Just moved to Charlotte and had my second try at NC BBQ. Turns out Midwood smokehouse is in my backyard, which in turn happens to be extremely dangerous for a BBQ nut like myself. The food was incredible. The chili was smoky and not overpoweringly spicy. The wings (both the menu ones and a garlic buffalo special) were incredible. 2 very different flavors and textures, but 2 very successful, meaty sets of wings. Finally, the pulled pork was delicious. I'm from up north so the whole vinegar style sauce is new to me. This place made me a real fan of it!
On top of the food, the vibe and decor is fantastic. Everyone was extremely friendly and thanked us for stopping in. They made you feel like a part of the neighborhood and that we were doing them a favor...when in fact they did me and my stomach a huge favor! Can't wait to go back.
