Fall Drive in UpcountrySC
Yesterday we took a drive in the mountains of South Carolina. It was absolutely gorgeous! Here's a sample of what we saw.
We took a trip to Long Creek this weekend to see the leaves and saw some beautiful colors. It’ll only get better here during the next two weeks, so make plans for a visit soon! #upcountrysc #discoversc
Early Fall on SC Hwy 11
Apples, pumpkins, jams and jellies...everything fall on SC Highway 11.
Want to try local Texas-style BBQ in the Upcountry? Look no further than Fork Grove BBQ!
….
Check out Fork Grove Barbecue out of Anderson, SC. Dylan Cooke was born and raised in SC but was inspired by the BBQ masters like Aaron Franklin of Franklin’s BBQ from Austin, TX to create the style of his own BBQ here in the Upcountry. He started out catering BBQ for family and friends back in 2020 but now has his own brick-and-mortar and has been to two Euphoria Greenville Feast by the Field events with their delicious meats and sides as well.
….
Seen in this reel is a platter of their pulled pork, brisket, a jalapeño cheddar sausage link, and two of their sides (baked beans and coleslaw), which were delicious! 😋
….
You can buy meat by the pound here, individual items, or create your own platter, like what we did here! They have yard games outside like axe throwing and corn hole and plenty of parking for everyone to hang out. Come support this new barbecue venture 🙌

The ribs were great, some unique bbq sauces too! 🤤 We tried a combo plate that included the ribs, juicy brisket, pulled pork, and two sides (we chose baked beans and green beans). The service and team here were some of the sweetest people and super attentive. Would recommend checking them out next time you’re in Easley, SC! 👏

We went rafting on the Chattooga with NOC.com. Designated the South's first National Wild & Scenic River in 1974, the Chattooga is one of the premier whitewater rafting rivers in the Eastern United States. Made famous in the movie "Deliverance," the Chattooga is one of the longest and largest free flowing mountain rivers in the Southeast that remains in a relatively undeveloped condition.
With Greenville, there are new spots popping up all the time. We have the scoop on two brand new restaurants side-by-side, the recent opening of Chef 21 Sushi Burger and Korean BBQ and Chef 21 Tea Republic. #hosted
….
If you know the Simpsonville area, this is from the same owners who opened Chef 21 Sushi Burger Simpsonville! We sampled everything from their infamous sushi 🍣 🍔 burgers, Bulgogi bibimbap, sushi classics like California rolls, and Korean sweet & spicy chicken. 😋
….
This included a sneak peek at the tea shop as well before we left. We tried some of their fruit teas and tried a milk Boba tea! It’s such a zen environment and they will also offer traditional tea ceremonies with up to 9 people per table. 🙌
….
Levy, the owner, said in opening both the tea shop and this new Korean BBQ restaurant that as an immigrant, she wanted to convey the experiences through food that she couldn’t find from her family’s recipes and travels. 💜 Let us know, what menu item or tea are you most excited to try first?
