Pulled Pork mit Stone’s geheimer Sauce in fluffigem Brötchen – Landhaus Flottbek, Hamburg, www.landhaus-flottbek.de
Fired up the smoker for the feast on the fourth. 16lbs of pork shoulder, four bags of hickory chunks, my rub and mop sauce combined to make for a very happy group of folks during the fireworks on the beach! The best part is the leftovers...
Please let me know which shot you prefer and why!

Tonight was a very pleasant evening over at Dave and Carol's, where we enjoyed some pulled pork in tasty rolls with some coleslaw.
It's always an evening of easy company, and was a very pleasant diversion for the evening.
As an interesting follow up, this is actually the product of the earlier featured shmoked Dutch joint! :D
A mouth watering platter of mac n' cheese and two pounds of meat (mashed potatoes not pictured): moist brisket, pulled pork, turkey and ribs. Everything was amazing. Possibly the best pulled pork Ive ever had, top 5 brisket and ribs. They even offer complimentary desserts for dine-in customers. This place is a must-try for any BBQ lover.

From Sept. 7 through 9, 2007, we visited Chapel Hill, N.C. for "Camp Carolina," a three-day special event from Southern Foodway Alliance. It was an amazing three days, starting with a delicious local food, beer and wine reception at the classic The Carolina Inn (where we also stayed) through lectures, field trips and lots of opportunities for delicious Southern Food.
One of the highlights of the trips for me was meeting john T. Edge, one of my favorite food writers, who heads up Southern Foodway Alliance. I have all of John T.'s books, including "Southern Belly," "Fried Chicken," "Doughnuts" and "Hamburger." I had him autograph my copy of "Southern Belly."
John T. is an awesome guy and so passionate about his work. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting him and getting to know him.
Over the course of the next couple of days, we did several great things, including visiting the Carrboro Farmers' Market. This huge, seasonal market was amazing and filled with producers offering produce of all sorts, pork, beef, poultry and dairy, as well as prepared foods like jams, jellies and relishes.
We were fortunate that during our visit there was a special event - Southern Fare: Six Farm Fresh Recipes from Six Local Chefs who regularly shop at the market.
These chefs included:
Kevin Callaghan of Acme
Damon Lapas and Jonathan Childres of The Barbecue Joint
Charlie Deal of Jujube
Bret Jennings of Elaine's on Franklin
Amy Tornquist of Watts Grocery
Andrea Reusing of Lantern Restaurant
Speaking of Lantern Restaurant, later during our trip we visited for an incredible meal. The menu, written with the farm-to-table concept in mind, comes from chef Andrea Reusing, who also heads the local Slow Food USA chapter.
More food we loved came from Allen & Son Barbeque, just outside Chapel Hill. This was classic North Carolina-style barbecue, and some of the best I've had. The smallish, single floor wooden eatery was filled with country charm. Green gingham tablecloths, super sweet iced tea, piquant vinegar-based sauce, creamy cole slaw and perfect pulled pork made it an especially memorable meal.
An incredible meal was also enjoyed at Bill Smith's Crook's Corner.
Other stops included the area Whole Food to look at their selection of local produce. We didn't stop by A Southern Season, a gourmet purveyor, on this trip, but it is almost always on my must-visit list whenever I am in town.

It's all about the sweet and tangy barbecue sauce, and not so much about the pulled pork which was a tad dry. Perhaps a slab of smoked pork belly would be nice.
Great crunchy chips though!

One of the highlights of the trips for me was meeting john T. Edge, one of my favorite food writers, who heads up Southern Foodway Alliance. I have all of John T.'s books, including "Southern Belly," "Fried Chicken," "Doughnuts" and "Hamburger." I had him autograph my copy of "Southern Belly."
John T. is an awesome guy and so passionate about his work. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting him and getting to know him.
Over the course of the next couple of days, we did several great things, including visiting the Carrboro Farmers' Market. This huge, seasonal market was amazing and filled with producers offering produce of all sorts, pork, beef, poultry and dairy, as well as prepared foods like jams, jellies and relishes.
We were fortunate that during our visit there was a special event - Southern Fare: Six Farm Fresh Recipes from Six Local Chefs who regularly shop at the market.
These chefs included:
Kevin Callaghan of Acme
Damon Lapas and Jonathan Childres of The Barbecue Joint
Charlie Deal of Jujube
Bret Jennings of Elaine's on Franklin
Amy Tornquist of Watts Grocery
Andrea Reusing of Lantern Restaurant
Speaking of Lantern Restaurant, later during our trip we visited for an incredible meal. The menu, written with the farm-to-table concept in mind, comes from chef Andrea Reusing, who also heads the local Slow Food USA chapter.
More food we loved came from Allen & Son Barbeque, just outside Chapel Hill. This was classic North Carolina-style barbecue, and some of the best I've had. The smallish, single floor wooden eatery was filled with country charm. Green gingham tablecloths, super sweet iced tea, piquant vinegar-based sauce, creamy cole slaw and perfect pulled pork made it an especially memorable meal.
An incredible meal was also enjoyed at Bill Smith's Crook's Corner.
Other stops included the area Whole Food to look at their selection of local produce. We didn't stop by A Southern Season, a gourmet purveyor, on this trip, but it is almost always on my must-visit list whenever I am in town.
