Our Story
We bring the genuine taste of the Carolinas right to the heart of Utah. With over 35 years of restaurant experience, we believe that authentic barbecue is a true culinary art and a labor of love. Founded by South Carolina native Trae Eller, Charlotte-Rose’s Carolina BBQ is built on historic regional techniques and an absolute refusal to compromise on quality. We slow-smoke all of our meats and cook all our side dishes from scratch, ensuring every plate delivers the undeniable, deep-rooted flavors of the South.
The Carolina’ Cue Experience
Barbecue in the United States was started on the coast of modern day North Carolina by English settlers and Native Americans using vinegar and spices from the West Indes. Today there are many Carolina sauces and styles; we have eight different sauces from mild and sweet to tangy and spicy. Our sauces are carefully crafted to pair with our variety of meats.
Our Disclaimer
We make no apologies, our food is Southern. This means that no dietician, nutritionist, or novice health aficionado for that matter would recommend anything we serve.
Almost everything we serve is made with copious amounts of butter, salt, sugar, milk, fat… and tastes great, as a result.
Upon reading this warning/disclaimer you will be prepared to make an informed decision. We refuse to calculate, let alone publish the amount of cholesterol, calories or fat in the food we serve, as it would undoubtedly be incriminating. For those of you still confused, “Bless Your Heart.”
Events & Catering
We believe great barbecue is meant to be shared, which is why catering is our ultimate specialty and focus. Whether you are hosting an intimate party of 20 or feeding a massive crowd of 2,000, we provide prompt, friendly service with personalized oversight from our owner on every single order. We also happily accommodate specialty diets by offering both vegetarian and gluten-free options, ensuring everyone at your event leaves completely satisfied.
