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!
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🙏.
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.
I am a ENC (Eastern North Carolina) woman. We travel 2hrs to the skylight inn for the barbeque. We by enough to freeze and eat some there also. I love the crunchy skin they chop into the meat.
yep he's a true business professional to do food videos at this level of showcase and cross branding their biz and his content moving forward in a beautiful package everyone keeps coming back to his channel to enjoy.
Believe in Lord Jesus Christ/ Lord Yahshua and Repent from y’all sins/ evil deeds.

I’m was born and raised in North Carolina but my parents are from Oaxaca Mexico so I get to eat both styles of bbq and barbacoa and man am I lucky! Flavors I can’t explain. If you know you know. 🇺🇸 🇲🇽
Not mexican but had quite a few dinners at my friends house involving mexicans making their own bbq. Someone could make a killing with a Mexican/Eastern NC style bbq restaurant.

Mark you are the best fed man in the world! I enjoy your videos so much. This particular episode eastern North Carolina style BBQ is the nearest and dearest to my heart. You sir did it justice!
The beauty with marks videos is he truly enjoys each place. He doesn’t rank or pick sides, he just appreciates each place for what they are. Great job!
My husband and I just watched this video and it was amazing!! Skylight Inn Barbecue is by far the best Eastern NC barbecue we've ever had. We were so excited to see that you were able to go there and experience what true Eastern NC barbecue is all about. We hope that you'll revisit our wonderful state soon.
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.
Having eaten Eastern Carolina BBQ for over 68 years I can say this was the best review I've had the pleasure to watch and wish I was there. Mark and family are top notch in food reviews. Thanks so much for taking us along on this adventure of Pork BBQ and Sides !!
Nothing like West Tennessee Bbq . Not Memphis at All ,But West Tennessee with the Vinegar baste an toasted hamberger bun has to have slaw with hot suace and PULLED PORK not chopped . The ONLY WAY!!
What an awesome episode! I'm from ENC & whole hog is definitely a way of life. I live about 8 miles from Ayden...so, the Jones & Dennis families are bbq royalty! Some of the finest swine in the world comes from Pitt, Lenoir, Wayne, & Jones counties. Thanks for shining the light on our food & way of life...kudos!
I love how Mark gives props to small mom and pop restaurants in small towns. I'm a SE VA native and love me some pulled pork bbq with the vinegar and red pepper mix. But with the crunchy skin?? I was never served that. May have to visit them places soon.
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.
Currently living in Goldsboro and it is indeed very good. 🤤 Thank you for stopping by! My husband Joe was the one showing you how to cut the ribs at Wilbers. Got so excited when he told me. 😃
when the pit guy start slicing the head and taking it easy, I knew it was heaven that your soul also enjoy it. much *Love* and *Respect* from PH keep it up M.W!
New favorite video on this channel... and I've been watching for YEARS. I love that it's almost an hour long, love that it's centered on BBQ, and absolutely love the five places he went. Grady's is now on my bucket list!!!
I totally agree with what you say, it is one of the best videos, just by watching it, tasting the BBQ gives us to understand the delicious taste it has.

I’m Eastern NC BBQ girl and yes the vinegar based bbq is the best. There is also a place in NC called Redneck BBQ Lab and their BBQ is awesome! If you come back to NC you would love their food!!
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.
Welcome to North Carolina, Mark Wiens! My home state. We are eastern NC towards the coast. We love the eastern BBQ. I've followed your experiences through the years around the world. Hope you and your family enjoy North Carolina!
Im a native New Yorker from Bensonhurst Brooklyn born and raised 🇮🇹💯% I've been to skylight inn twice and sam jones(the owner) comes up to nyc for the big 🍎 block party every year so ive had his pork there 5 times the whole hog bbq they make really is on another level from anywhere else that I've tried when it comes to pork
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.
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!
Hello, Mark! This is your newly-subscribed friend from Lima, Ohio, USA! I really enjoyed this particular video. I was stationed in South Carolina when I was with the Navy and I have traveled to NC on several occasions. I have to agree with you about the folks being so friendly there. The BBQ looks so yummy! You make eating such an art. I can taste every delicious bite through your eyes. Thanks for sharing this video. You and your beautiful family stay safe out there!
This video sure made my mouth water just thinking about the juices fused with the meat. The first one with the cracklings mixed in sounded amazing. I hope one day I get to visit one of those places!
Mark it is just pure joy to watch you enjoy the small Mom and Pop places to eat, they are so lucky to have you, your enthusiasm and honesty really shine through . My mouth was watering this entire video!!!!!. as always God Bless you and your family and crew Safe travels 😍
OMG, Mark,,, you’re in my playground! I’m glad you have experienced our Carolina Charm and our one of a Kind BBQ ! The BEST! This show makes me hungry in the middle of the night! Tomorrow, I have to go to my favorite BBQ place and have have a plate of that! OH my! The heck with cholesterol!!! That is what you call… “ delicious temptations!”
So much deliciousness, love the collard greens , the black eye peas, the Lima beans, the yellow squash, and the cold slaw. I'm a South Carolinian,so I know barbeque pork any style.👍😀
Fellow SC resident here and I agree any BBQ is good, but I particularly like it when a place has hot vinegar sauce that I can put on all those great sides!

