chop: I forgot to mention that I feel similar about steaks that you do about burgers. I’ve had $100 steaks that I honestly don’t think are any better than what I can do with a good cut of meat, my spice rack and my smoker. I’m not saying I’m all world (I’m not), but a steak out just isn’t worth the price when I can do something that I personally think is as good or better for a fraction of that. I rarely order steak out and always go for items that I either don’t enjoy making, or ones that require a lot of ingredients that I don’t want to stock. The latter is why I’m more apt to buy a burger or stir fry out.
Mac: Country BBQ is the lesser known of Greensboro’s “big 2” of BBQ. Stameys has the location, nostalgia and big clock, but Country BBQ actually has the good food. It’s next to a strip club on Wendover, so the location isn’t good. The caveat I would say is that they are in the family tree (literally, I think they are actually family) with the owners of Lexington BBQ (big barn). If you like that style of BBQ, then this is similar, but with slightly more kick. If you don’t, then you’re not going to be a fan. If you go, save some room for the cobbler at the end, as it is one of the best desserts you will have at a BBQ joint in this price point.
