Kitty speaks with Sonny Gerhart of St. Roch Fine Oysters and Bar about his whole hog barbecue pop-up at St. Roch every Saturday in October.

For the next two Saturdays, Gerhart and Wyatt Dixon, Picnic’s pitmaster, will be bringing the delicious duo of oysters and barbeque to the local area. “‘We thought we’d make this incredible combination available to our guests this fall,’ says Gerhart, whose oysters are favored by many in Raleigh and throughout the Triangle. His Louisiana-inspired restaurant features raw, roasted, and fried oysters from North Carolina, as well as some rotating varieties from throughout the East Coast.”

This whole hog barbeque pop-up will be held from noon to 4 pm, and all profits from the barbeque plates will support downtown’s pay-what-you-can cafe A Place at the Table. 

“To get your hands on Dickson’s barbecue and Gerhart’s oysters during the Saturday pop-up series, make a reservation through Resy, call 919-322-0359 or visit their website for curbside pickup, or walk-in from noon to 4 p.m.—or until the pig runs out, which we’re thinking may not take too long.”
