How To Peel A Hard-Boiled Egg
My great-aunt taught me to peel off a little shell and membrane, enough to gently insert a teaspoon, with the bowl facing the egg. Run the spoon around the curve of the egg, and it will pop right out.

Pork shoulder with N.C.-style vinegar-pepper sauce, pulled or sliced, not chopped.
Or brisket with a sweet-spicy tomato-based sauce, on a sandwich with bread-and-butter pickles.

I'm actually quite partial to smoked ham, oddly enough.

Pulled Pork is among my favorite foods on the planet.
I learned how to do it in Asheville, NC, and now I can do it just as good as ANYONE.
Thank goodness for small favors!

I know it's not barbecue, but if the grill's hot, it's got to be brats.

Definitely pulled pork from Rudy's in Albuquerque...I guess it's the same Rudy's in Texas. The pork is so juicy it doesn't need any additional sauce. I like it served on a nice roll --hard crust, soft inside --to soak up the juice.

At home with my WSM smoker my best accomplishments have been pork shoulder,12-16 hours at 200-225 over a mesquite lump/hickory mix with a turbinado sugar & red pepper-based rub, pulled and served on squishy generic supermarket hamburger buns with slaw & Piedmont-style sauce. I am quite promiscuous regarding region/style and pretty much run the gamut except for chicken. Taylor’s Sausages here in Oakland make very good links and I can usually find room for a few in the smoker.
In the ‘cue joints I favor brisket, particularly Memphis Minnie’s in the Lower Haight.

I gave my husband this cookbook for father's day a couple years ago and he loves it. Big Bob Gibson's hickory-smoked chicken with Alabama white sauce is awesome. I love this book!
My favorite barbecue is a big platter of pulled pork with sweet barbecue sauce, baked beans, and sweet potato fries.

Personally I think a lot of it tends to come down to what type of place it is or what area of the country I am in. For example, in Texas, its brisket and nothing else. Pulled pork in the south, etc.
If pressed, my absolute favorite is pulled pork, there is just something magical about what happens when you combine the noble pig, time, lots of smoke and spice.

The BarbeReuban at the Bailey's Smokehouse in Blauvelt - luscious, moist, smoky brisket, with all the trappings of a fine reuben. Best. Sandwich. Ever.

Either the whole-hog barbecues that my Dad's family does for family reunions or the smoked chicken at Barnes' Barbecue in Lemon Grove, CA, a suburb of San Diego. The former is only available about once a decade, but the later is available pretty much every day-- if you live near there. Unfortunately, I live eight hours north! *pouts*

When I lived in the mid-west, I'd search out some corrugated metal roofed leanto and smile and order ribs...they always came with a slice of white bread. Now that I am west of the Mississippi.....I haven't really met any bad barbeque, really. Included in my best memories was anything that came from a converted Das Weinerschnitzel (sp?) place in Tucson...oh my. Baby back ribs or almost any pulled pork does the trick for me now. Yum, I'm drooling on the old keyboard.............sigh.

Ugh, how to choose! But, being a good Texan, I have to say a good brisket smoked excruciatingly slow until it all but melts in your mouth.
