Decent BBQ, I have had better. sides are nothing special. It is very popular with the locals.05 Jan, 2013I have tried B’s and it is decent no frills Q. It has a great locals cult following but it’s not in same league as skylight or Clyde coopers. It’s a decent quick lunch so give it a try.
My absolute favorite!!. I’ve lived in eastern NC all my life. My dad worked next door to one BBQ restaurant and across the street from another. I’ve eaten BBQ all over NC and in Texas, Memphis, SW US, and in Kentucky. B’s barbecue is my favorite hands-down. I prefer the plates to the sandwiches. Chicken great, too! Ribs (when lucky enough to have had them–they go quickly) are phenomenal.Please B’s–don’t change and don’t go away!!
Liked it, DIDN’T LOVE it.. It tastes like regular Eastern North Carolina BBQ. The same BBQ I’ve had in VA/NC for years. It was good and a good value (2 sandwiches, cup of slaw, and tea for $8 even), but I wouldn’t venture so far as to say it was the best. Still it was a nice tangy vinegar and I’d go back, it’s just not at that LEGEND status.
She’s Not Much To Look At, But You Don’t Come Here To Look. Simply one of the very best Eastern NC BBQ joint there is, and has ever been. The iconic stature of this place is a combination of how great the BBQ is, and the fact that there is only so much pork available each day, and when it is gone, you either eat the BBQ chicken or you go to McDonalds.This is a relatively small place seating-wise and parking-wise – at the peak you can have vehicles park in the lot, on B’s BBQ RD, and on the road it dead-end’s into. There are blue collars here, white collars here, no collars here – they all come, and most come early. Most go inside, but there is a walk up window for take out.If you love NC BBQ, you really need to try what they produce here – it has more heat than almost any other BBQ I know of, and it incredibly consistent in it’s outstanding taste.
Dry, flavourless. After much anticipation I finally went to the famus ‘s barbecue. The Q was dry and lacked any substance. The sandwich comes on sunbeam, which would have been ok, except that I got stuck with the two ends. Slaw was good but didn’t make up for the overall experience.
First stop on a BBQ mini-safari. I have been wanting to get to more eastern bbq places for some time and finally got my chance. B’s was the first stop. Everyone says it so I will too: the site looks and feels like a dive…and then cars and trucks start showing up around 11:00 and park any-and-every where they can. With good reason. You might be able to argue (but only a tiny bit) about the Kingsford-charcoal vs hard wood coals Q but you’ll not get a finer classic eastern bbq meal (service, sides, seating) in many places. Everything was excellent and served in heaping portions. The large platter fed my family and I quite sufficiently (considering that we had to save a bit of room for the next stop) with 1/2 chicken, a load of Q, green beans and potatoes. And oh those corn sticks! As of now, B’s has my favorite eastern NC sauce. Nice little kick at the end of the bite.
Fabulous. There is no other word to describe B’s. It’s just fabulous barbecue. The food products are always consistent, as is the environment. You really get to experience the local culture in it’s natural setting. There is no better barbecue than this!
