Who has the BEST BBQ?? South Carolina OR North Carolina (RV East Coast Road Trip)

[@NQBully]

Jason said, "She should taste good." lol!!!!! Love u guys!!!

[@EECCTravels]

😂😂😂

[@NQBully]

@@EECCTravels Thanks for visiting my lovely City Va. Beach Va. Hopefully you guys enjoyed yourselves.

[@rlhubert]

Bummed that you guys didn’t tour Charleston or Morris Island. There is nothing better than walking around The Battery, Rainbow Row or taking beautiful pictures at The Morris Island Lighthouse. Charleston is my most favorite places in SC. I hope you guys try to see some part of the Outerbanks while in NC.

[@EECCTravels]

We plan on coming back to the Carolinas quite a bit.

[@beckyvasquez8930]

My grandma and mom used corn meal when firing oakra.

[@EECCTravels]

It's the best way!

[@jareece41489]

A couple points: 1.Brisket isn’t a Carolina BBQ staple. Texas holds that title. The Carolina’s are masters of pork. 2. The chains rarely have the soul of the culture. Mission is a chain. It’s an ok quick fix but you have to find the holes in the wall like Grady’s BBQ in Goldsboro or Skylight Inn in Ayden for true NC BBQ experience. 3. You’ve gotta try bbq with the vinegar to really know NC bbq. You guys are awesome and I really enjoy watching your adventures. Much love ✌🏾

[@bettybedsole9915]

When visiting family in Fayetteville NC we always stop at the BBQ Hut & we buy 10 lbs for us & 10 lbs for our friend. Best BBQ around!

[@teresalewelling7318]

Thank for sharing this with me. I was with you when you did video.

[@robingastonia9192]

Alot of movies were filmed in Wilmington. My sister and I were down at her house on Oak Island years ago when Matlock was being filmed, and in July of that year, we ran into them filming Matlock. We got to see Andy Griffith and crew in Southport, NC. Southport is a very nice area, very old and pretty. I am from North Carolina.

[@jessicac.226]

Any one else get a little distracted by the lady picking a wedgie @ 16:00 ? Bahahahaha!

[@EECCTravels]

Haha, we totally missed that!

[@winniebrazill9432]

My mom made fried okra all the time! She used a mixture of corn meal and flour and fried them in a cast iron skillet until they were crispy goodness! I miss them!

[@EECCTravels]

Our mommas cook the same!! ❤️

[@sonyarollins9930]

I was scrolling through and came across this video. I live in TN, but grew up in NC. The Cape Fear ran through the little town I am from. In my 20s, I worked at a BBQ restaurant that was on the bank of the river. I see others have posted that you didn’t get true Eastern NC BBQ and that you should have picked another dive.

[@EECCTravels]

We will be back!

[@Caroline-se7gh]

I have to say, Alisa, you are looking fantastic!! Edit.. (I hope that didn't sound wrong, you just do....ok Jason you look good too.....😁) I would love to do a road trip like that some day. We might just do an all county Ireland staycation next year.......!

[@EECCTravels]

Thank you 😊

[@wadewave4323]

Sooo…I live in Puerto Vallarta ½ of the year and ½ of the year in Calgary Canada. I have never saw a Modelo shirt like Jason has on. LOVE IT!!!

[@marfred4802]

FYI: Protocol is that RVers should ask management of any establishment that you would like to park at/in their lot. You will sleep much better if you know that it is OK and that law enforcement will not be knocking at your door. Some establishments that used to be quite open to campers are now not allowing it. BUT, I understand the peace of mind aspect as in not knowing who may come snooping around your Rig at all hours. Kudos to you for experiencing it anyway!!!

[@dctravels]

Great video! ( But Texas has some pretty great BBQ too !😁😉👍lol

[@EECCTravels]

Oh most definitely! We are planning a trip to Austin soon.

[@revcrum]

Never have Waldocked...it's a place to sleep. Did you not run your generator?

