Maple's

Santee Cooper Country

Santee Cooper Country
Don't look for a sign, because there isn't one pointing to this no frills establishment. Maple's is a little off the beaten path, and it's popular among the locals. The take-out only barbecue joint serves its smoky 'cue with a spicy, red vinegar pepper sauce. Buy the barbecue by the pound or just order a sandwich. Maple's serves finger-licking, fall-off-the-bone ribs, too.

Be sure to bring cash; Maple's does not accept credit or debit cards.
