Over the past five years, Southern Ground Music & Food Festival has become a music and foodie paradise in Charleston, SC. From the unique dining experiences of the Stage Boxes, to the gourmet and local food vendors, to farm-to-table (or tent, if you will) options, at times it seems like you may only be at Southern Ground for the food. We tried a multitude of delectable dishes over the course of the weekend, and some eats even had us coming back for seconds.

Leon’s Fine Poultry & Oysters : Fried Oysters Rockefeller & Day Tripper Festival Foodie Rating:
There is nothing like starting your weekend off than with some oysters. We arrived in Charleston for Southern Ground the night before the festival and ended up at Leon’s (and we’re certainly glad we ended up here). This unique fried version of Oysters Rockefeller was gorgeous. The oysters were beyond fresh, the batter was fried to perfection, and the blend of spinach and herbs was just right. Accompanying this dish was Leon’s Day Tripper cockatail; a refreshing concoction of vodka, Jack Rudy Tea Syrup, Lavender, and Lemon.
This weekend, Zac Brown Band’s Southern Ground Music & Food Festival returns to Charleston, SC, for two days of top notch music and exquisite artisan food. The lineup is impressive as it boasts the likes of Tedeschi Trucks Band, Thomas Rhett, Marshall Tucker Band, Hunter Hayes, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Kacey Musgraves, Sam Bush, and Bruce Hornsby & the Noisemakers (just to name a few). Even more exciting are the gourmet concessions which will include offerings from favorite local Charleston restaurants.
The menus are set are set and Festival Foodie is excited to serve up a preview of some of this year’s food vendors at Southern Ground Music & Food Festival.
