  • Not my cup of slaw I'll start off by saying I'm not from Gastonia. If you live there and love RO's, then you already know about it and nothing I say here will make any difference other than annoy you because I'm going to insult a local institution. If you are not from Gastonia, and you're in town looking for some Carolina barbecue, you'd be well advised to keep looking because you probably aren't going to like it. One of the things I like about traveling on business is that I get to visit local places that are off the tourist path. RO's in Gastonia appeared to fill the bill. It's a dive with architecture in the Early Utility Shed style. The parking lot was covered up with cars and people. Some people were eating in their cars and staff members were running out to the cars to take orders. Obviously a local favorite. Good signs proving that there is no accounting for taste. The interior decor matched the exterior in all its dingy glory, but an A rating from the local Health Department was prominently displayed. We waited behind 3 or 4 other customers to get to the counter. I ordered a sliced pork sandwich. My companions ordered chopped pork sandwiches with fries and onion rings, and a cup of "barbecue slaw." The sandwiches, fries and rings arrived in grease-stained wax paper -- a look back to another time while the slaw came in a foam cup. I eagerly unwrapped my sandwich to discover bland pork loin slices drenched in pink mayonnaise that soaked through a soggy bun. Other reviews here have called the pink sauce spicy. Maybe it's because of my southwest tastes, but the word "spicy" never entered my mind. Bland and mayonnaisey was my take. The slaw, which appeared to be more pink mayonnaise than cabbage, was soupy and also bland. We all looked at each other and knew that we had made a mistake. RO's is obviously a local institution with a loyal following. That's fine. If you aren't from there and haven't been raised on the pink stuff, my bet is you won't like it. To those who know and love it, well, enjoy! You can have my place in line.
