Parker's is something of a Wilson, in fact an Eastern North Carolina Tradition. They've been barbecuing since 1946.

Got it down pat. Walk in the door there's a platoon of servers, dressed in white. You're shown to your table, handed a menu, and in my case at least, my order was before me a minute after I placed it.

Good barbecue, good stew, great fried chicken. Like Bill's, also in Wilson, the corn sticks, a Wilson thing evidently, aren't worth the effort - dry and no flavor.
