In my experience, Pinkerton’s beats Killen’s. Try that out if you haven’t yet.
I was in Houston visiting a friend at MD Anderson and his request to have barbeque for what turned out to be his last time had me on a mission.
I asked around and then looked online which both pointed me to Pinkerton's. It was incredibly good and I have had BBQ all over the country.

Yes, I’ve heard about Truth BBQ getting high praise also. Prices are going up.

Glad to hear it. I was surprised how much flavor the “lean cut” had.

Looks way too clean.
This is what a proper bbq place looks like:

The History of Barbecue in the South
Thanks, but Texas isn't the south.

pretty sure that is what makes Pulled pork BBQ and brisket a meat that you smoke (hence, NOT bbq)

Amarillo is ok... but it’s nothing special compared to Houston, Austin, and some of the other usual spots along the Texas bbq trail.

you are correct, but you did imply there was some origin to "BBQ", which the link will gladly explain to your little aggie self, concluding with "texas isn't bbq"

Yes. The article states that the south stole the cooking style from other cultures. So did Texas. So what's your point?

Jackie Hite, of Hites BBQ fame and the guy in my OP, was a master and a HUGE Carolina fan.

When I went, brisket was pretty average, but the ribs with the candy paint were fantastic.

If you're talking pork butts I might agree, but if we're talking Whole Hog, that's something TOTALLY different.

okay, but 99% of pulled pork is just the shoulder.

Now we're getting somewhere...
I'd say that's 99% of what people make, the shoulder. The real deal is the whole hog.

Pork is for poor people
who do you think created BBQ? Rich people?
BBQ (or slow cooking meat over an indirect flame) comes from the native Americans. We "discovered" BBQ when Hernando Desoto was was exploring present day Tupelo, MS. What was the meat you ask? Pork.
The entire reason BBQ exists was because pork was abundant and cheap for colonists in the South.
Texas didn't enter the fold with beef BBQ until many moons later.
