Barbecue
A story about Southern food and traditions would
be incomplete without a mention of barbecue, and
Charlotte has enough 'cue restaurants to cater to
whatever your regional preferences may be. Get your
pulled pork with a side of cold cra beer at Mac's
Speed Shop, Charlotte's favorite barbecue biker bar.
Bill Spoon's Barbecue is a Charlotte staple, having
served award-winning, whole-hog barbecue on
South Boulevard for more than half a century (don't
forget the housemade hot sauce).
e brisket and burnt ends are must-order items at
Midwood Smokehouse, where the kitchen burns
hickory logs 24 hours a day to slow smoke the
delicious barbecue rooted in the traditions of the
Carolinas and Texas.
If vinegar based 'cue is more your style, check out
Bubba's Barbecue, which serves up some of the best
Eastern-style swine in the state.
Not sure what variety you're in the mood for? e
Super Q Platter at Queen City Q will give you a little
bit of everything.
