   Do Porky LeSwine, the Rib Rabbi and your readers have any interest in a walking food tour? We started one in downtown Raleigh last Spring and are about to expand to the Chapel Hill & Carrboro area. Durham is next.

   Leigh,

   We like food and we believe walking is a good excuse for eating more food. Please feel free to post a link or whatever other info you have to share in the comments section, and we’ll be happy to try and spread the good word. Now if only there were more BBQ joints in walking distance of each other…

    While this is Atlanta, it is not a bad drive for a weekend if you are devoted.

    What’s happening this month
    Search: Big Pig Jig
    Georgia’s largest and oldest barbecue competition (Nov. 5 & 6) attracts 20,000 hungry spectators to watch more than 100 teams compete at cooking up pork shoulders and rib, kettles of Brunswick stew, barbecue sauce and barbecued chicken. Then, they eat. Competition barbecue cost $5 per serving while it lasts. The event began in 1982, and today includes a major arts and crafts festival plus a boisterous battle of the bands.

    I think you have a bad listing for the ECU one
    April 16 & 17, 2012: Pigskin Pig-Out Contest (Greenville)
    The link you posted goes to the 2010 Pig-Out

    The correct date is April 14 and 15

    Anyone else think the BBQ Festival in Lexington is over-rated? As a huge NC BBQ fan, this was on top of my ‘to-do’ list for a couple of years. Went last year (even took the ‘BBQ Train’)’. Huge disappointment! The BBQ was good, but there was only 1 option…the ‘collaboration’ of Lexington joints. Also, there weren’t many BBQ-related souvenirs, t-shirts, pork goodies, hats, anything. To me, it was like a small town street festival that happened to have a BBQ stand. Anyone else disappointed? How can I be a huge NC BBQ fan and not like this festival?

    Wanting to do a week long BBQ crawl next spring in North Carolina. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
25. Porky LeSwine, on October 20, 2013 at 7:32 pm said:

    Kim, a grand idea for sure. My tips are twofold: 1) see The Joints section of this site and focus on Grade A restaurants 2) study this link http://www.ncbbqsociety.com/bbqmap/trail_map.html The trail is great, although it never lists more than 2 joints in one town, which ignores several great places in Lexington, NC. Let me know where you end up.
