All BBQ rankings prove is that food, and BBQ in particular, is one of the most subjective topics known to man. No one will ever agree but everyone acts like they're bbq taste buds are second to none. Always fun
I'll be honest. My bro-in-law lives southeast of Charolette and every time we go up there I get more and more of a taste for the Carolina BBQ. It's a lot different then southern BBQ. They use more mustard and vinegar based sauces and when you get a Sammich they put the cole slaw on the Sammich. I was surprised at how well it tasted the first time and every time we go back I like it more and more. The slaw is very peppery, not sweet at all. Kind of like Cock-of-the-Walk's at the reservoir.
