DELICIOUS!!!! Begged my boyfriend to stop by this place on our way back and and both him and I are so happy we did!! Wow why are chicken gizzards soooo good, they are crunchy but not like your regular hard crunch. I recockmend (this typo was on accident but I'm keeping it there) everyone try gizzards. You will order them every time you see them on the menu. These were no exception omg seasoned perfectly and fried perfectly. Awesome coleslaw that help cut the oiliness of all the fried foods. It was hilarious when I ordered, I kinda whispered gizzards cuz I guess I was somewhat shy and embarrassed someone would judge. Right after I said it, the cashier screamed at the top of her lungs to the back kitchen "GIZZARDSSSSS!!" Price also amazing!!! Only 7$ and change for my whole meal!! read more

Currituck BBQ - Fried Chicken Gizzards with Cole slaw, Hushpuppies, and okra - Barbeque Near Me - Barco, North Carolina

One of the best BBQ places I've ever been to. So glad my friends and I got to experience this spot. We stopped by and placed a family meal of an order. We got everything from the pulled beef brisket, brisket burnet ends, rotisserie chicken, meat combos (1 of each of the 3), and some ribs. Now what sets this place apart is not only is the BBQ amazing the sides and sauces set the bar. Get the mac n cheese, baked beans, potato sales, hush puppies, and sweet potato casserole. The hush puppies had to be everyones favorite. Something about the crunchy exterior and warm cornbread had us all raving. The sauces here are no joke. Get all of them to sample. I personally like the South Carolina BBQ sauces. Something about the strong mustard and vinegar flavor made it delish. Honestly if we didn't have to drive 4 hours home we'd probably order more to go. The location is spotless and the staff has Covid conditions in place with social distancing. They also feature an open bench area outside for seating as well. This spot got really busy during lunch time, but don't expect a long wait. If you want authentic North Carolina BBQ this is your spot. They have great Southern entrees and sides read more

Ooooohhhhh ma xxxxx! BBQ is divine. Ribs fell off the bone. Chopped brisket was flavorful and juicy. If they slice it, much better I reckon. Pulled pork was just right. I got there around closing time 21:00, but hey were nice to us. Cozy country atmosphere. Colored green, Mac n cheese, and chix were sold out. I gotta try them next time. Oh stuffed... read more

I came here on a Saturday during the coronavirus pandemic. Because of this, they were only accepting takeout. All the chairs were stacked on top of tables. There was a sign at the door insisting customers to wash their hands. I did so, and proceeded to the counter to order. The lady was very sweet and friendly while she welcomed me to the restaurant. I ordered a bbq sandwich and a side macaroni and cheese. Now I am no stranger to Currituck BBQ Co. It's just been several years since I've been. I graduated high school from here. I paid for my order and ate inside my car. It was a gorgeous day. The bbq was delicious. Even more so with the coleslaw inside. The Mac and cheese was delicious... oozed with cheese! I will forever be a fan!! read more

This place never disappoints. We almost always stop in here on our way through NC. The staff is always friendly and today was the same! The food is always fantastic and the portions are always perfect! read more

I cannot stop thinking about the lunch I had here. The sweet potato casserole was to die for. My whole party got all different pulled meats and different sides. No one has anything but raving reviews. This place is popular and amazing for the food, the place, and the amazing sauces that you get to enjoy with your meal. YUM YUM YUM read more

Yummm! My husband loves his BBQ. Currituck did not disappoint. Pulled pork was cooked to perfection. Pulled chicken was tasty too. We enjoyed the food as a platter for lunch and had plenty left over for dinner later on in the day. Macaroni and cheese was creamy, beans were tasty and fries were great. The Hushpuppies are legend. When you stop check out the "Smile" cookie. A unique touch. A "no frills" spot that is clean, with friendly staff and pays serious attention to their food. read more

Awesome bbq joint. I was visiting the area with family and we ordered brisket, pork, and pulled chicken sandwich with Mac and cheese and sweet potato casserole. It was all delicious, well seasoned, fresh and moist. Food was delivered quickly. read more

We bought carryout one time from Currituck BBQ and decided to try it for lunch so we could have it fresh and hot. Food was OK, but for us it would not be worth the drive again from KDH. High Cotton, TL's, Carolina Barbecue and Martelle's all serve better pork. The pork is a very fine chop with almost no vinegar sauce and just did not have that great ENC pork flavor. It was clean but very mild. The brisket is chop/shredded like the pork, which was a surprise. I did not do my homework and wished I had ordered Burnt Ends instead, but they always disappoint me by being dry and chewy. I would not order brisket again, it was just stringy roast beef with some sauce. The ribs are the style we find typically in NC, which means not very good. They had very little smoke, and were overdone to caulking-gun ready mush and covered with sauce to hide the fact that they are not smoked. They are probably done in an oven or electric cooker. I kicked myself for not asking them to leave off the sauce. They were better than Sooey's and on a par with High Cotton. I just keep trying ribs around here and I keep being disappointed. Once again, eat brisket in Texas, ribs in Memphis and chopped pork in Eastern North Carolina. It is a lesson I learn over and over. I would describe them as "good food, just not good ribs". Ms T had pulled chicken on a sandwich and it was wet so as to turn the bun into complete goo. They served great slaw however. If I stopped here it would only be for slaw and pork BBQ, which is of course what one should eat in ENC anyway. If you are on the road to or from Norfolk, this is much better pork than BJ's. I am ignoring the brisket and ribs and find the pork to be a solid three stars. If I lived here I would be happy enough to eat a sandwich with slaw regularly. read more

