I love their BBQ and stew! When possible on our trips through Georgia we stop in Jackson and buy multiple pounds of meat to freeze since we live far away. It keeps well frozen in the containers and makes wonderful BBQ topped potatoes. The staff is always helpful and courteous and thank us for our business. We always enjoy our visits to Fresh Air.
