I haven't had good carolina style around here, but I do like me some DC City Smokehouse.

We've had better pork from Shane's Rib Shack than from Famous Dave's, and we live close to the Alexandria location so it's convenient. I didn't really like Rocklands when we tried it. Haven't had a chance to try Old Glory yet, but heard decent things.

Honestly, the best pulled pork has come out of my crockpot I use a vinegar-based sauce.


I agree with all of these assessments!! So that means can you post your crockpot recipe!! Thanks.

The Carolina referred to by OP was, I'm guessing, North Carolina (vinegar based, not mustard based). I have yet to find pulled pork in the DC area that is on par with what I could get anywhere in Eastern NC. That said, Willard's out on Rte 50 was pretty good.


Willard's is great. I love their pulled pork, and their sides are excellent too. My husband, a Texan who is very picky about BBQ, gives Willard's a thumbs-up. Dixie Bones is good too.

Carolina Brothers in Ashburn. They are literally exactly what you are looking for... Pork brought up from North Carolina and prepared Carolina style.

I like Pork Barrel's pulled pork. They have a NC style sauce to top it - but it doesn't have a lot of sauce on it. They do have a smoker but you won't see the chips (it's on the roof or something due to neighboorhood requests)

Vinegar-y, Carolina-style?

A visiting relative is asking, and I have no idea.
