BBQ Update

[prlyles]

Just got back from my fall trip to Ocracoke. On the way down we stopped at B's BBQ in Greenville. The bbq was very good but I was a little disappointed that it was so lean but the boiled potatoes was top notch. I like eastern style to have a little chopped up fat and grizzle in it. Coming home yesterday we stopped at Wilber's and that place never disappoints. IMO if you've eaten at Wilber's in Goldsboro, Skylight in Ayden, or Lexington's bbq in Lexington, you've ate some of the best the state has to offer. I prefer eastern style to Lexington style but it's all good.

Must've had my phone off, as I didn't get a call on your way through town.

Need to add Stonewall's and Grady's to that list.

Grady's has been on my list and I hope to get there soon.

Going thru Goldsboro on a Saturday you need to put Stonewall's on your list. If on a Wednesday go there as well, BBQ Turkey.

Is it close to Wilber's or McCall's?

 

[JuleZ '02 HEEL]

Greenville?

Affirmative

Yes. It's on Cokers Mill road. I would guess 3-4 miles. It's a hole in the wall but the food is awesome. Has a special everyday.

Boiled potatoes are more of an eastern thing. You don't see them much as far west as Baton.

Boiled potatoes with a cup of melted butter to dip them in...delicious.

And the potatoes cooked in a dash of Texas Pete

So, since you live there what do you think of B's? Damn good bbq IMO.

I love B's. But I'm with you that I also like it with a bit of the crispy skin/gristle like Skylight/Sam Jones does it.

Nice timing. I've been laid up for a few days and my son was actually in Wilbur's Sat. as well. He knows how much I like that BBQ and he rode over to Goldsboro and picked up 5 lbs of the stuff for my homecoming Sat. It was delicious as usual. Y'all might've rubbed elbows.

how you feeling Jim? You were out of it when I was over there the other day.

 

[heelbent]

I'm OK, JB. Just a little stiff and sore. I'm in the office. Got to do the official AAR today so I just came on in. Pook has already called and had a fit because I snuck out this morning, lol.

 

[82ndhawk]

[UNC71-00]

[82ndhawk]

[bleeduncblue]

too bad the one in Chapel Hill stopped paying their bills ... I stopped by there last week to have lunch and there was an eviction notice on the door. Talk about a kick in the sack

 

[bleeduncblue]

If you're passing through Durham on I-85, there is a fantastic new BBQ joint called 'Picnic' that is less than a mile off the interstate, exit 173, Cole Mill Road. The hog is from a local farm (Green Button Farm) that is 2 miles from where I live. All the food is local and they have a killer beer selection. You wont regret it.

That was God's way of telling you to go get some real BBQ.

I agree but it was (in my opinion) better than my only other option in that moment: Subway

If Subway was the only other option, maybe God was just trying to tell you to skip lunch.

Sorry Billy, I hadn't read the link until just now.

skipping a meal is NEVER an option for me. But your point is valid.

I'm OK, thanks my friend. I appreciate it. That shouldn't have been posted, but JFTR I do not work for ATF.

I'm sorry but I can't speak to that, Billy. Maybe later.
