Sen Berger calls for Bipartisan Defense of NC Barbecue

Raleigh, N.C. – N.C. Senate Leader Phil Berger (R-Rockingham) is defending the honor and reputation of North Carolina barbecue after the food website Munchies published a dubious claim that so-called ‘Brooklyn barbecue’ is “taking over the world.”

“Everyone makes mistakes, and it’s time for the writers at Munchies to admit theirs: ‘Brooklyn barbecue’ – whatever that is – won’t be taking over North Carolina anytime soon,” said Berger. “This is a fact on which we can all agree, and I call on Gov. Cooper and Speaker Moore to join me in mounting a bipartisan defense of our state’s finest food.”
