Hattie B's will be on my list then. Hey I'm from Charlotte I've seen folks from NY,PA,WV,CA from all over on this forum. So some real Cowboys fans from Nashville telling me where to eat is an absolute must.
I always try to keep track of the great places to eat and have fun.
But, but, but you said you don't drink so how are you gonna have any fun? You wake up in the morning, that's as good as it's going to get and I refuse to accept that and feel I am doing a public service by altering my mood with demon rum.
Love your city, really pretty and NC is a beautiful state. I travelled to both Carolinas back in the 70s/80's and the contest and declaration about which was the best BBQ reminded me of traveling Alabama and being forced to pick Bama or Auburn, I think the flight attendants make passengers declare when they just pass over any part of the state. So, I quickly went political and declared the best wherever I was and had to keep in mind that SC is famous for the mustard sauce that I love but NC is famous for two different sauces, the thick and sweet and the thin vinegar sauce that I have been making since my first trip to NC back in 1978. Been making a batch every time I run low for 40 years.
Folks in Nashville will try and convince you that their BBQ is as good as Memphis', it is not. Memphis wrote the book on dry rub BBQ.
