About Our I-85 SC BBQ Restaurant Gu8ide
Barbeque in South Carolina — the birthplace of BBQ — is so unique and plentiful that those taking a road trip within our state need a guide to help them find the best location to sample from the SC BBQ Trail.
With that in mind, we have created SC BBQ Road Trip: A Restaurant Field Guide for each interstate that traverses our state. This edition covers Interstate 85 and its restaurants on the SC BBQ Trail.
Interstate 85 in South Carolina extends diagonally across the western corner of the state before exiting in Cherokee County.
This journey has Interstate 85 passing through only one of the four primary barbecue regions in the state. Regardless, those who find themselves on I-85 have ample opportunity to sample traditional South Carolina barbecue, and they don’t need to detour far from their travels to do so.
Interstate 85 extends 107 miles during its passage through the state. On this relatively short journey, I-85 spends its entire length in the region of SC most known for a light tomato sauce. (Note: if you’d like to learn to make authentic SCBBQ recipes, including the world’s best mustard sauce, check out the recipes we’ve published on this site or our SCBBQ Recipes: Going Whole Hog cookbook, with 300 pages of recipes from ages-old family traditions and today’s top SCBBQ pitmasters.)
Here is a look at a rough breakdown of South Carolina’s historical BBQ sauce regions:

Despite the map’s insistence, barbecue in our state is not necessarily as defined as the map dictates. This map generalizes and whitewashes regions based on historical precedence.
Today, you are likely to find any of the sauces in any corner of the state, particularly among the newer restaurants that are paying homage to the state’s grand history, but if you are looking for a particular sauce, now you know where to look.
Finding SC BBQ Restaurants near I-85
Anyway, today you find yourself traveling Interstate 85. You know traveling this stretch of road you certainly ought to be able to find some of this SCBBQ you’ve been hearing (and reading) about.
But where should you look and how far do you have to go to get real SC BBQ?
We strongly suggest checking out and using our SC BBQ Trail Locator Map or our SC BBQ Directory, but if you prefer, you might also consider downloading a copy of the SC Dept. of Tourism’s official SC BBQ Trail Map.
The map will find your location (with your permission) and show you the closest 25 SCBBQ restaurants within 100 miles of you. While our locator map is fantastic if we do say so ourselves, we know you probably don’t want to drive 40 miles off the interstate just to get a taste of SCBBQ. (As a side note, learn how to eat SC’s best BBQ for FREE!)
So, here we present to you all your options for enjoying real SCBBQ within 10 miles of a given exit along I-85. If you love SC BBQ as we do, we know you will appreciate this guide.
How We Selected These Restaurants
Just a quick reminder about our criteria for selecting restaurants:
- no national BBQ chain restaurants are included; all are SC-based restaurants and most are individual, family-owned shops
- all are “on” the interstate; that is, within 10 miles of an interstate exit
- inclusion in the list is not an endorsement and restaurants may be labeled “Must Visit” for reasons beyond the quality of their BBQ
- we will only include one restaurant on a given route for any major SCBBQ chain; note, however, while there are many Dukes restaurants in SC they are not franchises or members of a chain, so all will be included
- mileage provided is not exact but was calculated using Google maps so it should be very close
- See SCBBQ Road Trip: Start Your Engine for a fuller explanation of our selection criteria.
Interesting Interstate Info
Before we begin, some interstate highway fun facts you might not have known:
- no matter which direction you are heading, the interstate exit numbers are the same for a given junction
- one or two-digit, odd-numbered interstates run south-north, with lower numbered interstates starting in the west; I-85 is clearly a south-north running, East coast interstate, being such a high, odd number.
- mile markers for south-north running interstates begin at the southern end of each interstate
Thus, we will follow the exits along I-85 from where it begins in on the Georgia line until it exits near Charlotte.
Buckle your seatbelt and away we go…
