Smokin’ Pig of Williamston has reopened as the Smokin’ Pig Express. Same owners just a more streamlined concept with self-service dining and togo options including drive thru, call-in and online orders, and carry out!
The Smokin’ Pig is a family-owned BBQ restaurant. Our main menu items include chopped pork, brisket, chicken, and ribs.
“Best BBQ in Anderson,” writes Katherine B on Yelp. “Fun atmosphere and friendly staff. I love the brisket and pulled pork. Would recommend the sweet potato side dishes.”
The SC BBQ Association has named this place one of the Top 100 BBQ houses in the state.
