Sometimes you come across a place that is so amazing you don’t want to share it. This is one of those places! As a family of foodies we will travel hundreds of miles, This is one of those places! I would 100% say that this restaurant is superior to every barbecue & fried chicken restaurant on the East Coast (Not just North Carolina). It is hard for me to believe they were not the BBQ featured on diners, drive-ins and dives. They have the eat on a flip flop sauces.

I came to Rick’s with an appetite after sailing for a week or so. I left satisfied! The ribs were some of the best I have had. Juicy, with a nice bark of seasoned perfection. The collards were very well seasoned and didn’t even need vinegar. I added some fried okra, which was tender and crispy. All the food was served hot, as it should be! The service was great, and Rick himself came by my table to say hi and check on me. There were some good beers available, though I decided on sweet tea today. Rick’s has given me yet another reason why I will be stopping in Oriental whenever possible.

Went to Rick’s NC BBQ based upon the good reviews while vacationing in the area. All the fantastic reviews are spot on. The food was excellent! We had pulled pork, fried chicken, slaw, beans, mac and cheese, potato salad and corn bread. All of it was exceptional. Also, the people working there were very friendly and welcoming. The place itself is nothing fancy, but with food that good, who cares!

Very friendly owners/wait staff. Their BBQ has a great smoked taste and the fried chicken is really good. The potato wedges are real potatoes and I think they are fantastic. Lots of BBQ on the plates and I cant eat it all. The slaw comes on the side for the sandwiches and is delicious. Try their ribs also.

Rick catered my wedding celebration over Labor Day weekend. I’m so glad we went with him. He worked very closely with us to put our menu together. We had out of town family and friends coming, and I wanted them to get a southern BBQ feast. We had ribs, pulled pork, fried chicken, and all the fixings: mac & cheese, potato salad, baked beans plus good old sweet tea. Our guests raved about the taste and the quality of the food. Hubby and I gained a new set of friends. Highly, highly recommended!

We got the 10oz BBQ platter with a fried chicken piece, collard greens, and mac-n-cheese, as well as some cornbread. All was delicious. Will definitely return next time we’re in town!

Rick’s BBQ is one of the BEST pulled pork experiences I’ve ever had and I’ve been enjoying NC pulled pork for many many years! The collards were fantastic and spot on! Baked beans? Amazing! Ribs? Superb! And very meaty! To round it out? Super duper fried chicken and peach cobbler that was delicious! We will be back and I hope that one day Rick’s could perhaps open a satellite shop near the capital of the state! Thanks again!

We tried Rick’s for the first time a few months ago and loved it. Fast forward to my 10year old’s birthday party this past weekend and he specifically requested Rick’s BBQ and Fried Chicken. It DID NOT DISAPPOINT! It was so good. We are definitely fans, and I think created some new fans with our guests. Thank you for such a great product and service!
