Finally got around to trying The Dixie Pig after years of driving by the place. The food was fantastic! Pulled pork and the brisket were delicious. The fries were crispy and the potato salad was yummy. The prices were so reasonable for bbq. Tried the pecan pie too which was a great way to end the meal. Service was excellent. Definitely recommend!

Probably tried this place after living here for a few years. I’ve always heard really good things about it and today was finally the day!

You can tell it is a very local restaurant by the feel and service you get. The lady who seated me was very friendly as was everyone else I encountered during my visit. You could tell I wasn’t the only one ready to enjoy a good meal as just listening to the conversations of other people and how pleased they were with their experience and food.

I ordered the pulled pork plate with macaroni and cheese and barbecue hash. Every single bit of it was absolutely delicious! I elected for the Memphis magic BBQ sauce. The only one thing for me was the first cup of sauce I received was fantastic. I requested a second one and that cup tasted much more like just tomato sauce. I’m assuming that one was more towards the bottom of the supply but no harm no foul. Definitely tasted like good homemade sauce.

Highly recommend going here and trying it out. I look forward to trying their other sauces and meats on future visits. What other request I would have is being able to get brisket before 5:00 p.m. not a big issue now that I know when it is served but would like the ability to order it if I’m there during the day.

Overall though an excellent experience and is very well priced for a barbecue restaurant.

First time coming here and we were impressed! The food portions were good for the price. But most importantly, the taste was great! We also praise the great customer service we received. The whole staff was kind and our cups never went empty. Our waitress was very attentive! Overall, we highly recommend the place! We hope the picture we shared shows how much we liked their food

We had such a great meal at The Dixie Pig in Rock Hill! I ordered the smoked chicken with collard greens and cabbage, and it was absolutely delicious—tender, smoky, and full of flavor. My husband had the pulled pork with mac & cheese and BBQ hash, and he couldn’t stop raving about it. The portions were generous and everything tasted fresh and homemade.

We finished by sharing the peach dumplings, and oh my goodness—they were the perfect sweet ending! Comfort food at its finest. The service was friendly, the atmosphere was welcoming, and we’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

Best South Carolina pulled pork I ever had! Homemade mustard sauce. Huge portion! Black eyed peas and collard greens and BBQ hash sides also awesome! Very reasonable prices too.

As a Californian-born, now three-decade North Carolina transplant, I’ve been here long enough to know that in the South there’s not much more sacred than the Bible, the breweries, and the BBQ. Around here, barbecue isn’t just a food group.. it’s a belief system. Some parts of the country enjoy BBQ in a casual sense.. think burgers on the grill, maybe a few ribs on a summer weekend. Here in the Carolinas, it’s an identity and It usually means pulled pork, probably vinegar-based, and definitely served with a side of debate about which regional sauce reigns supreme.

When I pulled into The Dixie Pig in Rock Hill on my way back from an appointment (stomach growling, highway humming, and pulled pork practically calling my name) I was greeted with the kind of southern hospitality that always feels sincere, not scripted. I had my sights set on brisket.. but no dice, It’s a dinner-only affair after 5 p.m. So, I pivoted to the pulled pork platter with house BBQ sauce, macaroni, coleslaw, and hushpuppies. (Insert sarcastic sigh here, another tragic case of “forced to eat pulled pork in Carolina.”)

Now, I’ll probably catch some heat for saying this, but I’m often underwhelmed by pulled pork across the state (even at the famous joints). Too often it’s dry, stringy, or bland enough to make me question if we all just like the sauce more than the meat. Not here though, this place was different.. this pork was different. It was juicy, flavorful, tender “meat butter”, and yes, I’m coining that term right now. The kind of pork that melts in your mouth rather than needing sauce to survive. You taste smoke, not seasoning. The fat rendered just right with the texture balanced between bark and softness. I don’t say this lightly: it’s the best pulled pork I’ve had at any Carolina BBQ spot, period.

The sauce hit the sweet-spot balance between tangy and rich, complementing rather than masking the meat. The hushpuppies were golden perfection.. crisp on the outside, soft inside, perfect for soaking up every last drop. The macaroni was… mid at best. It had that buffet-style vibe where the cheese and noodles coexist but don’t quite blend (like two strangers making polite small talk at a potluck). The coleslaw? Fine I’m sure, just not my style. It’s thin-sliced, light on dressing and probably 10/10 for someone who likes that. My preference? I’m a fan of extra creamy, sweet enough to double as dessert type of cole slaw.

Sides aside, the pork makes this place an easy recommendation, not the just a “good if you’re nearby” kind of spot, but a “worth-the-drive” destination for anyone chasing real Carolina smoke. The Dixie Pig doesn’t feel like it’s trying to compete in the Instagram-friendly BBQ wars. It’s not flashy and it’s not over-branded, it’s just honest food done right, slow-cooked, high-skill, low-ego.

If you find yourself cruising down I-77 with a craving that only pulled pork can fix, skip the chain exits and take the Rock Hill detour. Order the platter.. get extra hushpuppies.. and thank me later.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – for the pork (meat butter hall of fame)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – for the hushpuppies
⭐️⭐️⭐️ – for the sides
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – for authenticity

Overall: 4.5/5 – A Rock Hill staple that’s proof Carolina BBQ still has a few secrets worth discovering.

The ribs tasted good. The BBQ prime rib sandwich had a good flavor, as did the sides. But I don’t think the meat was “prime rib”. It was tough to chew.

Wonderful spot for BBQ. Tried it while in town and I wasn’t disappointed. Chopped brisket was tender, smoky and flavorful. I added a link of brat that was delicious too. Sides were black eye peas with collards and the hash, both were wonderful. I chose the house bbq sauce which was tangy with a touch a sweetness. Try this place out and you won’t be disappointed. Servers were very friendly and an eclectic mix of music that I really enjoyed.

I don’t mean this to be a bad review but the BBQ sandwich was okay. The BBQ doesn’t have much flavor and is a little greasy. This just isn’t my style, but the associates were very friendly, and the helping was fair.

Decided to try to this place out for a small event, going off word of mouth and reviews. THIS WAS NOT IT! Just being honest DONT BELIEVE ALL THE GOOD REVIEWS. Ordered brisket AND pulled chicken (1000% is not actual pulled chicken). Both were very dry and cooked with no flavor. Just wasnt good at all. 3/10. Sauces were the best tasting thing
