Barbeque Restaurants near Kitty Hawk

“We walked into High Cotton on a day with a torrential downpour, the kind of weather where seafood just don’t sound right. You need the inviting warmth of a BBQ joint, so we headed over to high cotton. Now we got there during their last hour of business for the day, and experience has taught me to temper my expectations when you’re there in the waning minutes before close. However, I didn’t need to temper my expectations at all. High cotton is going to be a regular stop for us now when we’re in OBX. The meal we had absolutely blew us away. The pork was absolutely top-tier ENC BBQ: it hit the level of quality where saying one is better than the other is frivolous to me, it’s just all top-tier coz me. The fried chicken was tied for the I’ve ever had, and the brisket was fanatic as well. My daughter said the green beans & Brunswick stew were her favorite she’s had, and my son loved the Mac & cheese. To boot, the service was incredible, the joint was incredibly warm & inviting- you feel like you’re at home as soon as you walk in the door.“

“Ok - if yall haven’t been, or if you have been but you get sandwiches every time you go, I highly recommend you try their enormous “jumbo smoked chicken wings!”  I love their Italian, and they have great brisket and barbecue, but the “cackalacky wings” were awesome! AND - if Steven is working and you want them spicy hot, tell Molly at the register and she will have him hook you up! AND they have the battered fries that my wife loves so it’s a win-win! AND - they are one of the only restaurants on the northern end of the Outer Banks open all year. AND - a little birdie told me that sometime in March they will start having breakfast full-time as well!!!“
