I live in California now an never get to go to Parker's in Wilson, NC anymore. I can tell you that there is NOTHING that I have ever found that can compare to the food there. The ambiance is simple and the serving staff is young and dedicated and friendly. There used to be several Parker's around not only in Wilson but in Rocky Mount as well. I would love to get back to Wilson and eat at Parker's. When I was there last you only had 2 choices. Large combination or Small combination. Chicken breast for large and chicken thigh for small. All you could eat of cornbread sticks, hush puppies, sole slaw, Brunswick Stew and the best bar-b-que imaginable. Those older folks you see when you eat there are the folks who have been eating there since they were kids. If I had a place like that in Anaheim, it would be packed. You MUST experience the simplicity and greatness of Parker's.
Pros: Best Carolina Pit Cooked Bar-b-que I can remember
Cons: I live too far away now to get there.
