Bernie’s – Columbia, SC
As I planned a trip to Myrtle Beach, I realized that Columbia was about midway – and I had recently heard about Bernie’s Fried Chicken. I had thought about stopping on the way up, but that was on Sunday – the one day of the week they are closed. We were heading home on […]
Scott’s Pit Cooked Bar-B-Q – Hemingway, SC
For the last eight years, I’ve been wanting to eat barbecue at Scott’s Variety. But it is slap dab in the middle of nowhere – 80 miles north of Charleston and 100 miles east of Columbia. Not to mention more than 300 miles from home… I just couldn’t find an excuse to get there. The […]

The Atlanta stop was on Monday, at Gunshow, where […]