Stopped by randomly in 2006 with some friends and was passing through again, so I thought I should come back. It was just ok. I got the combo platter with brisket and pulled pork. The brisket was just kind of whatever, and the baked beans seemed very standard and generic and didn't taste much different from canned. The default bbq sauce was good (not sure which one they gave me when I asked, they gave me two of the same, though in my heart i wanted to try all the different ones). The pulled pork was good. The cole slaw seemed to lack any sort of tang or bite to it and did not enhance the experience at all. The hush puppies were good, and while not the best I've had, the mac and cheese was surprisingly (based on how it looked) the best part of the meal. I wouldn't necessarily come back here again. read more

Excellent BBQ! Tried both pulled brisket and chicken. Chicken is killer! Will not disappoint.

Currituck BBQ Company was really great! A couple of colleagues and I decided to stop here, while traveling for work. The restaurant was very "old timey" and country, which was one of my favorite parts. The menu was packed me country meals: gizzards, pulled pork, brisket, BBQ chicken, mac n cheese, sweet potatoes, green beans, and MUCH MORE. There was so much to choose from off of the menu and the service was great! It was about eight of us and the cashier was so kind. The service is seat your self and our food was ready so fast! The food was great! I got a Brisket sandwich with fries and mac n cheese. It was perfect!! The brisket was seasoned perfectly and was nice a tender. The mac n cheese was PERFECT! Literally, enjoyed my entire meal; so did my colleagues. Overall, great experience and STRONGLY recommend. read more

Always good BBQ, just wish they had not switched from their crinkle fries. All the other sides are fantastic.

First place we stopped in NC for some BBQ and it did not disappoint. Have everyone order different sides so you can sample them all. The mac and cheese is delicious and the hush puppies are a must. Sample all the sauces; you will have a hard time choosing a favorite. read more

The advertise brisket burnt ends but don't seem to know what this actually is. I ordered the platter and they simply cut brisket into cubes but that was it! It was just brisket but not the extra goodness that makes them burnt ends, but have no problem charging extra! read more

Mediocre at best! This was very disappointing for my first North Carolina barbecue experience. I'll stick with Virginia bbq.

Great BBQ. Ate here on the way to ands leaving the Outer Banks. Had rotisserie chicken, pulled pork and brisket sandwiches. Outstanding. Excellent sauces as well. read more

Nice location when coming in or out of the OBX. Service was friendly and quick. The food was good.

The food was great ...we had the bbq pulled chicken sandwich and pulled Pork sandwich. The sweet potato casserole was amazing...And fried okra. Their outside area could have been a little nicer. The grass was tall and tables not in great shape but overall a good experience with good food. Ben g from NY we wanted to try local bbq food and it was worth the visit ..also they were out of a few items but the ppl working there were friendly and apologetic !! Love this spot read more

Burnt ends are to die for! Never had any better in my life. It's a shame I live in Florida now. If I'm ever passing through the OB's I will definitely go out if my way to stop here. Small, old looking place but friendly staff and the best BBQ you can find is waiting inside. Stop in and try it, it won't disappoint. read more

The hush puppies were tasty. The fries were pretty good. The ice was cold. If not for that I would've only given 1 star. The meats were flavorless mushy schlock. Not returning. read more

After a day of offShore fishing from the Oregon Inlet we stopped to dine here on our way north. The employees were friendly. We ordered ribs, brisket, our sides were baked beans, coleslaw green beans and there were also hush puppies. The side portions were small & just tasted ok. Neither the ribs nor brisket had a smoked flavor. The brisket was minced instead of sliced. Perhaps I missed that on the menu. I did see burnt ends. Overall the meal was just ok. read more

Loveeee the sauces here! SO DELICIOUS!!! And don't forget to get some yummy hush puppies! read more

I know everyone has their own favorite style and barbecue place, and this is mine. They make a great Carolina pulled pork. They also have mouth watering brisket and ribs. The meats are always smoked to perfection. The sides are fantastic. Be sure to try the mac and cheese. I've had them cater some events as well and they are incredibly friendly and helpful. read more

More convenient than tasty plus they got our order wrong. We paid for brisket and got pulled something or another. It was just okay. We're Texans sooooo we do bbq better! read more

Disappointing. Had the burnt ends brisket and it was so salty, it tasted chemical, and chewy. The fries and hush puppies oozed grease and tasted of old, reused oil. Not a pleasant dining experience. read more

