About this business
The Pit offers some of the best barbecue in Raleigh. Set in a restored early 20th Century meatpacking warehouse, the restaurant carries on the North Carolina barbecue tradition by serving full-hog, pit-cooked pork, and other barbecue essentials. But The Pit is more than a generic barbecue restaurant: it combines the generous portions of classic meat-loving joints with some surprises. The pork is free-range, and guests can enjoy barbecued tofu, wines, cocktails, and a comprehensive list of bourbons.

The fried okra was really good as were the biscuits and little hush puppies they brought out. The chopped BBQ was decent. Had to put a lot of sauce on it. I did li... read more
Amazing!!!! We went for my daughter’s birthday and now going back for mine. The best BBQ I’ve tried!
I've been eating NC barbecue all my life and your chopped pork barbecue is this best I ever had! (Please don't tell my friends at Wilbur's, in Goldsboro, that I said that.)
Our first time here and didn’t know what to expect. Brought a group of college kids to celebrate my son’s 19th birthday.
