A Look Back
Real Southern cooking, down a country road
Out on Story Mill Road in Keysville, Country Boys Cooking was the kind of place worth the drive. It served up honest, down-home Southern country cooking and barbecue — slow-cooked ribs, tender pulled pork, classic Georgia hash over rice, and rotisserie chicken, all rounded out with the kind of soulful sides that make a Southern plate complete. It was country cooking the way it's meant to be: generous, comforting and full of flavor.
For the folks around Keysville and the greater Augusta area, it was a beloved spot to gather, eat well and feel at home. While the restaurant appears to have closed, the memory of those plates lives on.
