After spending time buying plants at Moose Crossing our friend recommended Gator’s for lunch. Wow, what a wonderful discovery! We had pulled pork. I couldn’t …
Grant is the owner of Gator’s Deep South BBQ, which opened last week at 603 Main St. in Damariscotta, the spot formerly occupied by Mr. Ribs.

I’m new to the area and have been wanting to try this BBQ (because I’m from the south!) but wasn’t sure if they were open. They were! The owner told me he wanted to see how it went during the winter- but that it didn’t go well. This was one of the best BBQ sandwiches I’ve ever had! The pulled pork sandwich was huge, the tots were so good and it came out super quick! I will definitely be back!!!

Absolutely cannot recommend enough. We got five meals and it was done in less than half an hour, the food was very effectively packaged so it was still warm after driving it a half hour back home. Everything was delicious, the meat was cooked really well. The man running it was really kind and the food was very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommending checking this place out if you like barbecue. Here’s a picture of the brisket that we got our dad for Father’s Day!

Almost missed it driving by, but so glad we didn’t! This is some of the best pulled pork I’ve had. Easily the best tots I’ve had. This is a don’t miss meal!

I try to live without regrets but failed today. Have wanted to hit this place for brisket for a while and now I regret all the days I didn’t go. Best brisket I have ever eaten. HUGE portion. Great sides. Sauce is fantastic. Feel good about supporting a veteran-owned business too. Huge win today and will go back very soon to make up for lost days!

Proprietor Christian Grant knows what goes into making a good BBQ. The all day menu includes Hot Dogs, Hamburgers/Cheeseburgers, Pulled Pork (my favorite), and Cuban Sandwiches all with tots. After 4 he brings out the rib and brisket dinners. I might complain that these dinners are not available until 4, but then some things are just worth the wait.

Two of us split the BBQ ribs for dinner. The ribs were outstanding. The meat fell off the bone. A wonderful smokey delicious flavor. The baked beans and cole slaw were delicious sides! Highly recommend. Next time we’ll try the brisket.

Huge portion sizes and a great price. Pulled pork wasn’t very flavorful, but still good. I wish I could have tried the brisket, but that isn’t served until after 4pm. Overall this place was a great find and I would definitely go back!
