to bbq. Everyone was happy with their food. The Elvis dessert with a skillet cookie covered in peanut butter and banana and a scoop of ice cream was delicious. It did take a little while for the service specifically getting some of the food and our bills, but that is expected with such a large group. I read other reviews before eating here and was a little nervous, but Billy G's outperformed my expectations and delivered.

Ribs. Pork. Chicken. Brisket. Hell, even sausage. All BBQ has the same three basic ingredients: smoke, meat and time. What makes it different is the amount, consideration and attention to each part of that recipe. That, and some really great bbq sauce, to

I often eat at the Jim N Nicks near home, so knew we would not go wrong having dinner here.I feel so cheated...by the location near home as this location in Mount Pleasant dances circles around the home location. The brisket was so much more moist and flavorful as was the turkey....almost to the point to where I wonder how the quality can be so different given they are the same chain. I thought my local store was good....but this one...great. Only downside is that the woman working the drive through decided to reprimand me for using the drive through citing my order was too big (two dinner plates, two desserts, two drinks, and a pound of brisket) and the next time to come in...that is not the purpose of the drive through for "big orders."Despite her chastisement, I will still give five stars for the brisket alone.

While traveling down South, we thought that BBQ should be part of the experience. We found Sticky Fingers on the Internet. It was nearby and looked quite good. We got there a little before 6 p.m. and realized we were there in time for Happy Hour--a nice plus. We were seated in the bar area and the bartender was also our waiter. He was very friendly, welcoming and accommodating. My wife ordered a salad with pulled pork. The serving was huge. The salad fixings were fresh and crisp and the mound of pulled pork was substantial. The also have 5-6 bottles of assorted BBQ sauces on the table, so she could flavor the pork to her liking. I had the 2 meat dinner with pulled pork and ribs with 2 sides. I chose hush puppies and sweet potato casserole. Again, the portions were huge. I think the ribs were among the best I've ever had. They were meaty and the meat fell off the bone. The pulled pork was tasty & tender and I got to sample all the sauces on the table. My wife helped me eat the hush puppies and they were fantastic. The sweet potato casserole was laced with pecans and brown sugar--another winner. We were stuffed and the bill was quite reasonable. If we're ever back in the area, we will seek it out!This is awesome! Thank you for the great review and kind words about our staff! We do our best every day to bring the freshest and highest quality smoked bbq to every table, so it warms our hearts to hear we haven't lost our touch. Thank you so much for stopping in. Can't wait until next time!
