New barbecue spot coming to Manchester

There can never be too many barbecue restaurants. This is the one thing I find to be true in life.

Your favorite barbecue joint is a deeply personal issue. The most important factor is what style of barbecue do like. I favor Texas style since brisket is one of my go-to orders. Naturally, since we live in the south you’ll find a ton of folks who prefer the vinegar based Carolina style.

If you like Carolina style I’ve got good news for you. A new spot is opening up (hopefully before Thanksgiving) on Hull Street.

Richmond BizSense.com has the details.

The owner of an East End barbecue joint is opening a new restaurant, Pig And Brew, along the Southside neighborhood’s commercial corridor at 1313 Hull St.

The new venture will be owned by Lamont Hawkins, the owner and pitmaster of  Inner City Blues Carolina BBQ at 3015 Nine Mile Road, along with his godson Lamarr Johnson.

“We thought it was the right time and opportunity,” said Johnson. “When you look at this area, there seems to be a lot of people and not enough dining options … so we thought it was time to move forward with our new restaurant here.”
