    A boot camp in how to barbecue was featured in the local newspaper today. Perhaps this article will be a calling for some of the DBR lurkers and posters to sign up for the next boot camp. http://www2.journalnow.com/content/2...r-/news-local/

    The thing that's also funny is the picture is of California when they talk about Florida. Was that on purpose? I doubt it. Overall, though, an entertaining video.

    BBQ on the Food Network tonight

    According the the News & Observer, barbecue lovers and others will be able to watch pitmaster Ed Mitchell (The Pit located in Raleigh, NC) appear on "Throwdown! with Bobby Flay." The program will air at 8:30P on the Food Network. Napkins or paper towels are optional for viewers who will no doubt be drooling by the time the program ends. http://blogs.newsobserver.com/tv/ed-...y-flay-tonight

    LOL. That's because the Confederacy invented BBQ possum and rat spare ribs when food was scarce in 1865.

    I did find a decent BBQ place in Northern VA. I wouldn't call it amazing, but it will pass the time, and it claims to have "NC Style" 'cue.

    Thumbs up

    I talked to my buyer's agent this morning, and he said that the prices are still way too unrealistic. It's been just over two years looking now. I've got two more to go to be on schedule, so it will happen. Then it will be just a short drive (for a Texas resident) to Cameron any day of the week. After I stop at 12 Bones, of course, before leaving. This is the Duke vs Kentucky thread, you know, and we still have to remain on topic.

    Yes, they are fantastic. Just add some sides along with some pulled pork for under $10 (I hope the prices are the same as when I was there last) and 2 people can pig out.

    FYI, that's his second trip to 12 Bones - he was there in October 2008.

    /pulled pork plate, jalapeno cheese grits, greens, plus a side of blueberry chipotle ribs, washed down with a Wedge Iron Rail IPA ((for the win!))

    Give me the classic, Lexington Barbeque, on 85 Bypass. But if I'm in Winston-Salem visiting family and don't feel like driving to Lexington, I can live with Little Richard's. And if you're traveling out 158 into Advance and you see what looks like 2 big trailers pulled together with a sign saying Snooks, stop in and eat some great Peidmont Carolina barbeque with the natives. Pick up your hawg in one trailer and go eat in the other.

    And don't give me any of that Kentucky hog...that's not even barbeque.

    Just a darn minute. Who appointed Lexington BBQ as the best in North Carolina? They use ketchup, don't they? You have to come east for the best NC BBQ, period

    12 Bones: The meat is good and very well-cooked (tender, fat is well-rent), but I wouldn't say it's exceptional (not as smoky as I'd like...I suspect that they only have it on the smoker for a while and then finish it in an oven...pretty much SOP for high-volume places). They actually give you a variety of sauces, which is great but also means they cook the meat pretty plain. The sides, however, are amazing. They also serve beer.

    Seriously, the sides are amazing.
    And they serve beer.

    For you DC folks, it's like Old Glory (except for the fact that it's really, really good).

    Thumbs up Catch-up

    I caught the video the first time the pres went to 12 Bones a long time ago. He came back because he wanted his wife to have a taste.

    You have to get the coarse chopped with some of the classic outside brown when you go to Lexington #1 for the best flavor. The ketchup is for stuff on the side, although at least one of the sauces obviously has tomatoes in it. I don't remember how many different sauces they have. I guess I will have to just go back to find out. So, please don't tell me, as that is just one more reason I have to go back---as if I need any others.

    If you want a real smoke flavor, all I can say is ya'll come to Texas. Otherwise, just eat the sides and ignore the BBQ altogether, 'cause they really are fantastic at 12 Bones. I must admit, however, that the pulled pork doesn't even come close to the ribs in my opinion.

    Don't forget about Wilbur's out in Goldsboro for those of you in eastern NC.
