"Whether you’ve never had our state’s BBQ, or you grew up on it, you should visit Picnic for a plate of whole hog that holds true to North Carolina’s barbecue traditions. This northwest Durham outpost is a bit more expensive than some other options in town, but the slow-cooked pork is extremely high quality and the sides are fantastic. Try the fried okra and coleslaw, and save room for dessert staples like the banana pudding and chocolate chess pie. Picnic’s casual dining room and covered porch are always full of kids and their parents, making it feel like a cross between a community center and a large family reunion. photo credit: Anna Barzin" - Eric Ginsburg
