My friend and I had decided to go to the Q shack for lunch, and had split a full rack of ribs. I took one bite out of my half rack and instantly felt sick to my stomach... The ribs tasted like they were under cooked, so I tried eating a…

I am surprised to hear people praise the pork barbeque -- the best in Triangle? Yikes! Go anywhere outside the Triangle -- Hursey's in Burlington/Graham for example -- and you can find much better pork BBQ than this. On the other hand,…

I love the food here! I use to live pretty close to the Q-Shack and have tried *everything* on the menu except the hamburger. (Why would I want to get a hamburger will all the different BBQ on that menu!?!) Now that I've moved to a…

I got brisket, black eyed peas, and hushpuppies and I do not have a since complaint. The service was quick, everything was hot, and they had a wide variety on the menu. I liked how the meat was local, too. Fast food type seating, made…

Okay, I haven't been to every BBQ place the triangle has to offer. But I have been to over half a dozen of the most touted places, including Allen & Sons and Bullock's, and the Q shack tops them all. While the ribs and the brisket are…

Hey guys,\r \r Coming from an African-American you can believe this one. This spot is REALLY good! I can't stand NC barbeque and I've had Coopers(which is Avg at Best) and Old Tyme(Better than Coopers). The Q-Shack is really good and I…

I'm from Texas (Austin to be specific) and this place definitely satisfies. I specifically went looking for Texas style BBQ & this place fit the bill. The decor & the fact that they have Shiner on tap really made me feel at home. The…

I've dined at both the Durham (Original Q Shack) and the Raleigh (North Hills) Q Shacks and have never been dissapointed. I relocated here from Los Angeles and discovered that I have a new passion for NC barbecue and Qshack is one of my…

...as there is no other! This message is in response to ZMANSTER's ONE STAR RATING of the Q-Shack in Durham. You are mistaken in giving the ORIGINAL Q-SHACK the poor review. I am sure that you have not eaten at the ORIGINAL Q-SHACK in…

I've traveled all over the USA, lived in Dallas, St. Louis, Kansas City, Denver, Los Angeles and now relocated to Raleigh. I absolutely love good BBQ of all varieties. I went to the Q Shack located in the North Hills of Raleigh on two…

On my trip to Carolina the one thing I really wanted to try was Carolina BBQ. I was told that it is really vinegary. So I gave it a try at the Q shack. I didn't like it. I mean it tasted good, but the vinegar was not for me. At any…

Outstanding mix of Texan and Carolina BBQ. The sliced brisket is amazing...and the hushpuppies alone are worth the trip.

GET READY NC CHIILDREN, TEXAS HAS COME TO NORTH CAROLINA. IF YOU HAVE NOT HAD THE \r OPPORTUNITY TO TRY TEXAS STYLE BBQ, NOWS YOUR CHANCE. I LOVE THE COLE SLAW!\r THE PULLED CHICKEN IS ANOTHER FAVORITE. IT'S NICE TO HAVE A CHOICE IN THE…

good bbq, second best of the 4 I've tried in NC (Allen & Sons, Q Shack, one in Chapel Hill, and Bullocks). Highly recommended!

I have lived here for 9 years, coming up from Florida. I was looking forward to Bar B Que places. The Q Shack is NOT one of them! I can't believe the people actually go there. The ribs were under cooked, almost mushy. I also tried…
