Slingin’ Hash: The Rodney Scott BBQ Edition

Ask any SCBBQ fan “Where can I find the best barbecue in South Carolina?” and the short answer would be Hemingway.

Hemingway is home to Scott’s Bar-B-Que, where a young Rodney Scott once took over the pits from his father Rosie and propelled Hemingway and Scott’s Bar-B-Que new heights.

Well, the spotlight on Hemingway may now fade.

Scott has opened his new restaurant, Rodney Scott’s BBQ, in Charleston, where BBQ has seen a recent boon with the addition of places like Lewis BBQ, Smoke, and Poogan’s Smokehouse to an already strong lineup.

But don’t feel too bad for Scott’s original location. It is still in business and still cooking SC’s best BBQ. Rumor has it that Rosie is back in the kitchen along with Rodney’s son, so we should be able to enjoy another generation of great BBQ at Scott’s.

SO MUCH INFORMATION

Seeing the various recipes from different regions of SC is what I liked most about the cookbook. Looking forward to trying them out. It’s a small investment to pay to learn about various BBQ within our state, or a great way to try SC BBQ without having to actually go there. So much information on… Read more “SO MUCH INFORMATION”
