When did you move to SC? I guess the urge to find good BBQ drove you south.  :cheers:

Last June. 35 Vermont winters were enough  :old:

Haven't really been out on the BBQ trail in the Carolinas yet though Dixie Pig in Rock Hill, SC is pretty decent. I hope to get to Lewis BBQ in Charlestown and Aiden BBQ next spring.

Yeah I'm still flying. Mostly FSO, and learning how to GV on Tuesday night in the A vs A arena. If you do head toward Charleston, hit up Sweatman's BBQ in Holly Hill. Real good whole hog BBQ. Next stop would be Dukes in Orangeburg on Chesnut St. Best hash in the state.

I'm in Charlotte, live in Ballantyne.  521 BBQ in Fort Mill is pretty good.

With spring slowly approaching I’ve been thinking that we could we do breakfast/lunch then pay a visit to the museum by Charlotte/Douglas, thoughts?

Not a bad idea. I've been to the museum and it's worth a peek. They have the restored US Air Airbus that ended up in the Hudson River some years ago.

 I'm roughly 45 minutes to an hour from Rock Hill, SC.....  I'm between Spencer, NC & Lexington, NC on the river part of High Rock Lake

South Carolina calls their que "hash" ....never really cared for that hash-que, heh...

Where here in North Carolina we call it either pulled pork, chopped barbeque, coarse chopped barbeque, sliced barbeque ( from Greensboro east to the East Coast you get that mustard based,  then from Thomasville / Lexington and west to the mountains you vet the vinegar/red sauce based barbeque )

I'm about 35 minutes from I-85/I-77 interchange

I love Lexington Barbeque, one of my favorite places to eat.

I had chopped hog on a bun at Lexington about 3 yrs ago. Added a little slaw over the top. It was alright but I didn't get any smoke profile. Maybe it was sitting around a day or 2? I'm pretty fussy tho...been doing backyard Q for 20 years.

TC I hear the Skylight Inn in Aiden has some killer whole hog. Worth a drive from Rock Hill, SC?

South Carolina hash is a totally different dish TC. Normally served over rice right next to a big portion of pulled pork.

There's BBQ, and then there's hash, and there's also Brunswick stew, which is a chicken and corn and other delicious things type of stew.
Come down to Augusta, GA, and go to Sconyer's, you will never go anywhere else. The pulled pork is moist, hickory smoked with your choice of sauces, and the hash and rice will make you leave your wife.
