I'm in BBQ heaven

Recommended Posts

Around these parts, Western Central NC, they sell this crap that they call BBQ... is a bunch of nasty-assed, vinegar-based watered down drivil that I swear is unfit for most human consumption. No, seriously... it's tastes like crap. AND THEY KNOW IT! ... why else would they serve it under a heaping pile of coleslaw?

This being said... most folks around these parts are kinda biased towards it, to the point of being proud. :S and they even came up with their own name for it: Carolina BBQ. [:/]

Randomly f'n thingies up since before I was born...

I'm more of a Memphis BBQ guy myself with Texas running a very distant 2nd.
Maybe we should start the "Carolinians against Carolina BBQ" group. We could get the new masters to give us our own forum and they could sell pop-up ads to the different sauce brands:D

Lucky you. I can't find good BBQ in Florida, unless I do it myself.



Try Jack's in Panama City. Jack Smith was an Air America pilot, and has the place packed with memorabilia that make the trip very interesting, as well as satisfying to the palate.

That sounds like what they call BBQ in Florida. BBQ is not supposed to be synonymous with pickled meat. :S

If I make it to Panama City, I'll give it a try, but so far my experience has been that if you go very far east of Memphis or very far west of Kansas City, the word barbeque loses its meaning and associated flavor.

It's never a good sign when all of the chairs match in a barbecue joint.

What is it with men and BBQ? I have never heard a women rave about it . . .



Then you haven't been around me enough. ;) I am a BBQ fiend when I'm in Texas. But all I do in California is bitch about how bad the BBQ is out here. :ph34r::( I even have it shipped from Texas sometimes, just so I can get a fix.

Wow, you're probably the perfect woman for many men.



Yeah, you definitely haven't been around me enough if you're saying that. :P I'm too psycho for most men to deal with.

And Rich doesn't even eat red meat, so he doesn't share my love for good brisket. He probably prefers quiche to BBQ. :D

Have fun at work. :)

It's all about cooking big hunks of meat outdoors with smoke and fire, with the end result being bad for you. What more could a guy want?B|



That just needs this for a followup:

(Mmmmmm BBQ...I'm getting hungry, now.)



HA! Just before opening this thread, I was raving about BBQ to a friend...lol. Well, actually it was more about the crazy encounter at the very out-of-the-way BBQ place. But were it not for the NEED for really good BBQ and the almost excessive effort to get there, the encounter would never have happened.

BBQ. Mmmmmmm.
