In 1924, Bob Melton of Rocky Mount opened one of North Carolina’s first sit-down barbecue restaurants. About the same time, Sid Weaver and Jess Swicegood built modest structures to replace the side-by-side tents on Lexington’s courthouse square where they had been selling barbecue since 1919. Ever since then, one of the favorite pastimes in the state has been searching for good barbecue joints.

In 1994, Bob Garner began doing short features about barbecue for UNC-TV’s statewide public-television magazine program, North Carolina Now. In 1996, he published North Carolina Barbecue Flavored by Time and produced a one-hour television special based on the book. He was soon known as “the barbecue man” in North Carolina.

In this book, Garner describes what he feels are the 100 best barbecue restaurants in the state. They range from well-known establishments to little-known holes in the wall.

In Bob Garner’s Guide to North Carolina Barbecue, you’ll find the authoritative reference for those interested in preserving the tradition of a disappearing, rural-based lifestyle through the patronage of great barbecue joints from the mountains to the sea.

I went to high school in Virginia with Bob Garner, so I was naturally intrigued when I discovered his book on the shelves of a gourmet friend in Salem, Oregon. Bob has apparently become a major force in North Carolina media and a barbecue connoisseur. His folksy little book is full of specific recommendations about the best places to get barbecue in North Carolina, as well as recounting the history of barbecue and delineating the different types of sauces. We are barbecue-starved Yankees now, and we often travel through the state on our way south. We have gone out of our way many times to eat at a spot Bob recommends, and he has never steered us wrong. The little pine-paneled hole-in-the-wall places he frequents are long on homey atmosphere and short on luxuries, but the 'cue is always delicious and the sides remind us of our southern childhoods. A bonus is that we often still find a great meal including iced tea for under $10. If you travel through North Carolina, this little book is indispensable.

Bob Garner Guide to North Carolina Barbecue edition by Bob Garner Cookbooks Food Wine eBooks Reviews


This is a great guide that we used for a BBQ road trip through the NC area. I love how he pointed out what method each placed used to cook their food, how it tastes, what he ate etc. We were able to plan which places we had to get to that day and which ones to skip (chain restaurants, electric cookers, etc).

He did a great job with each write up - nice bit of history in each write up. Seemed to give honest reviews - but glad that some review was given.

We have books where all the author does is write up about the restaurant etc, and you get there and the food is not good - at least with this book you have a general idea if you will like the "style" and then you can pass judgement yourself.
Arrived on time and as described.
THE bible of North Carolina BBQ restaurants. Bob has done extensive research and narrowed the field to only the best.
Great readomg
Bob's "Book of Barbecue" is the better book. I have both and you don't need both. There is a lot of overlap.
We are touring the NC BBQ trail with friends and the book
I just moved to North Carolina a few years ago, so this guide to NC BBQ has been indispensible. Garner has spent many years sampling and reviewing NC BBQ, and he really seems to know what he's talking about in his reviews. He's picked the 100 best BBQ joints in NC and gives a wealth of info about each, including address, phone number, hours, menu items, etc. Of course, he spends the most time talking about the BBQ.
The intro contains a concise history of NC BBQ, including a pretty thorough discourse on the differences between Eastern Carolina BBQ and Piedmont BBQ. I'm a newcomer to NC BBQ, which usually consists of smoked pork with a vinegar-based sauce, so this background info is helpful. Most of the places he reviews are well-known locally and are pretty casual, preferring to put their emphasis on the BBQ instead of the atmosphere. A terrific guide and an enjoyable read. Highly recommended for NC residents and fans of BBQ.
