f you’re not feeling adventurous and just looking for something familiar and consistent, sometimes you just need a chain restaurant. Smoke Pit has four locations right here in North Carolina, and we won't be surprised to see them keep growing. While closed on Mondays, they have lunch and dinner hours every other day of the week and are truly right on I-85 at the Cox Rd Exit. Could the barbecue from a chain restaurant rival the local favorites? We’ll never tell.
