Where can I get NC style BBQ?

Am doing an NCAA dinner, and I know I am jumping the gun but I'm thinking NC will be in the Final Four, would like to serve NC style BBQ. Do any of the downtown places do that? Blue Smoke?

Actually, you're not jumping the gun at all. UNC qualified for the final four this past Sunday. As far as NC-style 'Q, there is a place called Brother Jimmy's BBQ that has several locations in Manhattan. I can't vouch for it personally, but I've heard it described as pretty good.

I am from NC and have yet to find authentic NC style bbq here. However, if you have a slow cooker, I can tell you how to make some that tastes like the real deal - of course it won't really be smoked - but it's as close as you'll get to teh flavor of NC.

Agreed. I'm from Georgia, and there is nothing NC-style about the purported NC-style BBQ served up here.
