Very reasonably priced restaurant considering the amazing quality of food. Both the Smokeshow Salad and the Turkey are incredibly juice and perfectly flavoued . Hoping to go back again soon and trying more of their menu.
I’ve been to a lot of BBQ joints, but the brisket at The Pig Pin by Fat Man stands out. It’s got that perfect crust and melts in your mouth. Glad I Found my new favorite spot!
Alyssa was absolutely amazing, and so was the chef. We arrived with a pretty big group, and they handled us courteously and with grace. The food was delicious, too. Will definitely be coming back.
The BBQ is what made the trip even though it was pretty fatty tonight. The wings weren't great, they seemed under cooked and fatty also.
The girl taking our order (which received a tip) stayed in the back talking, we had to struggle to get her attention to get things we needed like refills.
Stopped in to just have a snack, try it out. Got the STICKY RIBS that were on special, they came out room temperature and needed to cook longer the meat was very TOUGH. Good portion for the price, just needed a-little more time to be ready!
Price was pricey small portions and when I wanted to refill there seem to be a problem after paying $3 for tea I don't live in town but if I did I wouldn't eat there again
Finally was able to stop and try The Pig Pin had seen a lot of suggestions but did not know what to order so was assisted and recommended the loaded baked potato. We also ordered the wings and fries and the wrap and fries.
For the price, I would’ve expected better. The potato had brisket, cheese, fried onion s and a side of sour cream but not a lot of taste. The wings were good portion but sauce was underwhelming. I believe the only good was the wrap and fries. At least I tried it but would not go out of the way to try again
I catered our exchange club meal through The Pig Pin by Fat Man and it did not disappoint. The service from the first time I called until I picked up my order was excellent. I'm not a Mac N Cheese fan but I gotta say it was the best I've ever had. All the Food was delicious!
What a hidden gem! We loved them as a food trunk and love them even more now that they have a brick-and-mortar location. The smoked meats are some of the best around. We had the brisket, barbeque sandwich, gouda mac and cheese, coleslaw and their own bottled barbeque sauce. All pros no cons. You have to try them. Don't let the fact that they are located in the bowling alley keep you from trying them. A Local family-owned and operated business and a veteran as well. They are 100% on point!

I was driving thru, saw a sign for BBQ. It was attached to the bowling alley. I went in and glad I did! Sat morning $1 smoked wings and $4 pork sandwiches.
Wow, it was great. Jay really knows how to make smoked meats. Tasted great, texas style sauce and rubs in the center of NC. It was a real treat to the taste buds.
Worth a stop, the wings were by far the best I've had in NC; dryrubbed, slow smoked and a touch of sauce. At a $1 a piece, I felt like I stole them.
Inside was nice and clean, in fact I had so much fun I reserved a lane to bowl a game.

Got recommendation for The Pig Pin from one of my office friend, and it was truly a brilliant experience. Really nice food and huge portions. Their brisket is out of this world—definitely worth checking out!
