Wiley’s Championship BBQ

There were a couple of restaurants here in Savannah that we will miss quite a bit.  We don’t have equivalents to these at home, and we wish we could box them up and take them with us!  Justin mentioned Leoci’s Trattoria in an earlier post, and we’ve been back several times for their gnocchi – hand’s down, the best we’ve ever had!  But the other spot we will miss exponentially is Wiley’s Championship BBQ.

Inside - really can only fit about 25 people! Also, see that level of sweet tea in my cup? The servers never let it get below that level - they were continually topping it off! And as it was insanely delicious, we didn't mind a bit!

We had stopped here earlier in the week, and immediately knew we would be back again before we left.  Today we drove over for lunch, but also had some pulled pork packed up to go so we could make sandwiches during the SuperBowl tomorrow!

pile of burnt ends

Both times we visited, Justin ordered the Burnt Ends platter.  I’m not sure exactly what show we watched or where we might have read about Burnt Ends first, but we knew we wanted to try them.  And Goodness Gracious, me-oh-my, were they delicious.  Wiley’s also has a perfectly wonderful bbq sauce that, when doused over anything, makes that anything better.

pulled pork and beef brisket sliders - and two pickles (since I gladly took Justin's!)

The first time we went I tried a pulled pork slider and a beef brisket slider.  Both were superb, though the pulled pork was the favorite.

St. Louis-style ribs, with crisp sweet potato fries and crunchy coleslaw

Today I ordered the ribs, which I had read were fantastic.  And they were.  We both agreed they were probably the best ribs we had ever had.  100% perfect.  Plus an extra 10% when you added some of the sauce!

I think this looks quite clearly conveys that Justin was not planning on sharing... :)

And because we were already full, we totally had dessert too.  Banana Pudding and Peanut Butter Pie.  Yes.

Keeping an eye on the guard in the corner!

Time for a nap walk.
