That was my experience, as well, while staying a few days in the
Research Triangle area. I had some good ribs at a couple places, but I
wasn't impressed by the pulled pork. It lacked any serious smoke
flavor, and its texture was unappealing. It was mushy, as if it had
been steamed. I like my pulled pork a bit more stringy, with some
bite.
