One man’s video journey through NC barbecue starts at B’s in Greenville.

This is my first stop in North Carolina to start the BBQ Tour.

The Pork (as served) was fantastic – 9/10
The Vinegar BBQ Sauce was Awesome- 10/10
The Cole Slaw was too sweet for my taste- 7/10
The Potatoes were OK, but I don’t care for Boiled potatoes- 6/10
The Corn Sticks – I did not care for these – 4/10
Overall Value = 8.5/10
