Congratulations John, and everyone over at team #237, from another team celebrating ten years this year, 228 Gus!

I'm marking down the date, as long as there aren't any conflicts, I'll stop by. Mmmmm... love pulled pork.

Guess we need to speed up our 10th year celebration planning.

Oy, you're reminding me that I'm going into my fifth season! Way to make me feel old, Boucher!

Just one required question from the aficionado: Mustard-based, ketchup-based, or vinegar-based pulled pork?

Astute question, Billfred. Of course there would be no such question down on the Black River, in SC, where pulled pork originated because only city folks and Yankees use forks. Long, slow cooking and vinegar-based seasoning ensured that nothing beyond ones own good fingers need come between meat and mouth.

But in these modern times, city folks and Yankees have developed a taste for pulled pork, so the question is pertinent: what style do they prefer?

Wouldn't 10-23-07 be more appropriate given the occasion?

Maybe, but Tuesdays aren't as good as Sundays for gala celebrations!

What I would give to be able to come! It sounds delicious!

Luckily, since it's on a Sunday I should be able to leave campus to go. Because as anyone familiar with GUS Team 228 knows, we love hickory-smoked pulled pork!

It's great when one of the parents of a student on your team has a gaint smoker, for slowly smoking the pork. It makes for great team barbeques.

I'm a vinegar guy. Now, although NC is famous for vinegar-based pork, there is a line drawn down the state that segregates the taste buds. The farther east you go, you'll get vinegar based barbeque and slaw. Especially Wilson County, with famous restaurants like Bill's and Parkers. However, in the West, mountainous, and High Point area you get ketchup based barbeque, which is also quite good. Theres alot of old-timey restaurants you can find if you know where to look that are great representations of these areas. All in all, Carolina barbeque is still VERY good.

Pork is a very serious topic in North Carolina. Where else can you advertise for your robotics team at an event known as "Hog Day"?
