It’s a bummer to sit down at a restaurant and give the waitstaff your order only to find out that what you wanted has sold out for the day, especially if it’s one of your favorites. If it happens often, you figure you better get there earlier in the day going forward. This is particularly true if we’re talking about the bread pudding at Willie Jewell’s Old School Bar-B-Q in North Charleston. It must be one of the best desserts in South Carolina because it sells out every day!

Located on University Boulevard in North Charleston, Willie Jewell's Old-School Bar-B-Q is a sister concept restaurant to the legendary Bono's Pitt Bar-B-Q restaurant in Florida.

The concept was inspired by a woman who was taken in at 16 years old by the family running the restaurant. She began working there and was found to be an amazing cook and an incredible person as well.

In addition to having one of the most popular South Carolina desserts, inside you'll find a comfortable and casual, welcoming atmosphere with great customer service.

It's rustic and you'll notice a little bit of attitude in the fun decor. Perhaps "Eat your dessert first" should be added here?!

Beef brisket is a popular dish, carved just right to ensure maximum tenderness. The meats at Willie Jewell's are all dry-rubbed and smoked.
