Barbecue in NC divides between Eastern and Western style. Although Bib's Downtown does barbecue, it's neither of the two traditional ones. It's a potpourri of pulled pork, brisket, chicken, and other meats all flavored with owner Mark Little's own sauce--Bestern BBQ Sauce. Little opened his place in 2008 in the shell of an old Firestone auto shop of West 5th Street in Winston-Salem.

Tasha and William Kornegay of Apex never thought making cotton candy was the career path they were on. She works in mental health, and he is in marking; they met fifteen years ago while working in a school system. In 2013, Tasha was trying to raise funds for HIV research. She rented a cotton candy machine and took it to the Peak City Pig Fest. It was a hit. The Kornegays are vegan and their product is certified organic, kosher, gluten-free, with no artificial food coloring.

Abstract:
Michael Markham has a unique approach to dispensing barbecue in the Research Triangle Area. He tows a red barn, 18'x6,' behind his pickup truck. Inside are a smoker and all the fixings for a barbecue plate with collards and baked beans or a barbecue sandwich. Raleigh tends to discourage food trucks; there are a lot of hoops to jump through. It took Mike months to get the barn up to code, but he did it and now he has been selling his product for almost three years. Mike can be found parked outside office buildings, festivals, and places where there are other food trucks.
