Happy National Nachos Day y'all! As if we need an excuse, today is a great day to indulge in your favorite Tex-Mex dish.  But where to go to really optimize the holiday?  Here's where you can find the best nachos in North Carolina and South Carolina.

What exactly defines a nacho? According to the Google machine, as my mom used to call it, nacho is a Mexican dish consisting of tortilla chips, smothered with cheese, meats, vegetables, salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.  If you want to be super basic nachos could merely be covered with cheese and you could call it a day.  But who wants to stop there?

Just doing research for you guys on this, it made me hungry. I am a carb, meat, and cheese girl all day long.  Pile it on and pile it on thick.  Here are a few suggestions from the experts on where you can find the best nachos in North Carolina and South Carolina.

According to mashed.com you can find the best nachos at Raleigh Times Bar in Raleigh, North Carolina. They site the velvety molten cheese and fresh ingredients and the variety. You can get barbecue nachos or ones topped with chicken or pork.

In South Carolina, check out Queology in Charleston. According to mashed.com they use "incredibly" fresh ingredients and build a towering glory and meats and cheeses. They are dripping with coleslaw and barbecue sauce.  That's different! While primarily it's known for barbecue apparently their nachos are the bomb.