Stopped in for quick lunch. Great service and got it to go. Bbq chicken sandwich, 2 BBQ pork sandwiches, cheeseburger, and brisket sandwich. Lots of meat on them and very good. read more

You guys, support this local business!!!! I emailed the night before when my autistic son was planning to visit with his friends the next day. He has lots of food allergies. The manager Deanna, emailed me by 6am and called by around 9 to make entirely sure they were ready for him. He was able to enjoy a meal with his friends and feel safe and a part of things, thanks to their kindness and amazing service. We will definitely be back!!! read more

Simply the best of southern comfort and Carolina bbq!!! Busy but worth it.. will not be disappointed. Yummy! read more

I have tried barbecue all over Tidewater and northeastern North Carolina; with the possible exception of a backyard party or two, Currituck BBQ is without question the best I've ever had. The meat is tender, the sauce is perfect, and the sides are incredible. (The sweet potato casserole is a food group until it's self. But please leave me a portion if you go! They've run out once or twice, and if I don't bring some home for My wife I may have to sleep on the porch.) There is ample seating inside and out back. It isn't fancy, but it is clean and cheery. If you care at all for barbecue done properly, do. Not. Miss. read more

As a Yankee, I probably have no right to judge this fine establishment. In my best attempt to explain how delicious this was I will give some quotes from my compatriots. "That was the best brisket sandwich I have ever had" "Steve, I've never seen you eat that much...and you are going back for banana pudding?" "These hush puppies are perfect and they go well with the brisket sauce." "A burnt ends sandwich with 2 sides for under $10, what a deal." "Basically it's amazing and the meat falls right off the bone, the sweet tea is so sweet it will give you diabetes on the spot and the sweet potato casserole is amazing." Go go go! read more

If you are in the area and you don't stop you are doing yourself a great injustice. This place is amazing. If your looking for fancy, this isn't it, but if your looking for great food and nice people this is the place to be. My 7 year old is always tough when we go to BBQ but she finished her pulled pork sandwich in a flash and asked for more. I tried the beef brisket sandwich and was floored. It was just out of this world. Lastly, my wife had the 1/4 dark rotisserie chicken and said it was incredible. We almost drove by without stopping, but thanks to a quick look at Yelp we turned around and had one of the best meals of our vacation. read more

Great eastern NC bbq! I make a point to stop here on my way to/from the outer banks every year, and it never disappoints. Pulled chicken and pulled pork are great, and I love the slightly spicy vinegar-based eastern NC sauce on the pork. Sides are also decent, especially the mashed sweet potatoes and coleslaw. They also have very good hush puppies. Parking is plentiful and they have both inside and outside, covered seating. Prices are extremely reasonable, even for bulk items and family sized meals. Worth a stop. read more

We went to this restaurant while visiting the Outer Banks and were pleasantly surprised! The food was very good, I had the pulled Chicken sandwich and my husband had the pulled pork. Both were very good. I tried the sweet potato casserole because of everyone rating it so highly and it was great but think Thanksgiving and candied yams, lots of sugar. My husband had the mac n cheese and thought it was very runny and lacked taste. We stopped by 2 days later to get some of the dessert that people raved about and I would pass on the bread pudding, not good. We didn't try the cobbler, wish I had )o: The service was good and the place is very casual. We would definitely go back anytime we are in the area!! read more

Myself and a buddy were on the way back home from OBX and hit this spot because of the glowing reviews and overall rating. Both BIG foodies, and lovers of barbecue and backyard smoking novices. We were thoroughly excited to experience some authentic NC BBQ; and our expectations were further heightened by the sight of a large line and almost full seating arrangement. I ordered brisket and chicken with Mac and cheese and fries; my buddy order brisket and pork with the same sides. I was a little surprised to have received shredded brisket instead of sliced brisket. The brisket was danced in sauce after being shredded; overall, not bad. But no bark to taste their rub, not much smoke, decent beef flavor. The chicken, I mostly just tasted the sauce although it was tender but again under seasoned. I tried by buddy's pork, and it wasn't pretty to look at. A grey, mush like, mass of zero to little flavor or texture. The pork was the biggest let down by far, although it was not sauced, I feel like they're relying too much on the sauce to be a saving grace. The Mac n cheese was average at best, the fries were nothing special. The hush puppies and cheesecake were the only food ordered that met expectations of what a local NC BBQ shack should be serving. Overall, the food felt lazy and lacking passion; I would not recommend to anyone seeking out good BBQ but more so recommend it to someone looking for a quick meal on their trip south to the OBX. read more

Seriously the best bbq ever. DO NOT skip this place. I moved to Florida over a year ago and the thing I miss most about living in Virginia is being able to drive to Currituck BBQ whenever I wanted it. I've literally been craving it for over a year. And I can't find anywhere down here that even has NC bbq. If I could get it shipped, I would. Must haves: pork bbq sandwich, fried okra, hush puppies, and mac and cheese. read more
