North Carolina Barbecue: Smoky, Tangy, and Totally Unexpected! 🐖🔥

North Carolina barbecue is something else—tender pulled pork, slow-cooked for hours, and drenched in a tangy vinegar-based sauce that’s got a little kick. The first bite was a total surprise; I expected sweet, but it’s all about that sharp, smoky flavor. Tried it at a roadside joint during a road trip, and honestly, it was way different from the sticky, saucy barbecue I grew up with. The slaw on top? Crunchy and fresh, perfect contrast. Didn’t expect to be this impressed by such a simple plate. North Carolina knows what’s up. #NorthCarolinaBBQ #FoodAdventure #PulledPork #Food
