re: Rank SEC states by their BBQ (Missouri spinoff)

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.

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.