[@KyPapaw]

Yall need to try Shealy's BBQ in Batesburg S.C.. It's AWESOME!!

[@jasonweaver5622]

Got dern right!! So happy that Shealys is just 20 min away from where I live. That rice and gravy and a pulley bone ❤❤❤

[@salliestewart4713]

What campground did you stay in in myrtle beach and savanna?

[@EECCTravels]

We didn’t stay in Myrtle Beach, we just stopped for lunch. But we stayed at Red Gate Farms in Savannah.

[@robingastonia9192]

North Carolina piedmont of NC, Shelby NC....Bridges BBQ on 74...been there for YEARS. Open at 11:00 am Wednesday - Sunday. I have been going there for 68 years. They do not sell beer though, but a great restaurant.

[@andrewderry5156]

The movie Halloween kills was filmed in Wilmington NC

[@EECCTravels]

Really? That is cool! We watched it the day it came out.

[@salliestewart4713]

There were movies filmed in wilmington. Also Dawson's creek and one tree hill

[@heyodi3092]

True crime road trips sound like a great series.

[@noelcthompsen]

Mission BBQ is a chain, but you should have tried the vinager on the pulled pork. That is Eastern Carolina BBQ.

[@donaldstevens932]

Yeah, I can get Mission Barbecue in NJ.

[@trishkeller8228]

I had it in Annapolis this week. I wasn’t overly impressed. You need to stay local.

[@CoolNoahAndSeth]

I totally agree with that statement!! ;-)

[@dianedenroche1496]

It would be great if you can post the RV parks you stay at.

[@heyodi3092]

This is my favorite travel channel. I want this life one day!

[@EECCTravels]

Awe thank you 😊

[@SchoolJules13]

So bummed you didn't explore Charleston. I was looking forward to seeing it. You will have to go back, I like it better than Savannah. You should go to Beaufort, NC too!!! Love these places on the East coast.

[@reneeoverbeck7866]

Modelo shirt looks good on you!🍻

[@elizabethfraser9140]

I love the Looney Tunes carton sound affects in the back ground

[@bettybedsole9915]

A lot of the old homes in Wilmington are BnB's

[@DragonWarriorMama]

Such a pretty place too. I need to visit here sometime

[@LisasCruiseAdventures]

BBQ and Looney Tunes at PopPops, nothing like it. I really enjoyed this!

[@hopefuladventures]

I had That Myrtle beach restaurant when I visited in march. some of the best food i have ever had. But I also had home made cooking in NC which was better!! haha

[@alej8902]

Hi Alisa and Jason! Wonderful video as always 👍🏻👌🏻 Congratulations on 90K subscribers! 👏🏻❤️🎉 Thank you for taking us along

[@EECCTravels]

Thanks!!

[@QUEENDAGGER]

I apologize for being late watching your RV videos but if you down load the Goldbelly you are able to order Franklins BBQ to be delivered to you from anywhere in the US if it’s not sold out of course. Not to take away your experience of coming to Austin In The RV. Just an idea. ❤️

[@marfred4802]

Where was the N. Corolina Sauce/BBq? Love Y'all, but thought we were comparing N & S Carolina? Isn't it "in the sauce"??

[@alanhedlund9348]

Ok,whose watching cartoons?Jason?lol FYI,I have nvr had briscuit,or sweet potatoes,may try soon as im 64

[@ronicampbell7246]

Should've tried Smithfield's...it's a chain but it's SOOOOOO yummy.....and Jason, if you don't put the vinegar concoction on your BBQ--you are NOT having NC BBQ!

[@EECCTravels]

Yeah, you’re right. Next time!

[@mikesexton6619]

You can’t come to SC to get BBQ and order brisket. SC is a pulled pork state! SC is recognized for 4 sauces. Only the midlands area features the mustard based sauce.

[@denisecaines9610]

Y’all might want to keep an eye on the East Coast!! Cold and rainy!!

