Church Fundraiser
I've done many bbq fundraisers for church and missions, and always use the 1/3 pound (4 oz) for sandwiches and 1/2 pound (8 oz) for plates. This gives a gracious plenty meat for each meal. Usually serve Cole slaw and baked beans on the plate (with a dinner roll), or just Coleslaw on the...- aqreview

Went to a Q Contest today
Judging is a hard job, but somebody has to do it! I've only been judging for a year now, but I absolutely LOVE it!!!!!!! Already "certified" by KCBS and the North Carolina Pork Council, and will be attending the judging training by the Memphis Barbecue Network the Friday after next in...- aqreview

BBQ Judge
Actually, it really isn't that difficult to judge the different entries, as you DON'T compare one to another. You just determine how good each entry is on its own. It is hard NOT to compare, but the KCBS guidelines are NOT to compare against each other or against any preconceived notion of...- aqreview

Greetings from North Carolina
Hey Everybody! I just found this site a few days ago and figured I'd best introduce myself. I've been reviewing and rating Q-joints throughout North Carolina (and elsewhere whenever available) for the past many years. I've been writing a book delineating my opinions on Q-joints and their... -
Whole Hog
Is there a particular reason for wanting to cook the whole hog??? I've found that cooking just shoulders and butts yeilds the most/best quality meat without the waste, mess, and hassle of working with a 100+ pound pig. Just throw 6-8 shoulders on instead of the whole hog and your yeild will be... -
BBQ Spots Shutting Down
Lexington has some good Q, but I prefer a couple places in High Point to anything that I've tried in Lexington. Country BBQ and Big Joe's BBQ in High Point beat anything that I've had in Lexington and I've been to MOST of the Q-Joints in Lexington. I'll take the cook-out in a pinch, but I'd much...- aqreview
