Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

Great recipes!

I'm big on vinegar based sauces, to which near anything can be added, very versatile.

"Kiss & Vinegar" is a GREAT name for a bbq sauce.
And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')

Wouldn't sound very appetizing in Swedish though, "kiss och vinäger" :twisted:

Nice recepies anyway, very interesting. Seems like smokiness is often favoured, and there's a whole category for whiskey (only bourbon and other corn based whiskies?) sauces. You could probably make a lovely sauce based on a smoky Islay
whisky :)

An extensive breakdown and good source
for recipes. I approve. I grew up in the NC
piedmont, which means that I have been
exposed to both eastern and western NC
styles. I like both but prefer East. But the
other day, I was in a BBQ joint called Dixie
Bell's and they have started putting out a
mustard sauce called Cattleman's Gold that
is terrific. I drenched my pulled pork in vinegar
sauce and then put the mustard sauce on
top. Holy cow. I feel like such a traitor, but
my mouth doesn't seem to care.

I don't know how idiomatic your english is, but it's a play on the expression "full of piss and vinegar", which is said of people who are aggressively contrary.

I recommend ["Smoke and Spice"] as a smoking guide. Very comprehensive and careful to explain all about mops and sauces and such. I have had great luck with that book and it covers the material at the site. It's good to have the book onhand for planning your smoking recipes, etc. I really love smokin' meat but I have only used a water smoker thus far, which does not render the pork or brisket down to pullin' consistency. My specialty are the drier meats. My brined then smoked rabbit is a winner. We put it in enchiladas the next day after smoking. Incredible.

Having just dropped a wad on a grill, I'm a bit on hold, but am planning on getting a new smoker, one of those two-parters with the firebox separately accessed from the cooking area.

I think the Carolina styles are the bomb for pork shoulder and such. We always use cole slaw as the "cooler" on the bun with the meat. KC/Texas is great for ribs.
How do you prepare for the end of the world?

Just because those recipes are so good, thank you, I lurked around a bit, and found this, by the same author.

I don't know how idiomatic your English could be, s1m0n, but what I thought you were saying could likely have been banned from even the PROCT forum!

Such saucy sauce!

I've always found 'vag' to be self-saucing.

When I could eat it I use to love western Carolina BBQ and I would often adulterate it with Westlow's Bonney pepper sauce from the Barbados in addition to using the dipping sauce from the resturant.
