In reply to Suzanne Stavert. The South is really the epicenter of BBQ in the U.S. It was really great to sample this regional dish at a roadside stand even though we were passing through.

Ordinarily, I might sit here tsk tsking about how unhealthy the food you’ve described is. However, I have house guests visiting who are very health conscious. They graciously brought all the organic special foods they like to cook with and eat and have prepared every meal since they’ve been here. Tonight’s dinner was very lean ground pork meatballs on seaweed noodles. So, reading this is making me starving for some down home deep fried North Carolina cooking—which I’ve never had before.

Sounds like a person won’t go hungry at this BBQ joint :-). We’d have to share a dinner!

I love Raleigh! The restaurant scene is fabulous. I am not a big meat eater, but I know that my family loves BBQ and mass quantities as well. 🙂

Looks great! Guess I didn’t realize that North Carolina had two kinds of BBQ. I thought the Piedmont style was it. Learn something new everyday, thanks.

In reply to Sue Reddel. I would imagine that diners contributed many of the pigs on display. If I were to return, I would bring one with me!

In reply to Nancie. And I think that portions are even larger in the South, especially at a BBQ joint! Prices are often less expensive but calorie counts can zoom! :-)

In reply to Michele Peterson ( A Taste for Travel). You're a girl of my heart. I'm crazy about collard greens! They are usually my favorite part of the meal~

In reply to Anita @ No Particular Place To Go. Eating there feels like you've returned to a bygone error!