[@EECCTravels]

We are actually heading south already, this was recorded a couple of weeks ago. It takes about 2 weeks to get the footage edited and posted.

[@slotmazingdiva5269]

Y’all, your videos are so awesome. Up to and including the music. Thanks for keeping us entertained ❤️

[@EECCTravels]

Thank you 😊

[@ImTheDudeMan471]

#1. Dukes Barbeque, Walterboro, S.C. buffet family style

[@marshall.cochran]

Shealys bbq is where it’s at but you’re gonna have to go about 150 miles north from Charleston

[@kellijomatthewsbeachbum]

Next time go to Southport! It is beautiful!

[@Joe-lk6oc]

Yep, I too love fried okra!

[@kimmeador9817]

My family here in Ok uses cornmeal too !

[@lauriesmith5008]

Memphis is the place to get great barbecue.

[@morialittle8091]

Lived in Wilmington for 10 years before moving to Asheville… Loved it! Missed opportunity here… so many good places to eat in the area… Copper Penny and Cork N Fork that we’re on DDD! And if it was the Walmart off of Market, yeah it’s totally sketch at least it wasn’t the one in Monkey Junction, if has to be a Walmart I would recommend the one in Porters Neck LMAO. You were close to a KOA and I think there is a RV campsite in Carolina Beach. Better luck next time!

[@EECCTravels]

Yeah we are we’re limited on time but we are planning to come back!

[@totallytania7978]

What? No sticker for N. Carolina?😳

[@terireid651]

Semper Fi. Love USMC. GOD BLESS.

[@maryfettig3378]

Charleston is so beautiful!

[@billbritt9418]

We love you guys posts ! Please explore western NC!

[@EECCTravels]

We will be back for more!

[@tonia.5861]

The Loony Tunes intro music in the background made my day!🤣

[@jhadventures2745]

Mission BBQ is delicious but it is a chain so unfortunately you probably didn’t get the authentic NC barbecue experience. There’s a Mission BBQ here in Pittsburgh where we’re from!

[@andrewderry5156]

Glad to see y'all came thru The port city, Wilmington Nc!!

[@loud_n_deadly]

I wish y'all were able to try Rodney Scott's BBQ near downtown. That's the good stuff.

[@mcrican182]

Texas

[@erikfox3238]

If in North Carolina you should really try livermush. I'm sure you could make a great video about your first livermush expierence

[@jasonweaver5622]

YALL! Love the videos but y’all messed up on the BBQ. Sc native here and that might have been tasty but brisket IS NOT typical sc bbq. Pulled pork, chicken quarters, hash and rice….w mustard sauce. That’s what we do best around here….and honestly it’s better in the midlands of SC, columbia, irmo, Lexington etc. keep making awesome videos. Much love

[@amyreynolds3619]

You miss Charleston it is beautiful and very nice and warm

[@eileenmayberry2731]

If you want good bbq, you should come 6o Southern Illinois!!!

[@EECCTravels]

Interesting… I have never really heard of IL being big on bbq. Where do you recommend?

[@CarolinadueNorth]

Y’all are gonna have to come back to NC and try BBQ in Greenville, NC

[@TheHokkaidogaijin]

Any time you try BBQ other than Texas you are just settling for 2nd Best..

[@CarmenandBrian]

As an NC native who's also had property in Myrtle Beach for probably 20+ years I like BBQ from both states but I'm still partial to the vinegar heavy NC BBQ. 🙂

[@EECCTravels]

We are hoping our son gets to move to NC later this year and we will be back for more!

[@CarmenandBrian]

@@EECCTravels Cool! 🙂

[@dfbtravels5924]

Next time you guys come to NC or SC you need to try cook out its like a whataburger or in and out but better and they have good barbacue and burgers

[@michaelmcshane189]

enjoyed your video! thanks for taking me along!

