When you walk in, they make you feel like family. The service was excellent. We ordered three drinks and three buffets which totaled $63.48. We waited about 10 minutes for a table before the Hostess took us to our table and brought us our drinks. The food was amazing, and the cabbage was my favorite. It was the BEST thing on the menu. The good: Fried chicken wings Cabbage Fried Fish Mashed Potatoes/Gravy Pulled Pork The bad: Mac and cheese - it was awful Okra (too Slimy) Chicken Livers (overcooked) Unfortunately, the foods are mostly fried items. The desserts were average- they had slices of vanilla cake, strawberry cake, banana pudding, ice cream and Jello. If you are really hungry, this is the place where you can eat good, home cooked southern food. B+

This restaurant is very clean with a very welcoming atmosphere (seating inside and out) and clean restrooms. The waitstaff are always very attentive and just all around good people. The cooks are amazing and cook your food just as you order. Very kid friendly, I've been bringing my kids here from wee little ones to teenagers. If you have not checked out their Christmas events with Santa flying in on a plane, you need to check it out. No matter how old you are, you will enjoy it. The elves will parachute from the plane while they put on a show, and Santa will fly in to greet the kids. This place is all around awesome!! Check it out if you're in the area drive-in or fly in it all works!! Thank you Pik-N-Pig for always being awesome!!

Drove out here from Raleigh on a Saturday because this restaurant was recommended by a friend…read more Everything here was disappointing. When we arrived we were asked inside or outside, I chose outside, then got seated inside, because the outside tables were "wet." Waitress and rest of the service was very good. We had the pulled pork and brisket plates. The brisket was very lean. The pulled pork had almost no fat. The Honey BBQ sauce had absolutely no honey in it. The "better than sex" cake was advertised to have condensed milk and caramel in it. Sadly, not the case. IMHO not worth the drive from the Triangle.

Shuler's is located off I-95, Exit 181A heading towards Marion and Myrtle Beach. You have to drive…read morea mile or so from the exit but it's easy to spot. The place is a large wooden building that resembles something that would have been built in the 1870's. There are a few bench's and chairs on the front porch to relax in after eating or if you need to wait for a table. They have a general store with some interesting items as well. Schuler's is a buffet style barbecue and all you can eat. Their pulled pork is their best meat. I wasn't really impressed with their ribs though. Don't get me wrong, the were pretty good but I certainly wasn't blown away. Their fried chicken is good but again not much different from most buffets in South Carolina. Their collards are nice and they do offer hash. If you're thinking corn beef hash, it's not that. It's a BBQ or liver hash and it's definitely an acquired taste. I usually put it over rice if I get it. Hash was highly popular in South Carolina for many years. It can't hurt to try it as Schuler's is actually pretty good. Not my favorite barbecue in the area but it's cool place with great people.

The staff was very friendly, the service was good...I had takeout but the restaurant is a buffet inside. It clearly is a place the locals enjoy and it is an easy stop if you are on the way to the beach. All in all, my favorite was actually the hot dog. The chili was excellent and the slaw had just a touch of sweetness. The BBQ was well prepared, just not my favorite style or taste profile...a bit too much twang. I would recommend Shuler's if you are in the area and look forward to trying other items the next time I return.

My wife and I caught up with Marty's BBQ truck after run club at Potent Potables last weekend…read more Craving something fried and bad for you, we could t decide between the hush puppies and the fried Mac and cheese bites, so we did the only sane thing and got both! Only had to wait about 4-5 minutes and they ready, fried to perfection. Both tasted great, and both hit a craving we had. I've also gotten their BBQ plate in the past, which they pack full of meat, and have a few different sauce options, Esther you like a sweet BBQ sauce or a vinegar based, they've got you covered The order of hush puppies and Mac and cheese bites only came to $7 total, which is a great value compared to food from other trucks!

Marty's BBQ #2 on Wheels plates come with your choice of two sides. For the Large BBQ Plate, Jerry…read moreand I went with Baked Beans and Onions Rings so sweet, crunchy, and amazing that we didn't even use ketchup. Hands down, the onion rings were my favorite side of the items we sampled (and this was after a twenty minute trip from the food truck back to our house). The chopped BBQ was tender but not lean enough for our preferences. The vinegar based dip had some pepper flakes scattered throughout and accented the pork without overwhelming it. Jerry and I were sharing everything. He cut the chop in half from the Pork Chop Plate. We took one bite, looked at the each other, and said, "We should have gotten the 2 piece Pork Chop Plate!" Not exactly hidden, but listed innocuously in the middle of the plate and sandwich sections, you'll find the 1Pc and 2Pc Pork Chop Plate as well as a Pork Chop Sandwich option.. Lightly dusted with seasoned flour and fried, the pork chop was golden and crusted on the outside and impeccably tender and juicy in the middle. We got a little carried away and ate it with our bare hands. There was no foolin' around with a knife and fork. Our two sides were French Fries and freshly made Cole Slaw flecked with color from carrots and red cabbage. Marty packed our Chicken Sub to the point of overflowing with scrumptious chucks of charred white-meat chicken, grilled peppers, sautéed onions, mushroom, and mayo. The sesame seed roll literally would not hold any more. For an additional $2, you can make it a combo with Fries and a Drink. As we unwrapped the Double Cheeseburger, I think our eyes widen to twice their normal size. Trust me when I say I had no idea the burger would be this big. I don't want to dampen Marty's Double Cheeseburger sales, but a single would have been plenty if you're using it as a chaser to the Large BBQ Plate, Pork Chop Plate, and Chicken Sub. The double burger was hand-pattied, and Marty must have huge man-hands. Covered in cheese, slaw, homemade chili, mustard, and onion, those juicy bad boys were a towering food lover's dream to behold. Or...Have your burger your way with lettuce, tomato and onion if that's more your style.

In the Carolinas, there are quite a few BBQ joints that fly under the radar because they are…read morelocated in small towns well removed from the interstate. This is one of them. There is no seating inside the building, but take your meal and walk around to the back. Here you will find a truly unique picnic seating. The price point here is superb. $26 bought two trays-- chopped pork with sides of coleslaw and mac 'n cheese, a rib plate (4 bones) with sides of baked and green beans, a sausage link, and two cans of diet Pepsi. The mac 'n cheese, which is an in-house recipe, is one of the ten best that we have so far found in BBQ circles nationwide (346 stops in 35 states) . The coleslaw is neutral, making it ideal to cleanse the palate as you move between different meats. We also liked the beans, especially the green beans. The sausage link had good snap and flavor. and the in-house vinegar sauce really brought the pork to life, but our meat of choice here would be the ribs. Beautifully prepared, with a clean bite and a tasty rub and light sauce, they are simply delicious. So, we strongly recommend that you make the effort to get here ... but go early! We were eighth in line at the opening, and worried that we might miss out because, as is always the case in the universe of small town American BBQ, when it's sold out, they are done for the day.

Southern Smoke BBQ provided free food to the first 500 people, so I can imagine how much work they did to prepare the food. The pulled pork was the best North Carolina barbecue I have had so far. It was so moist, flavorful, and well-shredded. It had enough flavor that did not require additional sauce. However, their bottled vinegar sauce did add an extra oopmh, that I would still recommend adding. Their mac and cheese made with penne pasta was also very good. The pasta was a little overcooked to my taste but I still enjoyed it. It was creamy and packed with cheese. I could eat this every day. The coleslaw was good too, more on the sweeter side, but not overly sweet. Will need to stop by the restaurant next time I'm in the area!