Yessir!!!! NC does BBQ better than anyone & eastern NC does it the best. I love on the west side now. But I grew up on the east side. Absolutely awesome video dude!! 💎👍🤙
It's so satisfying watching you eat the food I've grown up on. (NC boy) I come to your channel to see food from places I've never been but watching you eat foods from my home state is just as great to watch, if not better!
Awesome to see that you went thru eastern NC bbq. Nothing..and I mean nothing..beats whole hog for pulled or chopped bbq! Skylight Inn is awesome. Glad you were able to enjoy some good NC BBQ! Keep up the good work, Mark!
12:42 That pork looked amazing! It was begging for a light wheat bread to balance all that richness! 35:23 That chicken also looked very tasty! 45:32 Those ribs... Love that they didn't just mix them. They are already very tender and juicy on their own! I just love the southern hospitality and accent! Love from the other side of the pond.
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.
Love the way the owners not afraid to have you video and explain the process to you very good. Wonderful insight into BBQ. I'm a sweet BBQ sauce person no Easter Egg juice.
Mark, I live in greenville and im so glad you got to try b's bbq. I work about 5 mins from there and I have been watching your videos for years so I am sad I didnt get lucky enough to meet you, but im glad you came and tried the food I grew up eating!!!
The first pig picking I ever went to was in Eastern NC in 1978. We cooked the whole hog. It was great and I was hooked. Have attended many since then and helped out with some. Love cooking a whole hog. 👌.
Hello, Mark! This is your newly subscribed friend from Mexico. The BBQ looks so delicious. You make eating an art. I can taste every delicious bite through your eyes. Thanks for sharing this video.
I love your videos and you did right by Eastern NC with this one!!! This is by far one of the best representative videos of traditional Eastern NC BBQ and you went to the regional Mecca's of this craft. I just shared your video in an NC BBQ fb group and it is getting some attention. I bet you'll get some new subscribers out of this one!
As a North Carolinian, I’m ashamed that I’ve never been to these places. But so glad you visited and get to show the world some of the best BBQ there is. 🤙🏻♥️
Nobody loves food like Mark does! He gets so excited about it! I don’t know how he can pack so much food away, going from one major meal to another place to try 3 more whole plates w/sides. He’s insatiable!
I love bbq. I was privileged to have NC bbq several years ago when visiting my aunt who lives in Monroe. That vinegar based sauce is to die for with that chpped whole hog pork. Simply amazing! Thanks Mark for another great food tour but you're going to have to do another bbq tour from South Carolina, Texas, Tennessee and Kansas and do a comparison to see which one you like best.
Mark ,this was truly a wonderful Saturday afternoon chill out watch.All the meat,and those amazing sides,looked absolutely delicious.Thankyou so much,and big respect to all the pit masters featured!🇨🇦♥️👍🇺🇸

Hello Mark I feel as though I know you. I live in Burlington NC and I've watched your video's for several years. I tuned in today and saw you were in North Carolina checking out eastern barbeque. I could hardly believe it. We love barbeque from Greensboro NC at Country Barbeque and Lexington NC. If you ever get a chance check them out.
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!
Mark is honest and precious!
Yes Sir!

The quality of the fried okra can make or break a BBQ joint in my eyes.
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🙏.

I love how the owners/staff take the time to take mark on mini tours and tell him their story. You can see the passion ❤️

I’m was born and raised in North Carolina but my parents are from Oaxaca Mexico so I get to eat both styles of bbq and barbacoa and man am I lucky! Flavors I can’t explain. If you know you know. 🇺🇸 🇲🇽
Wow, same exact story here! NC born and raised, mother grew up in Oaxaca. Both bbq and barbacoa >>>
Not mexican but had quite a few dinners at my friends house involving mexicans making their own bbq. Someone could make a killing with a Mexican/Eastern NC style bbq restaurant.
As a North Carolina boy I can say that whole hog vinegar bbq is one thing that we do not mess around with. Top notch stuff
As a fellow North Carolina boy I agree sir.
Tarrrrrr heeeeeeels
As an Island girl ( Caribbean) you are right!

