That Texas thread kind of brought this to mind, so whats the best BBQ? In my opinion it doesnt get any better than Carolina style. Total sucker for the Vinegar/ Mustard based sauces. Also the sides that come with that style, too. Hush puppies, some of the best Cole Slaw I've ever had, Hash(!). So whats the best BBQ?

Santa Maria Tri-tip and Chicken BBQ is best in the west. Cooked over an open pit of Red Oak.

Sometimes we use a marinade, sometimes a dry rub. No matter what though, it has to be cooked slowly with lots of smoke.

Our sides are basically French Bread, halved Artichokes, Bacon Wrapped Asparagus, Linguica and sometimes Sweet Breads.

Then we wash it down with some good wine.

Guess what I'm doing this weekend?

LOVE the BBQ! I've had several different iterations of the art but my all-time favorite is what you get when you go out for BBQ in Carolina. I haven't been back there in over 35 years but I still remember good ol' Blackwelder's in Davie County had the best damn pulled pork sammiches I ever ate. Washed down with a couple bottles of Cheerwine, nothing any better. I still send for a case of Cheerwine now and then so we can slow cook a pork shoulder and have a good ol' Carolina style BBQ pic-a-nic.

 

I enjoy BBQing boneless country-style poke ribs, too. MOF, we just got some from the butcher shop yesterday and gonna have 'em this afternoon. :)

God I miss Texas BBQ. I've had it SC and NC, but Texas is the best. The SC stuff that a runny vinegar sauce. Hated it.

Really? Come on now.

I live in one of the world's finest wine growing regions. We're famous for our Pinot Noir' date=' Syrah, and Chardonnay.

Since I run the pit, it's beer then wine.

And I am the farthest thing from a Yuppie. I'm a simple family man and connoisseur of good taste. Don't be so quick to judge. The wines I drink are some of the world's best because they grow so well here in the Santa Maria Valley and surrounding areas. You should try some.

Cheers.

I'm just the opposite. Personally I can't stand the vinegar/mustard sauces and I much prefer BBQ beef to BBQ pork. For me it's a neck-n-neck tossup between Texas and Kansas City Style. KC Masterpiece Original Sauce is absolutely wonderful.

 

I used to joke that if I lived long enough to retire I was gonna move to the Texas gulf coast & eat myself to death. Between the BBQ, seafood, and Mexican Food (yes, I AM one of those 'taco-eaters') it probably wouldn't take long.

Joe's BBQ Gilbert AZ - Hand's down best beef brisket and pulled pork with either standard or spicy sauce if your brave. Everything made by hand even the rootbeer and cream soda. Side are good old fashioned P salad, Cole Slaw, Beans with Pork, Corn, Cheesy Potatoes or if your serious about otatoes you can get a salt crusted baked potato that looks like a football where somebody sanded the logo off biggest damn spuds ive ever seen.

 

This isn't a empty claim either they have a wall of awards and the Food channel show Diner's and Dives or whatever it was called was there and agreed...

I just had BBQ. We have an awesome little mom and pop spot here that serves BBQ they make out back. It rocked.

 

 

I had the brisket. My son (half school day) had the pulled pork. Daughter had rib tips. Mom had pulled pork. Dad had hand breaded tenderloin.

 

Awesome.

I'm one of the old boys From Slaughter to platter. Save the head for breakfast half way thru cooken. Hog brains and eggs, Fresh cracklen,and Tounge. Got to pickel the feet, eyes. Got plastered more then once at a three day weekend party. So to the other cookers what was your favorite wood mix for cooken? I like a good Oak coal, On that I use a slight damp hickory. I get a good smoke thru the whole Bar-B-Que. I've got to build another Drum to cook in. The last one we added a rotisserie from an old washer motor.

I love BBQ...my dad likes to get a whole lamp and cook it in this big BBQ thingy.

 

lamps are hard to clean, if you slow cook em they soften up nicely. The wires are a bit stingy though.
