The older style BBQ places would have had it in Atlanta. There’s a few places inside Atlanta that have it like Fox Brothers but it’s not the original. Danny’s looks legit and it will likely have the original kind. I would recommend it.

I'm not from NC so what do I know, but the best pulled-pork sandwich I've had in NC is at Ole Time: https://oletimebarbecue.com/ https://oletimebarbecue.com/ They also have Brunswick Stew. Clearly I just haven't looked for it.

  Big fan of Ole Time. And it's the exception to my rule that any place called 'Ole Time' probably isn't. The pulled-pork sandwich at Clyde Cooper's in downtown Raleigh is worth checking out. It's worth taking a trip out to the Skylight Inn for the experience and street cred, but, to me, the pulled-pork sandwich there isn't really any better than the above-mentioned places. Disclaimer: FL native, only been in NC about a decade, I've got no business judging pulled-pork sandwiches. I think I can say that the classic Eastern North Carolina pulled-pork sandwich dressed in vinegar, red pepper flakes, and cole slaw is easily one of the US's great sandwiches.

God damn, yes, but the U.S. has a lot of great sandwiches: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/04/14/dining/field-guide-to-the-sandwich.html https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/04/14/dining/field-... Some other favorites of mine are the Reuben, the Oyster Po Boy, and of course, being from Miami, a Cuban. Or just a humble grilled cheese, but made with caramelized onions: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1020107-french-onion-grilled-cheese https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1020107-french-onion-gri...
