Carolina Style BBQ Pop-Up by Ore Nell's Kittery
Get ready for a mouthwatering North Carolina-style BBQ experience! While the kitchen at Ore Nell’s undergoes renovations, they’re bringing the bold flavors of the South to The 801 for a limited-time pop-up event.
Dates: January 30th – February 2nd
Time: 5:00pm – 9:00pm
No reservations. Walk-ins only!
What’s the Difference Between Carolina and Central Texas BBQ?
Carolina barbecue—specifically Lexington (or Piedmont) style, which we’re showcasing—is all about pork, with a focus on pork shoulder and ribs. It’s paired with a thin, vinegar-based sauce, lightly mixed into the meat to balance the richness and cut through the fattiness. In contrast, Central Texas barbecue highlights beef, like brisket, and uses simple rubs, focusing on the meat’s natural flavors.
Mark your calendars, and bring your appetite. It’s BBQ, but make it Carolina style!
