This roadside eatery near the entrance to Tybee Beach offers a mouthwatering selection of pork, ribs, beef brisket and more. But the casual restaurant's stand-out dish is fried shrimp. The freshly caught shrimp are piping hot, perfectly crispy and, according to many locals, the best in town. Gerald's Pig and Shrimp also serves oysters and a low country boil--a one-pot dish featuring shrimp, sausage, potatoes and corn on the cob. Traditional side items, including baked beans, fried okra, green beans and French fries, round out the menu, along with tasty appetizers such as hush puppies, potato crab balls and wings. Be sure to wash down your meal with a glass of Gerald's tart and refreshing fresh-squeezed limeade.
