B's Barbecue

The three most important words I can share with you about this spot is GET THERE EARLY! B's BBQ is the spot to go to if you are looking for a no-frills A+ barbecue joint. Please be advised that this is not the spot for you if you are expecting ambience, low lighting, or Michelin-rated tiny plates of rabbit food. But, you can go expecting good old down home, wholesome eating! My fave is the chicken. Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to try the ribs because I can't seem to get there early enough! But one day I will...and when I do, I'll check back in.The sisters who take your order offer service with a friendly and welcoming smile. They even give you tips on how to get the ribs and to beat the rush. But you gotta be willing to get up early in the morning.It's so good, we drove from Raleigh and would do it again and again, and again!BTW - don't be afraid of the line. It moves fast.Happy eating!

Had the BBQ pulled pork sandwich hundreds of times. Best pulled pork in the World! The vinegar sauce just as amazing. Service is quick and the place is clean. If you are Ever in Greenville NC you can't miss B's.

You know that you are going someplace special when you turn off the main highway and it's B's Barbeque Road that takes you to your destination! And B's fully lived up to our expectations; indeed, my significant other needed only one bite of the smoked chicken to proclaim it the best that she had tasted anywhere in the country.We ordered half a chicken and a mountain of chopped pork, with sides of coleslaw and green beans to go with finger shaped hush puppies. Add in a couple of refillable teas, and the whole came to the modest sum of $18.50. The chopped pork is classic East Carolina, and so is the sauce. Since the richly smoked meat is already lightly sauced, you really, really want to sample it before adding more. The green beans didn't impress us, but we liked the hush puppies and loved the coleslaw, which is that cold, palate cleansing bite that we always prize when eating two or more meats at a sitting.How good was the meal? We went back for seconds, and got the last chicken about 90 minutes after they opened. GO EARLY!

Some of the best BBQ in North Carolina. You have to place your order from outside to go. But get there early because there's always a long line. Not to worry it is well worth the wait. I highly recommend.

Some of the best BBQ in the area. Definitely worth a look. Try the chicken for sure. It is great!

From the outside, B's may look like a total sketchy dive, but don't let that scare you...because to me this is one of the best places on the planet to eat. Not only because of the wonderful memories of BBQ sandwiches and BBQ chicken on Saturdays with my grandaddy, but also because of the unparalleled perfection of the food. B's does the best BBQ everything I've ever had that wasn't cooked at one of my family reunions. This is the way eastern NC BBQ is supposed to taste. In fact, for me...if it ain't B's I ain't eating it. It ruins you for every place else. Pro Tips for Eating from B's: (cause yeah...I've eaten there that much...lol)1. Get there early. When the food runs out, they close up shop. If they don't run out, they'll stay open until 1:30-2ish. If you get there early enough ( between 7- 8am) you might be lucky enough to get on the list for a rack of their amazing ribs. But those go super fast. So set your alarm. You can buy chicken and BBQ pretty much anytime from about 9am on. The chickens will very likely be sold out by about 11ish...depending on the time of year and how busy they are. 2. There is no calling ahead. They don't have a phone. You will have to wait in the line. But it moves fast because these folks know what they're doing and because they aren't taking calls. Also, it gives you plenty of time to know what you want. 3. Bring cash! No phone means no way to run credit cards or take digital payments. 4. Get the BBQ sandwich to eat immediately. It's truly God's gift to those of us living in the dark ages over here east of I95. There is just nothing like that hot BBQ and cold slaw on that freshly steamed bun. Y'all might have broadband internet and a Starbucks on every corner over in Raleigh, but we get fresh B's BBQ sandwiches on the regular. So it all evens out. 5. Get a combo plate to go. It comes with chicken (your choice of light or dark meat), two sides, and corn sticks. My husband and I always get the large with double potatoes and an extra pint each of potatoes and slaw. We can usually get a couple of meals out of it. You can also buy whole or half BBQ chickens and BBQ, slaw, and sides by the pint or half pint. Don't miss out on the "red" (BBQ) potatoes. They are the best you'll find. If you're taking it to go, you'll also want them to package your corn sticks on the side so they don't get soggy. If you're sharing a plate, order extra of those too so you don't fight over them. And...don't forget to ask for extra sauce, especially if you plan on reheating your score later. 6. Take a cooler to keep your B's goodies nice and warm til you get home. Except the slaw. You want it cold (another good reason for ordering it separately from your plate). 7. Think of your friends. If you love someone, there's no greater kindness you can do than gifting them a pint of BBQ and slaw. In fact, before my husband retired, that was what I sent to his Christmas party potluck. I always got a clean crockpot back. It's also great to take for families dealing with births, funerals, parties...or just a nice thank you. 8. If you're driving a distance to come...buy extra. Trust me. You're always gonna wish you had just a little more when it runs out. And...you can freeze it. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk on how to best enjoy eastern NC's finest BBQ establishment. I hope that many tasty adventures await you. Trust me, once you've had B's, you'll find yourself coming back again and again. Happy eating!

The food is good but the service suck. It's first come first serve..But I witnessed something like racism or playing favorites while being looked over three times. Shame on you...Friday, May 24 10 am services lady

Got there late and only a few things left. Barbecue was moist and delicious. Kids discovered corn sticks for the first time. Service was polite and price was great.
