    Whatever it is called...it was too much vinegar for me... so what does a cook from NJ know? Well, I grew up in Philly and tasted some of the best bbq in little local bbq joints. Smiles.

    My parents would also take us to Lawnside, NJ where they barbqued on open grills and pits right outsideon thelawns. Yes, they did and it was the bestbbq you could wrap your lips around.

    I added some mustard, brown sugar, onion powder and tomato paste to thicken it up and it tasted pretty good.

    It was also good on a whole cut-up chicken baked in the oven...

    BBQ tastes different all over the country and everyone has their own taste buds, so what the heck!

    This sauce just was too much vinegar for me.

    And yes, aother reviewer was right. We called it sliced or chopped barbque too and with some of the skin mixed in...it made the best chopped bbq sandwiches. And I used a pork butt, a Smithfield pork butt, so maybe that's Virginia style bbq.

    I cant believe I am reading people getting upset over what is and isnt bbq..Who cares as long as it tastes good..I am from Buffalo...I could say the same thing about the sad recipes I see that says anything that is orange colored and a little spicy is "Buffalo" this or that. Or those who call for it to be baked or use hot pepper flakes instead of Franks Hot sauce, or those who put ranch on it and call it "Buffalo" Who cares? For one there are more important things to get upset over, and two who cares if it tastes good and someone likes it. Do you honestly think that I recipe I get online (which could be from anywhere is "Authentic"? Not to mention the recipe is called NC STYLE bbq..it does not say AUTHENTIC NC bbq..

    Im from the south and we have all kinds of saucies,I truly loved this one! I do add i little more spice to mine becouse like it hot...Just a touch..of ghost pepper sauce..does the trick for me,but be carefull..ghost peppers...are not for everyone they will light you up! With or without I like it both ways.

    I am from Raleigh, NC and i tailgate for ECU and NC State football game so this is coming right from the horses mouth. IT'S AUTHENTIC!! I have been all over North Carolina and this just as good if not better than Eastern NC BBQ (the one everyone loves! SO anyone on here that says it's not authentic or it's not NC BBQ is obviously not from or has never had NC BBQ!!!!

    I dont care whether its authentic or not, this recipe is fantastic! Everytime I've made it for a party everyone asks "who made the pulled pork". Then I direct them to the recipe. Ive had pulled form lots of places and this so closely resembles the dish at a restaurant whose owners are from the Carolinas. Love it!

    So you dare to try our BBQ and then insult us at the same time .... Sounds like something a Yankee would say . Shelley keep it under wraps ! That's how awesome BBQ starts anyways ... a little of this a little of that and you never tell . Why would someone from NY think that they would know anything about NC BBQ anyways ....

    Keeping it under wraps lol... Most southerners are backwood hicks anyway. They probably use roadkill possums for the pork.. GO NC !!!

    This is Not NC style Pulled pork. You don't put garlic in it,either!

    if you truly want to know, ask an expert who makes it all the time.
    Google the recipes from NC BBQ Pulled Pork and find one that you know is real.
