    This is my second time watching this video. I love how Mark treats every single person no matter the culture, no matter the color or no matter the race or class, or the food, Mark treats everyone with the same courtesy, dignity, and respect🙏.

    As an Eastern NC native, I am proud of this episode. Well researched and some very good restaurants were chosen that are great representatives of our unique style of BBQ. I also appreciated the amount of focus on the sides which are often an afterthought at lower quality establishments. Well done Mark!

    Retired Marine who has been all over the country. I've eaten about every type and style of BBQ there is. Its all good in its own way. I've become very fond of the Memphis dry rub style, but NOTHING beats Eastern North Carolina whole hog with scrunchy skin mixed in. The original smoked pork and still my favorite. He finally figured out the proper way to eat smoked pig. Half a fork of BBQ paired with good collard greens. Doesn't get any better. Thank you for posting this.

    Georgia boy here, happy to see you enjoying Southern BBQ from our neighbors in NC. I prefer pulled pork over shredded pork, more chew. I would be in heaven with those ribs from Wilber's. Must try those smooth greens in Ayden sometime, we eat them more coarse in my home town. Glad to see so many different styles, thanks for your videos.

    Thank you for this video and for honoring our Great Eastern NC BBQ traditions! I grew up in Wilmington, NC and in the 1950’s and 60’s my granddaddy had a BBQ place there that was known all over the state. He roasted whole hogs over hardwood coals for 24 hours in the cinder block smokehouse behind the restaurant, then served the luscious meat with the cracklin’s and his amazing vinegar based sauce. He had a garden out back where he grew his own peppers for the hot pepper vinegar he put on the tables, and his own cabbage, pole beans, okra, and other ingredients for slaw and sides. And he made Johnnycakes instead of hush puppies, studded with little bits of pork cracklin’ and whole corn kernels. I could go on and on, but NC whole hog BBQ is definitely the best there is!

    Love the focus on their bar-B-Q styles. NC is so much different than the Texas BBQ I do and was raised on. I also cant help but wonder how much of the friendliness & 'over accommodation' you experience is the result of the camera & free ad & exposure you present from your You-tube channel for most of these establishments. I have lived in the NC area & found mostly normal country folk same as in other states.

    This was so great. In 2020 I took my two dogs on a barbecue vacation and hit some of these very same spots. Skylight in is by far my favorite that I had on that trip. I also ventured over into Lexington and of that style Lexington barbecue was hands-down, my favorite. I will never forget my time there, and how much it influenced my own barbecue.

    I was born and raised between Ayden and Goldsboro. I totally loved loved loved this episode. I’ve been watching you eat your way around the world for a couple of years. Your facial expressions tell the tale. Of the 5 places you went I don’t know which was the best eating but I can tell you which one was the most appealing to the eyes to me. Skylight Inn looked the most appetizing especially the collards. Thanks for doing eastern North Carolina proud and keep eating your way around the world.

      Lechon is not the same as ENC bbq sir. Very similar from a crispy skin perspective. I cook both at home. Born and raised NC, but lived in Nor Cal Bay Area for 20 yes. And lechon was my BBQ

    I've been to all of these places except Bum's (making plans now, though) and they're all excellent. I'm glad to see you did the cornbread, barbecue, and cole slaw stack at Skylight. The first time I visited B's I was struck by how fresh that cole slaw was, the cabbage still so peppery. They were just as friendly at Grady's when I visited so what you see is totally real. I need to try Wilber's again as I visited before the current owners.
