On the Road

KSU at 0730. The only practical way out of Florida is I-95 but once into Georgia, I ran up US17 for a bit when the interstate got a little boring. Rolled into Santee SC around 315, just a little bit after passing KevinK( the trailer queen) on the highway
A short nap and I'm ready to chow down on some BBQ




MAURICE'S BBQ

 First impression- OK, it looks like a fast food joint, not much traffic for being right off the interstate. No smoker pouring out whiffs of smoke, but it got good reviews so I'll try it

I got the large rib dinner ($14.95). Comes with 5 large ribs, hash with rice, 2 hushpuppies, slaw and a roll
 Not much for presentation. The ribs have a mustard based sauce, not fresh from a smoker for sure. A little dry. I added some hot sauce to spice it a little..\ The hash was a shredded pork over rice, actually not too bad. Hush puppies rather standard type fare and the roll out of a bag

Presentation- C
Food- B-
Price - B

 Good Q should always be right from a smoker. The lack of a visible smoker says these were probably cooked off site and kept in a steamer
The verdict This place looks like fast food and it is
Just goes to show you can;t believe everything you read Supposedly, these are supposed to be state champs, not in my humble opinion PASS ON THIS ONE

OK KSU at 730 after breakfast 375 miles to the Burg

Ending mileage 81843
