The Unassuming Restaurant In South Carolina That Serves The Best Pit-Cooked BBQ You’ll Ever Taste
Native South Carolinians will tell you there’s no denying that South Carolina’s BBQ is the best in the country. You’ll also find extreme loyalty to various pit masters in the Palmetto State. But we’re here to tell you, if you only try one pit-cooked BBQ in South Carolina, then make it THIS one.
Scott's Variety in Hemingway is the one of the most unassuming restaurants you'll ever encounter. The exterior is worn, yet welcoming, and couldn't possibly be any less pretentious than it already is - or isn't.
For sure, among other things, Scott's proves you don't have to be pretty to be popular. Wedged into a true variety store seemingly in the middle of nowhere (our apologies to Hemingway) Scott's BBQ has been billed as the best in the country.
Pit master Rodney Scott has the gentle art of pit-cooked BBQ down to a science. And the secret isn't JUST in the sauce. Just look at Scott's "pit" in the photo below and you'll agree.
Is it worth the drive from one side of the state to the other? ABSOLUTELY! Famous celebs have been spotted casually tending to their BBQ "fix" at Scott's. And residents and visitors to the Palmetto State often admit to driving hours to get at this tender pulled pork.
The best part? Everything!
Whether you sit yourself down immediately to scarf down these eats, or have the patience to pony up and take a whole slew of it home, you're sure to want more! In fact, if you think you might want to go "whole hog" and take a whole hog home for whatever reason...you can. Seriously. Buy the whole pig.
