Whole Hog Barbecue & Southern Comfort Classics
Wilson County Barbecue celebrates pit-smoked, whole hog barbecue done the old-fashioned way in a comfortable gathering place replete with Southern hospitality and unfussy charm.
Headed by native North Carolinian Spencer Brantley, our barbecue is cooked in the traditional Eastern North Carolina, pit-smoked whole hog style, using recipes and techniques handed down through generations of the Brantley family of Wilson County, North Carolina. It’s a sub-regional tradition anchored around the wood-fired, pit-smoked whole pig, and in the convivial experience of sharing slow-crafted food and drink with friends and neighbors.
Wilson County Barbecue is a beacon for the best authentic Eastern North Carolina Barbecue, and for good times day and night.
We offer a set all day menu with rotating sides and specials 7-days a week. On Saturday's and Sunday's we offer a brunch menu from 9:00am-2:00pm. Our regular menu starts at 11:00am on weekends.
We are a fully scratch kitchen, meaning that our food is served fresh and with fresh ingredients. We have 25 mostly local beers on draft and operate a counter service style restaurant. Orders are placed at the ‘Order Now’ counter and a text message is sent to you when your order is ready to be picked up at the Pick Up window. We don’t accept reservations but have plenty of space inside and outside.
We can’t wait to “meat” you!
