I subscribe to Traveler Magazine which is put out by National Geographic. In their September issue they did a special on 7 different eatery trails in the United States. They consisted of Coffee, Tex Mex/Spicy Food, Perogies, Chowder, Cherries, and BBQ. My brother and sister-in-law live in Durham about 30 minutes away from Raleigh, NC. Since I was flying out of Raleigh, we decided to eat there for dinner before I flew to Italy. The Traveler featured this place called "The Pit" which was suppose to have Barbeque like in the movie Fried Green Tomatoes. We actually had FGT for our appetizer which was out of this world. I have never had pulled pork barbeque cooked so ridiculously tender and good. They gave you so much dang food and it was only 8 bucks. Lorrie and I were in heaven. There were two choices of BBQ sauce. Traditional NC sauce (more vinegar based) and then the Memphis/St. Louis blend. UGH so good! I want some right now. They served the pork with Sweet Potato Fries that were amazing as well. Like I seriously was in heaven! Had to get a picture out front and then we were off to RDU!
