Per Destination BBQ, "McCabe’s Bar-B-Que in Manning simply cooks some of the best barbecue you will ever taste. It stands out as true, old-school South Carolina BBQ that you cannot find just anywhere these days. If you are looking for an authentic SC BBQ experience, McCabe’s is the place to stop."

Per Robert Moss from Southern Living, “There are plenty of barbecue buffets in the Midlands and Pee Dee region of South Carolina, but none can match the consistent high-quality of McCabe’s. Everything on the small steamtable – the pulled pork, steeped in peppery vinegar sauce, the fried chicken, the sweet potatoes, greens, hush puppies, and coleslaw – is top-notch.”
