I never wrap and I think it’s the best way to go.

I've been doing Carolina style for more than 20 years and I've never needed a binder for the rub. I rub the night before and put it back in the refrigerator overnight and the rub adheres beautifully. My rub starts with 1/4 cup of hot paprika and then has: • 2 tablespoons salt • 2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper • 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper • 2 tablespoons chili powder • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar • 2 tablespoons brown sugar • 2 tablespoons ground cumin One key element missing is that in the Carolinas we tend to use Hickory wood for smoking and that's going to deliver a different flavor than post oak. If I'm doing brisket, I'll use oak but for pork, it's always either Hickory or Apple. I leave the fat cap on but I score it to allow the rub to penetrate. I want the fat to render and self-baste. Removing the fat probably does make the cooking time a little more predictable since the evaporative cooling from the rendering fat is what causes the "stall". I NEVER wrap because I don't like what it does to the bark. I'd also suggest letting it rest in a dry cooler for at least an hour before pulling. The biggest debate in the Carolinas is over the sauce. Eastern NC prefers vinegar-based with no ketchup, Western NC prefers a red sauce and South Carolina adds a mustard-based sauce to the mix. I personally prefer the Eastern style.

Being a BBQ devotee and a happy owner of a Big Green Egg for 25 years, I have lived in both North Carolina and Texas ( Charlotte and San Antonio respectively). I LOVE them both. They are VERY different. But, my personal preference for BBQ "style" is TEXAS. Especially their beef brisket and ribs, turkey, and sausages. I also very much appreciate Kansas City and St. Louis styles of BBQ, Memphis style, and Cajun style.I've tried Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Arabian, Argentinian, and Turkish style BBQ. Now, at age 71, I have come to the conclusion that my true preference is Texas style BBQ. That's just me.

Eastern North Carolina Pulled Pork everyday of the week and twice on Sunday. That Eastern NC vinegar sauce truly elevates the flavor of the pork to a whole other level. The proper way to eat NC pulled pork is start with a nice soft Bun, place a heaping amount of pulled pork, put you about 5 shakes of you favorite vinegar based Hot Sauce (I prefer Texas Pete's) Then put you a nice scoop of peppery southern Coleslaw on top and you got something Special.

One more tip from South Carolina. After the meat is done and pulled , place some green Hickory wood on the coals and on a sheep pan, spread out the meat and allow it to smoke for about half hour. That get the hickory flavor into all the meat that did get any flavor with the initial smoking. Chef Jerry. The green wood is where the most flavor comes from, not the dried wood you have to use to make smoke and keep the fire going.

@BeardMan01

Hash actually has a little pork liver and head meat. It's mostly the "leftovers" finely minced. It's cooked with starches like potatoes to make it thick and is cooked for a long time. It's actually very hard to make well. If not done right, it has a very heavy mineral/liver taste.

I enjoyed it. I like both styles as well and go back and forth depending on my mood.

They both look great. I use yellow mustard as a base here in NC with my home made rub (Brown sugar, salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder, paprika, cayenne) and it works great.

I was born and raised here in Western North Carolina, and spent several years in Weatherford, Texas as an adult. I also have family down in East Carolina. So I've grown to have a deep appreciation for each style of BBQ. You're right about Western Carolina sauce being more like a Texas sauce with tomatoes and sugar being primary ingredients. Eastern Carolina sauce/rub is strictly vineger, hot peppers and salt. Also, Eastern Carolina BBQ is a split whole hog roasted over a pit of oak and hickory coals. There are some people down east who will fight you, if you refer to anything else as BBQ. Another style of BBQ in N.C. is Lexington, which uses pork shoulders and a slightly thick sauce made of tomatoes, vinegar and sugar. South Carolina on the otherhand uses mustard based sauces and rubs.

Thats the magic of S&P. Coupled with the right smoke, magic happens

Great video... love that you got the neighbors involved!

I'm definitely going to try the Carolina-style real soon, it looked great! However, I would like to see this same test to some Carolina residents.
