coopers - hands down

4/24/2008 5:44:38 PM

Eastern NC BBQ is way better than Western.

4/24/2008 5:45:23 PM

THE Q SHACK

HAHAHAHHA

4/24/2008 5:45:59 PM

my pants

4/24/2008 5:47:44 PM

assuming eastern style, there's nowhere great, but I tend to side with Ole Time

Cooper's sandwich special used to be dope: a bbq sandwich, fries, pork skins, and tea for $3.75...but a couple months ago they switched from the awesome crispy seasoned fries to bland, cheap fries and it's like $5.50

heading to coopers to kill time downtown. thanks for the prompt service

4/24/2008 5:58:07 PM

Its great, they give you hushpuppies and pork rinds for appetizers

4/24/2008 6:03:52 PM

cash only @ coopers fyi

4/24/2008 6:06:33 PM

i had cooper's for lunch

the skins were extra good today

4/24/2008 6:06:56 PM

best skins ever

I'd like to think they're homemade, but I've been a little disillusioned ever since I saw the woman who always works the counter scooping potato salad out of a tub

4/24/2008 6:20:32 PM

EASTERN NC PARKERS STYLE (NOT BILLS) OR IT IS NOT BBQ

4/24/2008 6:21:37 PM

^yeah, pretty much

4/24/2008 6:40:21 PM

Inside the Raleigh city limits -Cooper's
In the area - Stephenson's near McGee's Crossroads and McCall's in Clayton (just reopened yay!)
Allen and Son in Chapel Hill (the best in my opinion)

4/24/2008 6:43:12 PM

4/24/2008 6:46:30 PM

4/24/2008 6:49:23 PM

4/24/2008 7:44:29 PM

4/24/2008 7:44:57 PM

EEVVAAARRRRRR

4/24/2008 7:45:15 PM

Man, I miss NC bbq. I've tried to make my own sauce but it never seems to come out right

4/24/2008 7:45:23 PM

this thread has called into question what exactly i'm going to eat tonight. should i make a thread for that too?

4/24/2008 7:45:47 PM

yes

4/24/2008 7:46:32 PM

I go to Goldsboro.

4/24/2008 7:48:37 PM

SIT ON IT AND ROTATE

4/24/2008 7:51:18 PM

Drive to Shelby. it's worth it.

4/24/2008 9:44:01 PM

its chit chat and im too lazy to search and in a hurry, so i can ask what i want,


annnyways. went to coopers, it was closed...at 630 on a thursday night. go figure. went to ole times on hillsborough after a romping run through downtown ghetto. great place.

4/24/2008 9:45:02 PM

I will be wating at Parkers on Sat

4/24/2008 9:47:08 PM

so where is parkers? first time ive heard of it which means i probably dont get out enough

4/24/2008 9:52:09 PM

McCalls in Goldsboro or clayton, and Parkers in wilson. These are some of the best barbeque places to eat. Nothing around NCSU is as good as these

4/24/2008 9:53:14 PM

1) carolina bbq in garner (on 70)
2) old time
3) q shack is actually pretty damn good (bluegrass thursdays ftw)

coopers is probably in it too, just havent been there in a while

and yeah, this thread has never been done...but we cant search for it so i guess thats kinda tru

4/24/2008 10:43:18 PM

RBC Center.

4/24/2008 10:44:13 PM

Bill's BBQ in Wilson

Stephenson's on McGee's Crossroads

McCall's


DO NOT GO TO SMITHFIELD'S CHICKEN AND BBQ

4/24/2008 10:47:04 PM

Speaking of which, since I'm not a fan of Eastern Style BBQ, is there any place that simply has delicious BBQ without the sauce..? So I can just put whatever the hell sauce I want on it? I totally dig the RBC Center because the meat in itself is just awesome. Any other place have good meat?

4/24/2008 11:12:28 PM

^^^^^ I was so sad when I heard that closed. It was the only reason to go to the wasteland of Capital.

4/24/2008 11:13:17 PM

I like danny's for that, meat comes un-sauced and they have 4 different kinds of sauce on the table

4/24/2008 11:13:48 PM

Hog Heaven in Washington, NC
King Chicken in Washington, NC
Skylight Inn in Ayden, NC
Bill's in Wilson, NC
B's BBQ in Greenville, NC
Chap's BBQ in Kinston, NC

Round up of the best Eastern NC joints

4/24/2008 11:17:33 PM

4/24/2008 11:17:46 PM

^ you can add Wilburs in Goldsboro to that list

4/24/2008 11:20:07 PM

Don't forget King's BBQ out towards Atlantic Beach. Pig on a pup ftw.

4/24/2008 11:21:27 PM

I've eaten at Danny's and I only thought the meat was okay. They did have some bangin' sauce though.
