The North Carolina Barbecue Society (I'm not making that up) came up with a really nifty interactive "Historic Barbecue Trail" map, which can be found here.
I've eaten at #8 (lots of times) and #9, and hope to visit many more of these fine establishments in the future.One of the funniest dining moments I've had recently was when some friends of ours who are Boston-area natives came to visit, and the husband decided he wanted some real NC 'cue. So we took him to Allen & Son. He ordered up a big old barbecue platter, compete with slaw and hush puppies. His wife is somewhat of a fitness freak, so she ordered a chef salad instead. Which to her horror, came topped with a huge scoop of...chopped pork barbecue. The best salad you can get, I thought.

Nothing better then North Carolina BBQ
/me loves some (#9) A&M Grill BBQ. Though I'll guiltily admit that I've developed a love for Smithfield's BBQ as well - has a little more zing to it.
