| - PSST! Hey, wanna know where the best barbeque in the Queen City is? Come closer, let me whisper it in your ear.
It ain't in Charlotte.
Nope. It's in Indian Land.
At the appropriately named 521 BBQ and Grill, because it's on - wait for it - Rte. 521 (or Old Charlotte Hwy, once you cross into South Carolina), you're going to be treated to some of the finest barbeque and ribs you've ever sampled. Now, listen up, because this means something: I am not a big fan of barbeque, and, yes, I've sampled some of the more well-known barbeque establishments in town. I like 'em, but, honestly, I can't say any of them make me want to fall in love with barbeque the way every Southerner is required by Southern law to love barbeque. I'm a Yankee, so I've got that going against me.
But 521's barbeque and ribs is different. I can't explain it. Again, I'm a Yankee. My point of reference is Tony Roma's. Yeah. I don't know what kind of secret sauce they put on their barbeque and ribs, but whatever it is, it makes me crave the living hell out of their food almost weekly. I will likely die of a heart attack because of 521 BBQ and Grill.
Damn you. Why did you have to taste so good?
