Be ready to eat when you come here because the portions are enough for two, especially the sandwiches. I can’t get enough of the sides. The cornbread has honey drizzled over it and real corn The baked beans are a perfect mix of sweet and smoky, and the collard greens have a nice, slight kick. The mac & cheese, baked beans, and sweet potato casserole are all top tier.

I called in, but I was in the parking lot just to see what’s the wait time. 10 minutes top. I got the 4 meats, a side of collar greens, corn bread with corn in it, and the Mac and cheese O-HELL everything was crazy good. I tried to kill it, but couldn’t. Nice, clean, welcoming, and very friendly people. 10 out of 10. I’m from Mt.Giead N.C, and the drive was o so worth it.

Great place for BBQ! Dry rubbed ribs had just enough seasoning, plenty of meat, cooked just right and very tender. Brisket was perfectly seasoned and smoked to perfection. You could cut it with a spoon. Mac and cheese had good flavor but too dry for my taste. The egg salad potato salad was fresh but could definitely use more egg salad in it. Cornbread was a little on the dry side as well. The sides are definitely mediocre but the meats were definitely top tier. They offer a number of different sauces, I recommend the southern sweet as I’m not into vinegar based sauces. The two combo meal was way more food than I can finish in a sitting so although pricey, it’s basically two meals in one. Restaurant was clean and service was fast and friendly. Definitely will be returning here!

Disappointed on the smoked turkey. No smoke ring. However very moist and tasty but didn’t detect a smoke flavor… Burnt ends were far too fatty…pure smoked fat…loaded potatoes were a 10.. excellent, white well baked potato with toppings. pork spareribs perfection. Sides are all amazing…greens, Mac and cheese, cornbread were our choice.

Hands down the best barbeque food I’ve tasted in Charlotte area. The burnt ends and the brisket were simply delicious with the mix fat and non fat parts. They had really good collection of sauces – the Lexington dip was the most vinegar based and true southern, smoke pit original comes next followed by Carolina sweet. We got too full for dessert but they looked GREAT.
We got there around 5:30 and the line moved very quickly (on a Friday evening) – but soon after that it got super slow. We watched someone move barely 5 foot in half an hour. Popular place!

10/10 BBQ Spot!!! Food was so amazing we went 2 days back to back. Highly recommend the Mac n cheese, collards, ribs, and pulled pork sandwich. If you want to secure any pulled pork, you need to get there when they open or else they might just sell out. Def get your moneys worth with the size proportions.

The Smoke Pit was an amazing experience! I ordered 5 Jumbo Wings and ½ lb of Burnt Ends to go, and both were excellent. The wings had the perfect balance of sweet and spicy flavor, and the burnt ends were my first time trying them absolutely delicious and tender.
There were so many food options on the menu that I wanted to order the full meal, but I’ll definitely be back to try more. The staff was very friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. I spent about $40, which felt worth it for the quality and portions.
The only downside was the mac & cheese it was just okay, nothing special. I wouldn’t recommend it. But overall, the food itself is top notch, and I definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for great BBQ and flavorful wings.

This place is awesome!!! Friendly staff, and plenty of them! Easy ordering process, reasonable prices, and the food. Oh my goodness the food!!! Huge portions, meat was spilling off the sandwiches. The macaroni and cheese was THEEEE BESTTTT I have ever had at a restaurant. I had low expectations but was overwhelmed by the quality of food!!! One tiny mishap occurred (they forgot to put in the kids order of a slider and french fries) But they quickly prepared and served the missed meal and didn’t charge for it! The ribs were outstanding, pork was delicious. The fries are a thick cut, crispy bit of heaven! The kids meal size was very large and it was just a downsized version of the adults meal. Not cheap processed food. Free drink refills, spacious, clean bathrooms, this place had it all. It was a short distance off the highway and I jist wish there was one in NJ!!
