As long as people are throwing out opinions. I’m another that preaches, good bbq doesn’t need sauce. I’m not a fan of KC style smothered in thick sweet sauce. If I use any store bought sauce, it’s Stubs spicy. There is more to Q than just beef. I like to cook a variety. Pulled pork butts are great. When we used to butcher hogs for ourselves years back, they were fead fall dropped apples from the local orchards for a month before slaughter. It makes the meat sweeter. I don’t mind a little Carolina mustard sauce at times. Not a fan of vinegar sauce. I make my own Memphis style rub for ribs, it works good on other meats also. There is a local bbq joint in the mountains above me. The owner is from Lockhart Texas. A big bbq area. People stand in line for a couple hours everyday for his brisket. People that have eaten my brisket, like mine better. I’ve already mentioned some other options for smoked meat. Right now I have 20 lbs of chicken leg quarters in brine for tomorrow morning. As long as your cookin and enjoy what you make, it doesn’t matter what others around the country think. I would be willing to go visit the pirate for a couple of those wild pigs. I would like to try my hand at cookin them low and slow!
 
Not enough heat.
There are different needs for BBQ. Low and slow, and cook my rib eye. I use charcoal for my rib eye, and my traeger for low and slow. There are several versions of this.

P.S. I cook 300 pounds a week of brisket for a local restaurant, and they keep running out. I won’t increase my volume.

That is SOUTH Carolina Mustard sauce. NC has two kinds Eastern and Western. You wouldn't like Western as it is tomato based but a lot of vinegar. Eastern is no tomatoes, oil, a bit of vinegar and red pepper.
 
IMG_1057.JPG Texan born and bred and prefer no sauce but in my travels, I've learned to appreciate all BBQ. Only problem is the left-coasters that call anything cooked on a grill 'barbecue'.

This smoker is considered a 'medium' in Texas. I can only do four briskets and two turkeys at a time on it...
