. "The BBQ in this little strip mall joint decidedly does NOT rock. I've never been to the original Rock Store but I've heard good things. I had some time to kill between photography jobs in Mint Hill, it was lunch time, and I was in the parking lot, so I decided to grab some good old NC style BBQ pork.\n\nI should have realized that any place with all that traffic outside and a jam packed parking lot at high noon that only had three customers inside may have problems.\n\nI had the pulled pork sandwich and potato wedges. The pork was dry and without sauce or flavor, slapped on a cold bun. I was offered several sauces and chose the spicy, which was OK but too sweet and not very spicy. I was horrified to see that when I ordered fries the lady behind the counter pulled open a warming oven and pulled out a pan filled with a giant pile of precooked wedges being kept warm. There were enough wedges in that pan to feed everybody in the parking lot. She grabbed a handful off of the top of the huge pile and put them in a cardboard boat. You can about imagine how they were. Flavor, not bad but texture, soggy, limp and old.\n\nAnother Charlotte area BBQ joint bites the dust. Too bad."^^ . . "2"^^ . "1"^^ . "2"^^ . "2014-03-23T00:00:00"^^ . "6"^^ . .
