Carolina BBQ

All right, well I finally at at the infamous restaurant, The Pit!! And had their Eastern North Carolina chopped pork and it was great. It motivated me to put up the recipe I found for Carolina vinegar based BBQ sauce. Here it is, I really didn't accurately measure ingredients and changed it a bit. I highly suggest going to the link I provide and reading the other reviews, they helped me.

"This type of sauce is popular in North Carolina. You can use this sauce as a basting sauce, or just mix it into your cooked meat when you are ready to eat."

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup cider vinegar

1 tablespoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1 tablespoon brown sugar

(Jill’s changes – after letting it sit over night, I heated it up and added more brown sugar and Franks/Texas Pete hot sauce to it).

DIRECTIONS:

1.In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, salt, cayenne pepper, crushed red pepper flakes and brown sugar. Mix well and allow ingredients to mesh for about 4 to 8 hours before using.
