Wilson's Real Pit Barbeque

"An incongruous plate if ever there was one: Texas beef brisket and North Carolina pulled pork, topped with a square of Wilson's good cornbread. The pork is juicy and delicious as-is, although piquant vinegar sauce is offered on the side. The brisket is a bit dry until dolloped with Wilson's fine smoky chipotle sauce."

"Wilson's macaroni and cheese is a nice mix of chewy edge and tender inside. Creamy and bland, it makes a fine companion for smoky meat and spicy sauce."
Michael Stern



"Greener than green, these collards have a walloping vegetable flavor. They are great paired with mac 'n' cheese alongside smoked meat. "
Michael Stern



"Wilson's serves down-South food in the upscale community of Fairfield. Note: it is open only Thursday through Sunday, starting at 11:30am."

"There was absolutely no place to sit, and barely room to maneuver to the cash register to place an order, when I stopped in Saturday night about 7pm. So I got my meal to go and dined off the dashboard."
Michael Stern



"This view through the window of Wilson's on a crowded Saturday night shows the proprietor at the cash register, where he holds court and joshes with everyone he meets."
