OUR HISTORY

Where BBQ Meets Family Tradition

White Swan BBQ & Fried Chicken features award winning, genuine Eastern North Carolina pork barbecue. Made from a 50 year old secret family recipe, White Swan BBQ & Fried Chicken has been voted one of the top 25 Bar-B-Qs in the Southeast. Eastern North Carolina Bar-B-Q is unlike any other in the world. It's a taste that you must experience.

Our pork is slowly cooked in a covered cooker which holds in the smoked flavor. The meat is then chopped and ready to eat. Great on sandwiches in a hamburger bun with cold slaw or by itself, there is no other Bar-B-Q like it.

I’m not sure if your experience will be like mine but I most say I had a pleasant experience. the lady’s greet you with a smile and are willing to answer all questions about the menu. I had fried dark meat chicken with fries, potato salad, and some kind of fried dumplings. The Chicken was well seasoned, not too salty just perfect!! potato salad was really good. I can say I was satisfied with my purchase. I only wish that for a barbecue joint it should have barbecue chicken leg quarters or ribs lol
