But, while in North Carolina, you MUST make your way to Parker's in Wilson. Their BBQ is vastly different from Memphis or Texas BBQ, featuring a more vinegar taste to it. With your pork, try some fried chicken, Brunswick Stew, and Corn Sticks. Hmm...what is Wilson, about 2500 miles from Phoenix? Better get started driving ;-) [email removed] JOELKIN Someone wrote: : The only way you'll know true BBQ is by traveling to Reidsville NC and : dine in Short Sugars restaurant.

No tour of North Carolina BBQ would be complete without a meal or three at Lexington Barbecue #1 in Lexington, NC. Passed through a couple of weeks ago and had a couple of pork sandwiches with red slaw. Down right good eatin'
