Best Restaurants Along I-95 in the Carolinas | Eater Carolinas
"Sure, Cook Out is a large chain with locations across the South, but it was founded in North Carolina and no Carolina road trip would be complete with a Cook Out platter and a shake. Burgers, barbecue, chicken, hot dogs, and more are available alongside sides like onion rings, hush puppies, coleslaw, mac ‘n cheese, and fries. The shakes alone are worth a stop, with dozens of different options like banana pineapple, chocolate chip cherry, and peanut butter fudge. In fact, the shakes have such a following that Joe Biden stopped by a Durham Cook Out with his granddaughter during the 2020 campaign." - Matt Lardie
