BBQ is a very regional cuisine. Avoid Disappointment by knowing what
regional style is prevalent where you are dining. I mentioned in a conversation yesterday that in North Carolina you
should have different expectations depending on how far west you are in
the state: >From Wikipedia: "Two styles [of BBQ] predominate in different parts of North Carolina. Eastern North Carolina barbecue is made by the use of the "whole hog",
where the entire pig is barbecued and the meat from all parts of the pig
are chopped and mixed together. Eastern North Carolina barbecue also
uses a thin sauce made of spices and vinegar. Western North Carolina barbecue is made from only the pork shoulder,
which is mainly dark meat, and uses a thicker tomato-based sauce." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbecue_in_the_United_States#Carolinas