So glad you adore the bbq from my hometown!

Umm...isn't pulled and shredded the same?
We don't do 'pulled pork', that's Food Network talk.
Possibly my favorite Mark Wiens video and I've been a subscriber for at least 4 years. Makes me want to do a Carolina BBQ road trip!
Me too
Parkers in Greenville and Wilson, NC will mail it to you
I really like when someone loves his job. All what I have seen is that the guys and woman loves his/her job. I love it!
Such a great episode! Micah is getting so big! It has been a joy to watch him grow through your videos. You and Ying are great parents
Yes, Micah is growing fast. I can't wait for him to start eating with his dad and saying Wow.... !!

YES...in my home state!! I absolutely love this.
What an awesome episode! I'm from ENC & whole hog is definitely a way of life. I live about 8 miles from Ayden...so, the Jones & Dennis families are bbq royalty! Some of the finest swine in the world comes from Pitt, Lenoir, Wayne, & Jones counties. Thanks for shining the light on our food & way of life...kudos!
And Wilson County...Parker's!
Yep, I grew up always loving when my daddy wanted Pete Jones bbq!
I'm from craven county. Couldn't agree with you more!
I grew up with Moore's bbq. Not the same anymore.
Joes bbq in whiteville and fullers in Fayetteville is also great
Thanks!
I love how Mark gives props to small mom and pop restaurants in small towns. I'm a SE VA native and love me some pulled pork bbq with the vinegar and red pepper mix. But with the crunchy skin?? I was never served that. May have to visit them places soon.
In most places you need to ask for skin and most places will bring it if available.
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'm from Namibia 🇳🇦and I am into cooking. I never miss your food travel videos Mark.
Currently living in Goldsboro and it is indeed very good. 🤤 Thank you for stopping by! My husband Joe was the one showing you how to cut the ribs at Wilbers. Got so excited when he told me. 😃
52 Mins of Awesomeness filled with Juiciest BBQ's I ever saw !!
Left me Drooling and Salivating !
when the pit guy start slicing the head and taking it easy, I knew it was heaven that your soul also enjoy it.
much *Love* and *Respect* from PH keep it up M.W!
New favorite video on this channel... and I've been watching for YEARS. I love that it's almost an hour long, love that it's centered on BBQ, and absolutely love the five places he went. Grady's is now on my bucket list!!!
Thank you very much, Grady's is an amazing place!
@@MarkWiens Keep up the amazing work!
Mine too!!😊
I totally agree with what you say, it is one of the best videos, just by watching it, tasting the BBQ gives us to understand the delicious taste it has.
It's been a fun ride watching MICA grow up..............I have been watching for years, wish you the beat MARK.............will be a fan forever !!!!
One barbecue I love seeing is whole hog then to see this video is nearly an hour long was a bonus. My mouth is dripping.
Had the pork BBQ plate yesterday. Always my favorite. Drove 180 miles from Virginia to eat there. Well worth the trip.
Time well spent!
I love how Mark gets so excited and hyped when he eats food in every video. He makes me hungry all the time. Awesome Video Mark!
I just can't understand how he keeps so slender...
@@whereswendy8544 same thing I was thinking. I eat maybe 1/4 of the food this dude eats and we're the same size (both skinny) lmao.

