Good old Southern BBQ was on tap for lunch today!
And another restaurant on our restaurant list bites the dust!
Chad has wanted to take me to Mac’s for a while and today just happened to be that day!
It gets super crowded in the evening so we figured lunch would be a better time to go and get our desired outdoor eating area.
And we were right!
Iced waters with lemon + lime to quench our thirst.
And pulled pork BBQ (named “The Lil’ Pig”) sandwiches for our meals:
Each sandwich comes with your choice of a side. I went with a spinach salad (with bacon and feta cheese!) while Chad went with something a little lighter:
Ha.
Looked good but not sure I could manage mac ‘n cheese as a side! In my head it’s more like a meal in and of itself.
We both stuck with the Carolina BBQ Sauce:
Delicious!
But I was super bummed to find there was HFCS in it!
I used just a little and got the flavor without too much of the unnecessary additives. Worked out pretty well and I think both of us were happy with our meals.
This is definitely not a place to go every day – but considering it’s voted one of the Top 10 places to eat in Charlotte, I figured we had to at least try it!
I came home to a package filled with goodies:
Can’t wait to dig into some of these! Thanks Annie Chun’s!

I like you mentality on the HFCS topic. I used to refuse to eat anything with it in but then I realized a little now and then will not likely kill me… I still won’t bring it IN my house but if I am out and it’s in something I eat, oh well, live goes on!
I am seriously craving bbq today though so it’s funny you have this for lunch!
wow, typos much? Note to self: proofread better…
HA! I didn’t even notice them if that makes you feel any better! 🙂
Totally – I’m the exact same way with HFCS! And haha – oh man! I wish I could’ve shared some with you!
You are a stronger woman than me. I totally would have gone for the mac & cheese side!
Hahaha – I can’t lie, I was kinda drooling over it when it came out!
I have been craving mac and cheese and seeing that may have made that craving worse! 😉
Haha – oh no!! I think there’s only one cure then, you need to get yourself some 🙂
I’ve never had true Carolina BBQ- I guess I need to add that to my list!
You definitely do – it’s delicious!
