What with all the delicious seafood we were enjoying on the Outer Banks, we knew we must try some North Carolina BBQ. We were still in the Kill Devil Hills area and chose Pigman's BBQ.
This is one of those BBQ joints where you know the minute you walk in the door whether they know what they're doing or not. These guys know what they're doing.
Of course, Carolina BBQ is quite different from Alabama BBQ. I'm not going to say whether it's better or worse, just different. And that is one of the wonderful things about our nation's cuisines. By traveling a few hundred miles in any direction, you get to enjoy totally different foods!
I wanted to try the Pork BBQ Boat because I was intrigued as to what that would be. Here it is! Authentic slow smoked North Carolina BBQ pulled and then mixed with their regular vinegar-based sauce and served with fries, a small cup of cole slaw, and hush puppies. $8.99
I enjoy my BBQ with an ample amount of sauce so I was happy there were two versions on the table so I could add as much as I wanted. Fries were average. The slaw was crisp and tasty. The hush puppies were sweet and served with honey butter as opposed to the savory and served with ketchup version I'm familiar with. So I basically saved them as my "dessert."
Harold chose the pork BBQ plate served with baked beans, slaw, and hush puppies. $11.99 That's a great look plate of BBQ, isn't it?
Their menu is extensive with beef, turkey, TUNA, ribs, chicken, wings, and shrimp. They offer a wide variety of side dishes as well as a great kid's menu.
This was a great lunchtime stop in Kill Devil Hills!
What a interesting name for their town. The BBQ looks good. Ya'll are really finding some good places to eat.