I’m from North Carolina, I’m so happy you are here . I’ve been following you since Micha was a baby. God bless you and your family Mark!
This makes my heart so full being an Eastern Carolina girl myself 💚
My daughters and I were so happy to see you in our state. We love our BBQ... and Mark Wiens!
I’m Eastern NC BBQ girl and yes the vinegar based bbq is the best. There is also a place in NC called Redneck BBQ Lab and their BBQ is awesome! If you come back to NC you would love their food!!
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.
Welcome to North Carolina, Mark Wiens! My home state. We are eastern NC towards the coast. We love the eastern BBQ. I've followed your experiences through the years around the world. Hope you and your family enjoy North Carolina!
I watched every second of that video!!! good stuff like
makes me wanna travel north carolina for this food,im drooling 🤤 while watching,makes me hungry 😋 😋😋😋
Im a native New Yorker from Bensonhurst Brooklyn born and raised 🇮🇹💯% I've been to skylight inn twice and sam jones(the owner) comes up to nyc for the big 🍎 block party every year so ive had his pork there 5 times the whole hog bbq they make really is on another level from anywhere else that I've tried when it comes to pork
6:05 absolutely had me dying at that throw 😂
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.
All the places you tried looked so good, but the first one, Wow!
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!
Best food I’ve ever had was a whole hog cooked underground in Mississippi, everyone needs to have an experience like this, it was incredible
That sounds amazing!
I live in Mississippi . I would love to arrange a cookout meeting for you!
Amish do it in Illinois
Yes, you do travel for food. You have a unique way of describing all types of food. Love your videos and your beautiful family.
Hello, Mark! This is your newly-subscribed friend from Lima, Ohio, USA! I really enjoyed this particular video. I was stationed in South Carolina when I was with the Navy and I have traveled to NC on several occasions. I have to agree with you about the folks being so friendly there. The BBQ looks so yummy! You make eating such an art. I can taste every delicious bite through your eyes. Thanks for sharing this video. You and your beautiful family stay safe out there!
I live in Florida and I will be taking a trip to these places for sure and I'm due for a vacation!
This video sure made my mouth water just thinking about the juices fused with the meat. The first one with the cracklings mixed in sounded amazing. I hope one day I get to visit one of those places!
NC is a awesome state, thanks for showing it off!
Mark it is just pure joy to watch you enjoy the small Mom and Pop places to eat, they are so lucky to have you, your enthusiasm and honesty really shine through . My mouth was watering this entire video!!!!!. as always God Bless you and your family and crew Safe travels 😍
I also m watching mark's repeat videos...m enjoying myself immensely watching him eat...thank u mark..
OMG, Mark,,, you’re in my playground! I’m glad you have experienced our Carolina Charm and our one of a Kind BBQ ! The BEST!
This show makes me hungry in the middle of the night! Tomorrow, I have to go to my favorite BBQ place and have have a plate of that!
OH my! The heck with cholesterol!!! That is what you call… “ delicious temptations!”
LOL!! MICAH REPEATING EVERYTHING MARK SAYS!! 😆😂🤣
IT'S BEEN SO AWESOME WATCHING HIM GROW UP!!
This video is very well done. It's a production that I would expect to see on television
So lovely to see big boy mika eating an getting in on the videos love it need to see an hear him more definitely
So much deliciousness, love the collard greens , the black eye peas, the Lima beans, the yellow squash, and the cold slaw. I'm a South Carolinian,so I know barbeque pork any style.👍😀
Fellow SC resident here and I agree any BBQ is good, but I particularly like it when a place has hot vinegar sauce that I can put on all those great sides!
Believe in Lord Jesus Christ/ Lord Yahshua and Repent from y’all sins/ evil deeds. Sin is real and so is Hell and it’s terrifying and scary Turn to Lord Jesus Christ/ Lord Yahshua and turn to him before it’s too late he is coming back very soon time is super short.

I like Both SC styles of BBQ Mustard base and Vinegar.
Porky D's in Lexington SC has awesome mustard base
Go Brady's.... You gave Mark a great amount of food. This a barbeque place people should support!
We really appreciate your effort and dedication to make interesting food videos for us that make our day' a perfect day!
Well said! 💯

