Best BBQ in the RTP area?

[Crazyotto]

I'll be down in the Duke/RTP area next week and would like to get some good BBQ. Any suggestions?

[jellybear]

Allen and Sons in Chapel Hill does it the old way with wood and the Master Pit Boss is in Raleigh at The PIT His name is Ed Mitchell and He whupped Bobby Flay on Showdown.Seriously You won't find any bad Que around there even the Chain Smithfields is pretty dang gone good.Make sure to try the Brunswick Stew while your at it!

Why would you eat that tomato based crap?

Drive to Parker's in Wilson for the real deal.

Or keep driving to B's in Greenville for the best of the best.
