“2 all beef dogs mustard, chili, slaw. Excellent!!! Hot, neatly made. Fast, was there less than 5 minutes. Apple turnover, also HOT and fresh and good. My drive thru coordinator was awesome, polite and patient. Respectable prices, simple dummy proof menu. Great job!!! I will be back....“

“I had the pleasure of trying Smoking Good BBQ at a gathering with friends. They took care of everything, dropped off the smoker and made sure everyone was happy with the food! It was incredible BBQ, so tender and very tasty. I highly suggest these guys for your next family get together!“
“As someone that has had NC BBQ from all over the state, I feel I am fairly qualified to make judgements.This is decent Q. It had a nice, mild smokey flavor. From the taste, I would guess it was hickory smoked, which is essential for NC Q.My problem with The Pig's Q is that it contained a fair amount of pieces of fat, skin and gristle. Maybe some folks like this in their Q, but I detest it. If you look at the picture with some material on the left side of the plate, that is the waste I pulled out.The collards were decent, but lacked seasoning, somewhat bland. I asked for vinegar but was told all they had was malt vinegar. I don't know of anyone that puts malt vinegar on collards.I loved the pickles.Overall, I will be returning. I'll just have to take some time to remove the unwanted "extras" mixed in with the pork.“
“Couldn't have been happier with our first experience at this terrific little spot! I come to Durham from PA several times a year to visit my elderly parents at Croasdaile; we are always looking for new dining spots to try, and this one did not disappoint. My mother suffers from both cognitive and dietary issues, and our wonderful server couldn't have been more friendly, upbeat and accommodating. She brought my mom a special gluten targeted menu especially suited for her needs and patiently helping talk her through all the choices, then kept checking back to ensure all was well. The specials were amazing, (hot honey Brussels sprouts?? Smoked blueberry mezcal margarita?!?! Dang!) and oh wow, that brisket....I'll be dreaming about it until I can come back again for my next visit! Literally the most tender I've had in ages. Give this wonderful place a try and I'm betting you'll be back. I know I will!“
“First time here, credit card machine broken; second around time was a charm. Great food, parking lot configuration is traditional Cookout, know your tray and follow the cones going in. Order was quick and precise, line moved rapidly, food was hot and ready to roll. Preferred Tray: Reg cue sandwich, puppies and quesadilla with a Cheerwine or the only other alternative Huge Sweet Tea.“
“The brisket was tender & had a little bit of a smoky flavor & a very faint to non-existing smoke ring. It seemed like the brisket was lightly barbecued then steamed(imo). I prefer brisket w/a definite smoke ring & a crispy barbecued bark on it. Hush puppies, mac & cheese were very tasty. Coleslaw was ok.“