[@JourneyWithTheGingers]

So happy you guys visited our beautiful state of South Carolina. And, yes, Mandy Matney’s Murdaugh Murders podcast is amazing!!! 👩🏻‍🦰❤️👩🏻‍🦰

[@janburkett2708]

Myrtle Beach is one of our fav vacay spots! We will have to try that BBQ place next time. It looked delish!

[@robwhitley7902]

Go to Charleston for great BBQ. We have Mission also. Good but a chain. Neither NC or SC BBQ.

[@smm2k13]

I like ketchup based with beef and mustard based with pork.

[@BourbonBytes]

Disappointed that you guys skipped Charleston. One of my favorite cities in the country and I was happy to call it home for about 6 years. Hopefully y’all make it back down that way sometime because it’s definitely worth visiting for the food and the beautiful streets and historic homes. Even if just for a day trip.

[@EECCTravels]

We will most definitely be back! The weather was really bad and we wouldn’t have been able to do it right and we couldn’t add any more time on this trip.

[@BourbonBytes]

@@EECCTravels glad to hear it! Looking forward to seeing all the other places you’ve visited so far.

[@beckymungo1333]

Wasn't the South Carolina BBQ thinner?

[@jasonweaver5622]

Well, to be fair SC dosnt do Brisket. We are know for pulled pork

[@cathydrew2569]

Nice campsite.

[@luvysfatlife]

Nice video guys! Call me next time in NC and we will check out local NC BBQ places. Missions is a franchise based out of Maryland if I recall. Gotta find those hole in the wall BBQ places. There are many great ones in NC/SC. The best is made in your backyard though!😜😂.

[@EECCTravels]

We didn’t know it was a franchise, it just had the best reviews in the area. And yeah Jason’s bbq is the best!

[@luvysfatlife]

@@EECCTravels yeah, Jason and I have talked BBQ before and I know we both have a passion for it! It’s hard to get good BBQ at a restaurant if you know how to cook it yourself. Enjoying your video adventures up the east coast!

[@EECCTravels]

Hey bud Jason here. Yeah we don’t have Mission BBQ or never even heard of it anywhere close to where we live, and we were limited on time so we couldn’t research as much as we’d liked. I was Leary when I saw it though…it look like a chain for sure…lol! With that said Mission had the best reviews in that area that we were in so we had to pull the trigger before we left town. Im gonna do a full on fully researched Best BBQ Tour from Austin Texas, through Kansas City, Memphis Tennessee, and on up into the Carolina’s, to really dive into it soon. I’ll be hitting you up for some places to go in your area for sure! Yep when you can cook good BBQ its hard to beat which makes it harder to find superior BBQ. I want to learn from the best for sure! I did learn some cool tricks from Pop Pop’s and I’ll tell you about them later! 👍

[@luvysfatlife]

@@EECCTravels Jason you mentioned Franklins. I’m a big fan of Aaron Franklins books. I want to try it when I go to Austin! Have a great one buddy. You should do a BBQ crawl in NC. I’d like to as well.

[@clayedwards7561]

Mission BBQ isn’t bad, for a chain restaurant and totally admire their patriotism. Although good, NOT the place to try real NC BBQ. Brisket is not a NC BBQ staple. Eastern NC BBQ is whole hog with vinegar based sauce. Hope you can try some non chain places some other time.

[@jeanneshull8488]

That is not a South Carolina mustard base sauce. You need to venture further in the middle of the state to get true mustard base.

[@EECCTravels]

We will be back!

[@amyreynolds3619]

South Carolina uses pulled pork with mustard sauce and North Carolina has sliced beef or pork with vinegar in ketchup sauce

[@FREEDOMREDBIRD]

Those houses were beautiful and the river walk too!

[@karenglaicar5486]

Thanks for the tour. Nice showdown but not fair one was a dive and NC was alot more uppercrust lol should of picked another dive in NC. Cheers. Take care.

[@smm2k13]

You should try Little Pigs BBQ in Columbia, SC! Best BBQ ever!

