Stallings Rockstore Bar-B-Q — Restaurant in Stallings

Rockstore is a tiny BBQ house in Stallings by the Matthews border. It’s pretty quaint and the smoke smell can be picked up from blocks away.

The interior is tight with booths and a counter and there are a few outside tables along the front and side. The cue is solid for being pumped out of such a small space. The Pulled Pork is easily the most popular plate to get. It’s smoky, juicy and full of flavor. That said, don’t sleep on the Rib plate. While they lack the smoke of the pulled pork, they are delicious and fall off the bone.

There are many of the standard sides to choose from. Our favorites are the BBQ baked beans, potato salad, red or white slaw and green bean casserole. They offer myriad sauce options so pick your favorite and go with it.

Service is cool. Food comes out fast and it’s reasonably priced given the state of inflation. Parking is pretty easy unless your there at peak lunch time. It gets crowded at lunch and you may have to park along the side street. Either way, Rockstore is worth a stop if you’re...

I ordered 4lbs of BBQ for a party. Cost me $58.00 bucks. The owner gives me 10 little cups of BBQ sauce. I ask for another 5, and he wants to charge me extra for sauce. He tells me I'm better off buying a large bottle of sauce for $5.00. He tells me that 1 pound of BBQ is 3-4 servings. So I should be getting 12-16 cups of sauce? He tells me 1 little cup of sauce is 2 servings. That is totally subjective. Some people like a lot of sauce, and some people do not. I end up paying another $2.50 for 5 more little cups of sauce. If you like dry BBQ with little sauce and getting nickel and dimed for everything, go to this store. I will never do business with them again, or any other Rockstore...

I have been a customer for years and have consistently been satisfied with the food and service. However, I have noticed that a young lady, who is heavier set, often wears outfits that I find concerning. This is not my first time seeing this, I have previously observed her dressed in a similar manner. She often wears red shorts that are HIGHLY inappropriate for a work environment and today they were particularly revealing (to the point I could see the underwear she had on underneath). I believe it would be best to implement a dress code or address this matter with the young lady. It is unprofessional, unsanitary, and disrespectful to not just the customers but the young men...
