Our previous Mystery Photo: Our Oct. 28 mystery, “Great flower boxes” showed the exterior of Rodney Scott’s barbecue joint on upper King Street in Charleston.  Just looking at the building makes one’s mouth water for Scott’s tasty pork sandwiches.

FOCUS, E. Brack: The mouth waters at Rodney Scott’s BBQ

By Elliott Brack  |  The first thing that hits you when stepping into Rodney Scott’s Barbecue at 1011 King Street here is how very clean the place is.   It pristinely sparkles and shines with neatness, everything in place, while the  floor appears clean enough to eat on. It’s a far cry from most barbecue joints, often in rundown shacks with sawdust on the floor. Even his outdoor seating area, if you don’t mind the Charleston humidity, is clean and neat, with wood for the cooking in half-cord stacks of oak, pecan and hickory.

His headliner, the barbecue, itself is beautifully pulled, just as neat and clean itself, with no untidy pieces of scrap meat  or fat, included. Sprinkle of Rodney’s various sauces, and start to salivate in anticipation!

Everything at Rodney Scott’s is simple and direct, from the menu to the counter. His menu also includes several vegetables including collards, and a mac and cheese. People rave about his cornbread. And each  staff greets you easily with a smile and without an attitude.
