I didn’t get to read the entire thread.

So please clarify which are you talking about - pulled pork bbq or something else - that you prefer to beef brisket.

Carolina sauces on tasteless BBQ is the reason I spent the first 25+ years of my life hating it.

Good pulled pork doesn't need sauce.

Got it. Makes no sense to me if you’ve had the top shelf brisket. But I understand your preferences.

Probably just need to have a combined A&M/SC tailgate cookoff…

It’s a preference thing. Probably bc of how we grew up. I already barely like the taste of mustard. I can’t picture it on anything but a corn dog or hot dog.

Yeah, I had the same thought. Personal preference based on how or where we were raised.

I love ham and I love bacon, so it’s not an anti-pig thing, I had plenty of pulled pork sandwiches. But beef is still more like a steak and pork is more like a side dish to me.

I eat bacon and pork chops. And pork rind chips. That’s about it. To be honest, I don’t see a lot of pork options at meat shops or grocery stores.

How pork chops are cheaper in my area than bacon is crazy to me.

I agree it's a preference but normally around here you get to choose 2 meats so I normally get pork and ribs. The one thing Texas doesn't have is Hash and rice. I will eat myself sick with hash .

Carolina BBQ is arse. If it's between that shite and Texas, I'm down with Texas and it's not even remotely close. You'd have to pay me a decent sum of money to eat Carolina BBQ.

But the pulled pork I make is good enough that it doesn't need sauce. I do like my ribs with a combination of rub and BBQ sauce that is caramelized.

Only thing I have to add to this thread is that long ago when I first went to Columbia SC I went to a Maruice's BBQ not knowing anything about it and it cracked me up. A fat little mexican putting on yeller bbq sauce for the first time in a fast food bbq place filled with white pride literature and a virtually all black staff. True diversity.

i can't remember whether it was great or not because I was just taking in the ambiance. I did take a bottle of that sauce home.

A good rub on ribs doesn't need sauce if you know what you're doing.

You obviously don't know what you're doing and I wouldn't pay you shite since you don't have a clue.

Sure, but BBQ sauce doesn't suck arse and is especially good when the sugar in it caramelizes. Sweet and smokey.

I know what tastes good. And when it comes to BBQ, everywhere except the Carolina's has good BBQ.

A microwave BBQ dinner probably tastes better than what comes out of the Carolinas.

It's funny how quickly you changed me on this topic. Here I was ready to give Texas hell, and then you remind me of how terrible some people do pork.

Now I realize if that's also what Texans think people mean by pork BBQ, no wonder they think everyone is nuts.

I don't like the white sauce, but that's for chicken.
