Tucked away in a small Southern town, The Spotted Pig BBQ began as a humble roadside shack founded by James “Jimmy” Harper in 1984. What started as a weekend hobby—slow-smoking pork shoulders over oak and hickory—quickly turned into a local sensation. Word spread fast, and before long, the single smoker grew into a bustling restaurant, later expanding to multiple locations across the state.
Part of its charm lies in the evolution of the menu. The classics—pulled pork sandwiches, ribs, and house-made sauces—remain fan favorites, but regulars know there’s more than meets the eye. A “secret menu” developed over time, whispered about among loyal guests, featuring off-menu creations like loaded rib tips and smoky brisket burnt ends.
Still, no matter how the offerings have grown, the restaurant’s original slow-smoked pork plate continues to be the heart of The Spotted Pig BBQ—proof that the first love is always the sweetest.