[@cravenmorehead1552]

Props to yall for not trashing Mission, I've not had a good experience with the chain, the only BBQ that measures up comes from our own back yards ,am I right Jason??

[@EECCTravels]

That is a true story! We don’t have Mission BBQ or never even heard of it where we are from we didn’t know and it had the best reviews in that area we were in. I was very leery when I saw it though because it looked like a chain. Lol 🤷‍♂️

[@michelleb6291]

Mission is my favorite chain BBQ restaurant. It doesn't beat my local go to spot, but their food is solid and so is their mission to support military, law enforcement, and first responders.

[@teresapeacock3844]

On the way home with our new trailer, my husband and I boondocked at several locations including a Cracker Barrel, Walmart, Bass Pro Shop, and a casino. We slept very comfortably.

[@traceydriver3171]

A good rule of thumb is if there’s “sauce” on it, it’s not good barbecue. It should be about the smoke.

[@CoolNoahAndSeth]

Next time y’all come to SC/NC…I’ll guide you to the best bbq places! ;-)

[@erinsims6266]

What crime podcasts do you listen to? Crime junkie to the tee here! Love them! I can recommend some good ones if you need them, but would love to hear the ones you enjoy!

[@EECCTravels]

We are listening to a bunch of different ones. Whatever my Podcast app recommendeds we try out.

[@lorettachapman4244]

@@EECCTravels lol

[@brittneyhoneycutt6551]

My favorite BBQ place is in Alabama called Lawlers BBQ.

[@sherrispringer5152]

The Murdaugh mystery is something else! We were visiting Hilton Head from Tennessee and drove to Hampton and saw all the sights like the law firm and the bridge where the wreck happened! Great day trip for a rainy day

[@EECCTravels]

It was a very interesting story

[@jasonwiggins6137]

Ribs and Brisket is Texas BBQ. Carolina BBQ is a whole pig cooked on a grill or open fire/coals. Next time through SC, try Sweetman's BBQ in HollyHill. BBQ, Hash, Skins, etc. You can also visit the pits where the pigs are cooked over an open flame/coals and the type of wood is extremely important. That's the Carolina BBQ experience!!

[@sandinmaheye1]

Upstate NY has bbq.. just saying. Syracuse has dinosaur bbq. I haven’t been there in a few years though. They sell there sauce in grocery stores locally.

[@sandinmaheye1]

PS Weather here upstate ny is 50 degrees currently.

[@ashleys4652]

But you HAVE to go to Charleston sometime! It is comparable to New Orleans in regards to being a total food city. Love the upscale Southern fine dining restaurants, the good old comfort food places, and the divine seafood restaurants.

[@EECCTravels]

Oh we will!!

[@kathrynjajich6705]

TY for your travel videos! Just thinking, it would be fun to look up the DDD website for whatever town you’re traveling to & you’ll probably hit on some GOOD restaurants!! I’ve been to a couple he’s reviewed & they’ve not disappointed me & my family. Looking forward to more great videos from you two as u make ur way north!

[@EECCTravels]

We have checked but it hasn’t worked out for this trip. Most of the restaurants seem to be in the bigger cities and we were sticking to smaller towns this time.

[@beckymungo1333]

These are the Southern Houses ..but you habe them in NOL too.

[@donnahutchins5877]

You really need to eat at Lexington BBQ in Lexington, NC. That’s where “pit BBQ” originated. Try looking up the history on it

[@EECCTravels]

Will do!

[@kellykiker3894]

You can come to Lexington and boondock in my driveway!

Sometimes Guy and DDD film but don't air the footage. I friend of mine had a restaurant in Nashville that Guy filmed in 5 years ago and it never made the show.

I love fried okra with cornmeal as well. Glad you enjoyed the brisket!

[@donnawood4745]

Missions barbecue is a chain they don’t even cook their own barbecue on site it’s done at a big plan

[@billbritt9418]

You should know that North Carolina has two distinct types of barbecue. Eastern, and the best one, Lexington style.
