North Carolina BBQ Forums Q&A

I like that idea too. So I'm thinking we'll create two lists: 'By City' and 'By Route'. Of course there will be overlap but this caters to both requests. I'll try and put something together this weekend. Please let me know of other cities we should also include, other than what I listed...

Just let us and know and good ...
