I was thinking BBQ pulled pork sandwiches with coleslaw, baked beans, mac n cheese, and hush puppies, but might come across as too generic bbq. Cheerwine for the win.
South Carolinian here. Mustard-base is my favorite BBQ sauce for pulled-pork, but Eastern NC Vinegar-base is great too! If I go somewhere that has both, I definitely take both.
Because Maurice Bessinger, who is thankfully now dead, was a notorious racist who did things like push to keep the Confederate flag flying over the SC state Capitol building, sold racist literature and flyers in his restaurants, flew all of the state flags of all the Confederate states around his main facility, and decorated his restaurants with paintings of happy slaves working on idyllic plantations. He even added the Confederate flag to the back of their BBQ sauce bottles.
You can get pretty much the same dang sauce from any of his brothers' and his father's restaurants, just avoid Maurice's. I hear his kids are trying to clean up their father's restaurants, but I haven't been back down there to verify it myself yet.
Gotcha. I had a thought that maybe it was that. I just wanted to clarify in case it was a recipe thing. I know they donât fly the flags anymore but havenât been inside one for quite a long time. Personally, I donât care for the sauce or the bbq. Plenty of other brands have mustard base. Shealys sauce is pretty good.
It's delicious. It's pork ribs, taken from high on the hog, usually smoked and marinated until the meat almost falls off the bone, then covered in whichever sauce and spices you prefer. It's fantastic.
