When Pitmaster Rodney Scott was in middle school, he started cooking whole hogs at his family's restaurant in rural South Carolina. By the time he was in his mid-twenties he already had more experience in the bbq pits than most men twice his age. Rodney, along with his partners at Rodney Scott's BBQ opened the original Charleston, SC location in 2017 and the very next year Rodney Scott was awarded the James Beard Award for Best Chef Southeast. There is now a second location of Rodney Scott's BBQ in Birmingham, AL with plans for two more there and an Atlanta, GA location slated to open in 2021. Pit-Cooked meats make the difference that is evident from the first bite. Each location has working bbq pits and pitmasters trained in the techniques of live-coal cooking that Rodney grew up mastering. Our kitchens produce classic side dishes-collard greens, baked beans, mac and cheese, coleslaw, potato salad--and banana pudding is layerd, and hand pies baked every day. Our restaurants evoke the spirit of Rodney's love of music and people gathering together over a table of great food. A disco ball spins and funk and soul music fills the air. Rodney Scott's Whole Hog BBQ is a place for everyone where “Every Day is a Great Day”
