"My wife and I were in Charleston for the weekend, and though we typically enjoy seafood when we are there, we decided to try Poogan's smokehouse, since we had previously enjoyed our experience at Poogan's Porch a number of years ago. My wife had pulled pork, collard greens, and brussel sprouts. I had pulled pork, ribs, blackeyed pea salad and collard greens. Both of us enjoyed the pulled pork. It had a nice smokey flavor and was not overly seasoned. Available sauces were spicy vinegar, mustard sauce, and a tomato based sauce (with some mustard sauce). All of these sauces were very good, though I am partial to the mustard and vinegar based sauces, but the pulled pork was very good with no sauce. The ribs were very tender, but they were far too salty for my taste, and the salt overwhelmed the rest of the dry rub seasoning. The collards were tender with a mild vinegar and sweet flavor. The brussel sprouts were well seasoned and cooked with bacon. The blackeyed pea salad was served cold with cherry tomatoes mixed in, and if there was a sauce used, it was hardly noticeable, with the blackeyed pea flavor being very present. The staff was very friendly, and our server was engaging and attentive to drinks and very available if something was needed. The only disappointment was the salty ribs, but I would recommend overall, as the pulled pork was very good, as well as the sides, and the service staff."
