If you’re from North Carolina, then you know, here in the Tar Heel State, there is more than one way to cook a pig to perfection. Some folks prefer to go whole-hog and slow cook it all at once, while others break it down to ribs, and other specialties. And to get started on seasoning preferences… well… let’s just say we all may have our favorite, but as long as it’s a North Carolina signature recipe, you just can’t wrong no matter what you choose. It’s all good.
And one of the best things about living in the triangle, or anywhere in the middle part of the state is you have easy access to both Eastern and Western style bbq. But you’ll only find one of them at the unassuming roadside haven known as Old Time BBQ, found in Raleigh…

Stop in early for a traditional breakfast, and before you leave, be sure to order some take-out BBQ for later in the day. Buy it by the pound, or carry home a whole fried or BBQ chicken, or enough racks of ribs for the entire family. And don’t forget the delicious sides.

Why not combine some delectable light and spicy-flavored bbq with some down-home fried chicken for a combo plate that’s sure to please? Add collards and mac and cheese to round out any meal.
