North Carolina BBQ Q&A

We have been discussing breaking down the restaurants into their closest major cities, as opposed to just doing a generic listing. So when you come to the Restaurants forum, it would be broken down something similar to the following:

Asheville

Boone/Wilkesboro

Hickory/Statesville

Charlotte/Gastonia/Monroe/Concord

Salisbury/Kannapolis

Lexington

Winston-Salem/Greensboro/High Point

Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill

Fayetteville

Lumberton/Whiteville

Wilmington

New Bern/Jacksonville

Goldsboro/Kinston

Rocky Mount/Wilson/Greenville

Elizabeth City/Outer Banks

Is this a good breakdown? Please comment before this list becomes 'official'. Thanks!

Suggested revisions posted in above thread.

Looks great Donald, now how about some route lists?  My suggestions would be:

I-40
I-85
I-77
I-26
I-95
I-73/74
US-64 (from Raleigh to the coast)
US-70 (from Raleigh to the coast)
US-17
US-74 (from Wilmington to Tenn.)

Looks like a lot, but any or all would be helpful for foreigners to NC.  I probably missed a couple.

What do you think?
