It all started when I was a young child helping my grandpa cook BBQ. My grandpa, "Quillie" Gray of Snow Hill, N.C., was pretty well known for his barbecue. Growing up with grandpa, I learned that the main ingredients for good barbecue are time and patience. The first Ole Time Barbecue opened 1993 and we have worked hard to keep Grandpa's Ole Time traditions in our food and service.We have recently been rated one of the Top Ten Barbecue Restaurants in the state of North Carolina and have been nominated as one of Citysearch's "Best of" nominees. Our menu gives you something for every meal of the day. We serve breakfast until 10 am, including country breakfast platters, omelets and French toast. The rest of the day we serve some of the best ribs, chicken and pork with all the fixin's to make any North Carolinian smack their lips.

Raleigh, NC is a long way from Reading, PA, yet Amedeo "Dick" DeAngelis made the trek to play football for the mighty NC State Wolfpack in 1954. Playing on a scholarship, he was a long way from home and he greatly missed "home cooking". The idea of opening a small Italian restaurant seemed the most effective way to alleviate the longing. He utilized homemade recipes from his mother and grandmother and in 1963, a 12-seat restaurant opened on Western Boulevard in Raleigh. Since that time Dick, along with his mother, wife Betty, children, and grandchildren and many loyal employees have expanded "Amedeo's" into a premier eating establishment with a seating capacity now of over 200!
