Funny I can walk into a bbq joint in any Southeastern state and simply order "bbq" and they know exactly what it is that I want.


That's because they probably don't even have brisket on the menu. Those areas are full of trees and devoid of cattle operations.

That doesn't mean brisket is not BBQ. Again, BBQ is a cooking method. You can BBQ a fricking squirrel

...it is automatically understood that bbq is pulled pork.


I guess the breaded pork chop that my wife made the other night qualifies as BBQ.......

I'll admit I like both pork and beef BBQ. Pulled pork is my fave, followed by brisket, ribs on down the list for me.

Traditionally BBQ is whole hog smoked over a pit.

From Wikipedia:

quote:

In the United States, barbecue refers to a technique of cooking that involves cooking pulled pork outdoors, over a fire; often this is called pit barbecue, and the facility for cooking it is the barbecue pit. This form of cooking adds a distinctive smoky taste to the meat; barbecue sauce, while a common accompaniment, is not required for many styles.[1]

Often the proprietors of Southern-style barbecue establishments in other areas originate from the South. In the South, barbecue is more than just a style of cooking, but a subculture with wide variation between regions, and fierce rivalry for titles at barbecue competitions.

I'd probably have Kentucky around 6. I'm legitimately curious why you have us that high. A BBQ mutton fan?

And need to head down to Moonlight and get some burgoo.

From the same page...

quote:

While the standard modern English spelling of the word is barbecue, variations including barbeque and truncations such as bar-b-q or BBQ may also be found.[8] The spelling barbeque is given in Merriam-Webster and the Oxford Dictionaries as a variant.[9][10] In the southeastern United States, the word barbecue is used predominantly as a noun referring to roast pork, while in the southwestern states cuts of beef are often cooked

My apologies, I did not catch that part.

We'll fight almost to the death over bbq in the South so we all might as well agree to disagree.

Nope.
Cajun is its own thing.
Amazing seafood doesn't have to be creole.
No one's looking to rip off that bayou cuisine.

Best BBQ I've had yet was at a roadside joint in South Carolina called Soggy Bottom BBQ. They serve a brisket sandwich on an onion roll with Havarti cheese and horseradish sauce. It's frickin wonderful. I've seriously thought about driving back out there just to get some more.

Gas Man is right in that Rodney Scott opened a place in Charleston, but the original in Hemingway is awesome. It's like stepping back in time, as Williamsburg County is like SC's version of the MS Delta. That drive is worth it for the cotton fields alone.

Beef is great for steaks but if BBQ is not pork then it just sucks. Sorry no arguments accepted.



Damn, you suck for making me agree with the aggies, but limiting meat for barbecue is at least short sighted if not retarded. Beef ribs and brisket are heavenly as well as pulled pork, sausage (all meats), chicken (ala beer can) and unlimited wild game.

I won't weigh into the dry versus wet rub subject, but I have had great meals featuring both methods. Now, start putting a load of mustard in the sauce and you lose me.

My favorite BBQ place in Atlanta (Fox Bros) was started by two guys from Texas. I like Daddy Dz as well.

Agreed. Though I do live in Louisiana and love the seafood we get here, I've had very good seafood before in Mobile and all over Florida. Though I've never been to South Carolina, I'd have to imagine that they've got some good stuff there too.

South Carolinians east of Sumter and north of McClellanville do not eat mustard based BBQ. It is strictly pepper vinegar. In fact, many of us in the Pee Dee region of SC consider mustard based BBQ a sin. Go to Scott's in Hemingway, Brown's in Kingstree, McCabe's in Manning, Schoolhouse in Scranton or Shuler's in Latta.
