As always,we will be providing a traditional Thanksgiving meal, including smoked turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, sweet potatoes, cranberry salad, pumpkin pie, various desserts, and all the rest of the trimmings absolutely free to anyone who shows up.

A huge Thank You to all of our customers, and especially those who participated in our fund raiser for Hurricane Helene relief during Halifax County Fair last week.

We netted $1,412 in drink sales, after paying for the drinks, cups, ice and state sales tax. In addition, we received donations of $57 from people who handed us money and said "put it in the fund ". Finally, we received a very generous contribution of $50 from a friend in the Lewisburg area who chose to remain anonymous. This adds up to $1,529.00. We rounded that up to $1,700, and just sent it to World Central Kitchen to help provide hot meals for victims and aide workers.

Thank you so much for making it possible for us to make this contribution, and also for your support and patronage.

Today (Saturday) is the last day of the Halifax County Fair, and our last day in Halifax County until spring.

We're loaded with almost famous SOBO baked, smashed and stuffed potatoes, plus our slow cooked barbequed pulled-pork, chicken and ribs.

Today, we're running a Fair Special with smoker cooked, all beef hot dogs! They are $4 each, or two for $7. Or you can get a meal deal with two dogs and a side of beans or coleslaw for only $10.

Open all day until the Fair closes at 10pm, or we run out.

A busy Wednesday evening at the Pig Shack. Thank you!

We appreciate our customers!!

We've been thinking a lot about our friends and kinfolk in Western North Carolina, and all of the victims of Hurricane Helene. Sadly, we're getting a little old to be tramping over the hills and hollers looking for missing folks, but we do want to help as much as we can.

So, we will be donating 100% of the proceeds from drink sales during the Halifax County Fair to World Central Kitchen, to help provide hot meals to victims and volunteers. Nothing lifts your spirits during hard times like a hot meal.

This includes tea, lemonade and soda pop.

Fair opens 4-10 on Tuesday through Friday and noon to 10 on Saturday. Bring the family for some wholesome fun!

We're proud to have been invited to the 114th edition of the Halifax County Fair. It's a thrill to be a small part of this long-running tradition.

We are arguing about whether this is our 19th or 20th year at the Fair. You may have to help us settle the argument.

Anyhoo, we'll be in our usual spot, across from the Exhibit Hall, every day of the Fair. We'll have plenty of SOBO baked, smashed and stuffed potatoes, as well as lots of BBQ pulled pork, chicken, ribs and all the fixings. Did we mention our five homemade barbeque sauces for you to choose from?

The Fair is open from 4:00pm to 10:00, Tuesday through Friday, and noon to 10:00pm on Saturday.

Bring the family for a night of good, clean fun.

We now accept cash, check, Venmo, Cash app, and all major credit cards. Looking forward to seeing you there!

PLEASE SHARE: With the family’s permission, we are asking all that are able to join us tomorrow Sunday, July 28th at the The Sportsman Tavern at 10 am as we begin a methodical search for Chandler and her vehicle. We would like to ask that if you can bring a friend, please do. If you have any maps of the area or a drone, please bring those as well.

We live in an awesome community and together we can find Chandler Reed.
