Slow and Low Barbecue

Space Coast


After a day on the beach, nothing satisfies better than a plate overflowing with barbecue ribs, fried okra, turnip greens and sweet fried potatoes. There's a daily happy hour and live music Thursday through Sunday. A second location opened recently on Stadium Pkwy in Rockledge, south of Cocoa Village.
