Wood-fired BBQ, Ribs, Pulled-Pork and Chicken

The July issue of Our State Magazine, has a great article on 100 places to eat in North Carolina’s 100 counties. Unfortunately, we didn’t make the list this year but our neighbor, Hot Dog World in Hendersonville, has the honor of being the featured spot for Henderson County. Nice choice!

We didn’t go away empty handed, however. Asheville photographer, Matt Rose, was asked where his favorite place to eat in NC was and why. This was Matt’s comment:

“I like indigenous food. Barbecue is as indigenous as it gets here in North Carolina. My favorite barbecue comes from a restaurant about 20 minutes south of Asheville in the small town of Flat Rock. Behind a row of brightly painted shops is Hubba Hubba Smokehouse. Owner and Pitmaster, Starr Teel, creates the greatest BBQ in a giant, custom-built, wood-fired smoking and roasting chamber.”

Thanks, Matt!
