City Barbeque — Charlotte
The Atlas Review
The BBQ Atlas
City Barbeque has been smoking competition-quality barbecue over local hickory since 1999, and this Charlotte outpost on J M Keynes Drive keeps the tradition going.
The smokehouse runs on-site smokers low and slow, the way the brand has done it from the start. Local hickory fuels the pits; the meat comes off when it's ready.
This is the University Place location — one branch of a multi-state operation that treats barbecue like a craft worth repeating properly. No shortcuts, just smoke and time.
