Rodney Scott's Whole Hog BBQ
How to book: CURRENTLY CLOSED — no booking. When it was operating: walk-in, casual, counter order (no reservations), historically open daily ~11am–9pm with a drive-through and outdoor seating; go early before the whole-hog sells out. Reconfirm hours and reopening before any reader-facing use.
Best meal: When open: lunch or early dinner of the pit-smoked whole-hog pork (the signature), with ribs/wings and Southern sides — casual, counter-service, family-easy. NOT a reservation occasion. Currently unavailable (closed).
Who it’s NOT for: anyone needing a confirmed dinner right now — the Charleston flagship is CLOSED as of May 2026 (see status); anniversary-couple wanting a quiet occasion room; sit-down-service expectations (it's counter-order casual)
