Holy smoke! Give me some of that North Carolina Barbecue

There is nothing better than North Carolina barbecue (where I come from bbq means chopped pork). I’m particularly fond of the eastern NC, vinegar-based, barbecue (although mustard based bbq in South Carolina is pretty darn good too, I never miss a chance to visit Piggy Park in Cayce, SC).

Here’s a slide show primer on eastern NC barbecue that features Allen & Sons in Chapel Hill. Also check out the article “Finger Lickin’ Research,” both items from, of all places, The Chronicle of Higher Education.

The best barbecue anywhere just might be at B’s in Greenville, NC.
