Morris Barbeque

OMG!!! We were on vacation in NC, and were planning to drive from Greenville to an area west of Burgaw. So, I decided to look for unqique spots along the way and just by chance, found Morris BBQ. It's only open on Saturdays, and luck would have it, it was Saturday!I'll never forget coming around the corner along the highway and seeing Morris BBQ, with a crowd out in front. I love East Carolina BBQ, and Morris has the best I've ever had. They ship, so I'm planning on ordering some online once I get back to Oklahoma. A big thanks to the staff who were all amazingly friendly! I just love this place!~David W.

Morris Barbecue might be a bit off the beaten path for many and it's only open on Saturday, but it's fantastic and worth the drive. After calling ahead to reserve ribs and pork skins, we drove down in early January and were treated to outstanding eastern-NC style chopped pork and ribs. The chopped pork was perfectly moist, and featured just the right amount of seasoning. Ribs were similarly moist, flavorful, and featured plenty of meat on the bones. The slaw complemented the pork perfectly. The hush puppies deserve special mention: they were hot, crispy, moist, and with a perfect texture. As far as the pork skins go, if you are expecting the sort of fried pork skins you find in the convenience store, this is a different style but delicious in their own right. Pro tip: the online menu suggests preordering ribs, skins, and bones. You should definitely call ahead a day or two to reserve those items as they really do sell out very quickly. While most seemed to order to go, we ate in the tiny dining room. Everyone working in the restaurant stopped by to say hello, ask where we were coming from, and made sure that everything was good. In addition to some of the best eastern BBQ I've ever eaten, Morris Barbecue topped it off by making the entire experience a pleasure. Highly, highly recommended and absolutely worth the drive down on a Saturday!

This is as good as it gets for Eastern NC bbq. The bbq and ribs here are the best I've had even to skylight inn. The cole slaw is right on and good hush puppies to go with and the house vinegar sauce is icing on the cake. Staff super nice! Wanna try skins next time to go with Q.

I live in Greensboro NC but I grew up in snow Hill this place here has the best Eastern BBQ you could ever hope for love this place

All the reviews were right. Great little BBQ place only opened on Saturday from 8:00-2:00 pm. They were already out of BBQ ribs but still plenty of BBQ. However you can call ahead and reserve any of the items. So if you want to try the ribs and know you going by there, call AHEAD! Apparently, the pork skins are a hot commodity, we got the last ones because someone didn't pick theirs up. We weren't big fans but I think that is just a personal taste.Definitely try to make a trip to their BBQ place if you are in town!

Ive eaten Morris BBQ my entire life. So has my dad. So has my aunt, cousins, etc... I love this place. I love the people who work there. I love the bbq, I love the slaw, and I love the hush puppies. They catered my wedding lol... so perhaps Im a bit biased. But consider this... since I introduced Morris BBQ to my shift partner at work, he will not eat any other kind of bbq. Do yourself a favor, take a nice ride thru the country to Hookerton one Saturday mid morning, and stop to get a plate.

Nothing I can say that others haven't, a truly great bunch of people working hard to keep the rest of us fat and happy. I was truly blessed to have met someone in my hometown that told me " you have to go Morris bbq on your visit", no joke I owe them one!I had exceptional ribs and hush puppies as well as bbq sandwich, I don't eat slaw so not qualified to say but would assume very good too as there were people picking up gallon containers for Memorial Day parties.If you have it shipped, pray the driver leaves some for you....

Best barbecue I have ever had. Only open one day a week, Saturday, quality is always great. Friendly service

Unique experience. Only open Saturday. If you want ribs, bones or skin you need to pre order. The bbq was moist and tasty. The service was down home friendly

Delicious southern barbecue! Small family run barbecue place. Menu is limited. Must go early because sometimes they run out!
