Thanks Mark. NC BBQ on the Eastern Part of the state that locals rave about
is the worst BBQ I have ever had. I grew up on Florida and most of our BBQ
was more Midwest, Kentucky, Tennesse style. NC is pork with vinegar.
Horrible for me.

I imagine the only wine that would go with BBQ might be Asti Spumante' or a
slightly sweet Reisling. Beer would work for me but I really don't drink
beer.