Thank you very much!
@amir khan so what.
@amir khan So what he is not muslim lol
Yessir!!!! NC does BBQ better than anyone & eastern NC does it the best. I love on the west side now. But I grew up on the east side. Absolutely awesome video dude!! 💎👍🤙
That corn bread, pork, sauce, and coleslaw BITE looked amazing!!
Wow, I am impressed with the attention to detail of estern NC, barbecue. That looks incredibly good. 😎
I love how he enjoys each bite..... watching him eat 😋 can make you buy a flight ticket just to experience the taste.
Your enthusiasm sets you apart. Very entertaining.
Omg 😆 I need me some pork 🐷 now 😅
Wish we had something like this local to us in London!
Loving the video Mark, excellent as always ❤
It's so satisfying watching you eat the food I've grown up on. (NC boy)
I come to your channel to see food from places I've never been but watching you eat foods from my home state is just as great to watch, if not better!
Awesome to see that you went thru eastern NC bbq. Nothing..and I mean nothing..beats whole hog for pulled or chopped bbq! Skylight Inn is awesome. Glad you were able to enjoy some good NC BBQ! Keep up the good work, Mark!
12:42 That pork looked amazing! It was begging for a light wheat bread to balance all that richness!
35:23 That chicken also looked very tasty!
45:32 Those ribs... Love that they didn't just mix them. They are already very tender and juicy on their own!
I just love the southern hospitality and accent!
Love from the other side of the pond.
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.
Love the way the owners not afraid to have you video and explain the process to you very good. Wonderful insight into BBQ. I'm a sweet BBQ sauce person no Easter Egg juice.
They were also on Andrew Zimmern and The Triple D (Diners Drive-Inns and Dives)
Your videos always make me brutally hungry! I wish I could put away half of food that you eat. Keep up the good work!
By far my favorite video so far of the channel!!
Mark, I live in greenville and im so glad you got to try b's bbq. I work about 5 mins from there and I have been watching your videos for years so I am sad I didnt get lucky enough to meet you, but im glad you came and tried the food I grew up eating!!!
Cool to hear that Keyzer, would have been great to meet!
What a GREAT video!! Thank you for revealing the love and great food in The South!
I enjoyed this episode very much. Everyone seems super friendly in North Carolina. I wish I can try everything you had! Thank you Mark.
Jackson's Big Oak BBQ in Wilmington NC has some of the Best Eastern NC Style too!😊
What a lovely vid, love from India. Will definitely plan a trail of these places one day ❤
Love from the US man! Hope you get a chance to visit :)
Maybe we can swap places for a little bit 🤣 I need some real Biryani and Tandoori meats in my life
@@mstuckey311 oh yes!!
The first pig picking I ever went to was in Eastern NC in 1978. We cooked the whole hog. It was great and I was hooked. Have attended many since then and helped out with some. Love cooking a whole hog. 👌.
That was a fantastic video Mark! You made me soooooo hungry!
Beautiful North Carolina foods tour😋👍😍❤️
Hello, Mark! This is your newly subscribed friend from Mexico. The BBQ looks so delicious. You make eating an art. I can taste every delicious bite through your eyes. Thanks for sharing this video.
I love your videos and you did right by Eastern NC with this one!!! This is by far one of the best representative videos of traditional Eastern NC BBQ and you went to the regional Mecca's of this craft. I just shared your video in an NC BBQ fb group and it is getting some attention. I bet you'll get some new subscribers out of this one!
Never seen Mark so happy as the last two restaurants!!😁
Today was my third time eating Grady’s and I cannot stress how insanely good it is. You can tell it’s made with love and kindness.
Another great video! Southern hospitality at its finest. 👍
We sure do have the best bbq pork and craft beer ! Just don’t move here, we’re full 😉 Thanks for this awesome content, you did us right!
As a North Carolinian, I’m ashamed that I’ve never been to these places. But so glad you visited and get to show the world some of the best BBQ there is. 🤙🏻♥️
Boy, that made me hungry. I hope I get to Eastern Carolina someday to try it myself.
Love from Bangladesh 💚❤️💚
The food down there is the bomb and I'm glad that you love it
I like that how Mika takes off the fried skin part of Mark's hand.😂😂😋
Nobody loves food like Mark does! He gets so excited about it! I don’t know how he can pack so much food away, going from one major meal to another place to try 3 more whole plates w/sides. He’s insatiable!
I love bbq. I was privileged to have NC bbq several years ago when visiting my aunt who lives in Monroe. That vinegar based sauce is to die for with that chpped whole hog pork. Simply amazing! Thanks Mark for another great food tour but you're going to have to do another bbq tour from South Carolina, Texas, Tennessee and Kansas and do a comparison to see which one you like best.
Kansas City. And yes, that would be a fantastic video idea!
Hello Mark and everyone ! Hope you have a great day ! Thanks for the best food show !
Mark ,this was truly a wonderful Saturday afternoon chill out watch.All the meat,and those amazing sides,looked absolutely delicious.Thankyou so much,and big respect to all the pit masters featured!🇨🇦♥️👍🇺🇸

I totally agree that the crispy skin adds to the. I wish I was close enough to this place to get some of it. Yum yum
Hello Mark I feel as though I know you. I live in Burlington NC and I've watched your video's for several years. I tuned in today and saw you were in North Carolina checking out eastern barbeque. I could hardly believe it. We love barbeque from Greensboro NC at Country Barbeque and Lexington NC. If you ever get a chance check them out.
When I have anxiety just watching his videos calms me down! Thank you mark!!
