101 BEST RESTAURANTS IN AMERICA

Hello! Once again North Carolina is on the map and one of our fine dining establishments has made the list of 101 Best Restaurants in America. Let me introduce to you THE PIT http://www.thepit-raleigh.com  If you are in town and looking for good barbecue then look no further. It ranked #25 on the list. Barbecue is religion in the South, and without question, pitmaster Ed Mitchell is one of its patron saints. The legendary barbecue baron oversees this destination-worthy joint, specializing in North Carolina-style whole hog, pit-cooked 'cue. The word "authentic" should only be dispensed with caution when it comes to food, but Mitchell's generations-old family recipe is the real deal, widely regarded as the standard for its genre.
