Being from out of town and depending on the advice of locals, we stopped for supper at Little Pigs Barbeque ????. The hush puppies were beyond words. The ribs outstanding. The best part about southern BBQ is that they really prepare the meats. And it was the best. Don't let the outside deter you, this is THE place for good BBQ.
My favorite is the small chopped tray. BBQ and Slaw, & it comes with 2 hushpuppies. Great taste! Always good!!
Nice decor, friendly people. Captures BBQ joint nicely in look. Meat was moist and tasty. This places suffers from the problem of a lot of places. It offers variety at the expense of quality. They need to focus on their 6-7 best items and do those excellent and cut the rest. Biggest fault is no pickels. I've never been to a BBQ place that didn't have pickels. Hush puppies should be made fresh or have a limited shelf life. Cold hush puppies which are grease soggy are not that desired. Sauce lacks distinction. If your close by it's a place to stop for a sandwich, but going a ways out of your way to get it is maybe not your best use of time.
Little pigs is the best barbecue in Catawba county in my opinion. They are the only local barbecue restaurant that actually smokes their own meat on site. Everything is absolutely delicious. The Brunswick stew is out of this world! If there is a downside it would be the portion size to price ratio. But then again, good barbecue is not cheap and cheap barbecue is not good.
