Pretty sure biscuitville saved my life.
I'm originally from Charlotte... about an hour South. I'm a HUGE Bojangles fan (originally started in the Charlotte area). It's probably better for my waistline that they haven't made it anywhere close to NM.

We fought through plenty of rain from the TN/NC border, and pulled into Honeymonk's around 1400... just as the lunch rush was calming.
As we climbed out of the car, the smell was intoxicating.
Here's a quick look at the menu.
CINCHOUSE grabbed a chopped barbecue plate with "rolls" (that's Lexington talk for "burger buns"). I couldn't help but pick up a large chopped tray.
The slaw is a "red slaw," and alternates between a hit of sweet and a hit of tangy vinegar. Big fan.
The chopped barbecue is fairly finely chopped, and is lightly "dressed" with some crushed red pepper and some sort of light sauce. The porkyness still comes through with a light hickory smoke.
Their Smokehouse Sauce is a bolder compliment to the flavor of the 'cue... not a cover-up.
I don't think that the decor has changed in the last 20-30 years, but it's neat and clean.
If you're in the area, I'd highly recommend a stop. It's been family-run since the beginning (I swear the whole extended family kicks in... with aunts, uncles, cousins, and the kids during the summer).
