The Best Barbecue Near Sacred Ground Barbecue, by the Record

A Texas-style barbecue spot on an empty stretch of highway past the train tracks in Pocahontas, where the meats come by the half pound and the brisket arrives with the kind of charred bark that makes a strong argument for skipping the burger menu. The pork butt takes on a Carolina mustard sauce without complaint. Sides carry their weight. A big patio makes it easy for families. Michelin Bib Gourmand.
