    I was traveling near Baldwin for work and randomly decided to stop in for lunch at Cousin Willie’s. Honestly, the best decision I made that day. This place is such a hidden gem in Baldwin. Gina was extremely attentive and friendly. She asked thoughtful questions about my order that you’d usually only hear at fine dining spots, which really stood out to me. The food was fresh, well seasoned, and absolutely worth the price. Everything tasted made to order and full of flavor. I enjoyed it so much that I came back the very next day for another round. You will not be disappointed stopping here. Highly recommend if you’re anywhere near Baldwin.

    Get off the highway and check out the local digs along the way! I was so excited to see this place still in operation after a wonderful meal a few years back. I had to get the nachos with pulled pork again and it was just as good as I remembered from my last visit! Friendly and helpful staff who will gladly offer suggestions on the menu and even a to go drink when you are leaving. Last time we got the three meat combo with some amazing smoked turkey and brisket. The sides were equally tasty and worth sampling especially the BBQ beans and collard greens. So I recommend you get off I-10 and away from the national chain restaurants and support a local down to earth and darn tasty food joint like Cousin Willie’s!

    We stopped for lunch as we traveled home from Tampa. Always looking for a good local place, Cousin Willie's Smokehouse piqued our interest. We enjoyed the food immensely. Our choice was Brunswick stew and the sloppy smokehouse sandwich with fresh cut fries. The Brunswick stew was great, more chunky than most others I have had. The sandwich, a mixture of pork and brisket was delicious as well as the fresh fries. I was surprised there was not a line out the door! When Guy finds out and DDD gets the word, the days of no line will be over! We're heading right by in a couple of weeks and definitely will stop for another delicious BBQ dinner.
