How to Spend 24 Hours in Raleigh, North Carolina (Updated 2025)

"For lunch I typically bring people to The Pit Authentic BBQ in the Warehouse District for true Eastern-style whole-hog, pit-cooked barbecue — think slow-cooked pulled-and-chopped pork dressed with vinegar-based sauce — and I often order baby back ribs or whole-hog chopped barbecue with Southern sides like Brunswick stew, heirloom cabbage collards, and fried green tomatoes." - Matthew Kepnes
