No. Don't like their cornbread. It's too thick and tasteless. When we do it at home it's easily half as thick, and we use salt so it is not tasteless. At the Skylight I usually just peal off and eat the top and bottom layers. Flat cornbread is definitely a regional thing that we don't expect everyone to get.

PS...I've never had globs of yellow stuff in my bbq at Pete Jone's. I suppose I need a few hundred MORE visits to make a complete determination. LOL

I think Skylight Inn is pretty damn good, some of the best 'que I've ever tasted (granted, I'm from Virginia, but still). I have yet to try B's. I'll be heading down for a Pirates baseball game soon, so I'll have to see what the hype is about.

I have never seen any orange globs in their meat. I have seen skin with a slight orange tint to it because it has been cooked. Thats it.

I love this area...3 pages of comments on BBQ but not a single comment on my request for places to play sports...too funny. ( I mean this in a nice way.)

Only the edges.

And their slaw is second to none.

You could open a BBQ spot in the basement of a crack house and the line of people wanting in will meander around the pipes and needles.

Was in Greenville this morning Prom Dress Shopping. As a consolation, wife and daughter agreed to go to B's, after I told of all all the positive comments here.

What a dump. I am sure a lot of you guys just say B's cause it is cool to go "slumming" sometime. Or rather say that you did.

In addition to the building in total disrepair, the drunk guy, hanging on the corner stop sign kind of slobbering and singing at the same time, combined to make my wife feel I had again lost my mind.

I could not get her and my daughter out of the entire area fast enough. First they shrieked in terror and then, once a safe distance, in laughter, at me. Great!!!

It may make you feel "cool" to go to B's but I would never, ever recommend that hole to anyone. What a disappointment.
