Gawd... I had bragged to Lonnie earlier that I was heading for a local
North Carolina BBQ eatery, which was supposed to have been REAL GOOD!
Well, the chicken had no smoke flavor at all, except in the ketchup
based sauce all over it. It could have been just steamed, then baked...
rubber chicken, ya know? The chopped pork was pretty good, but had none
of the skin chopped up in it, ala Eastern Carolina Style. 

A pile of Hush Puppys that are still looking back at me and some Cole
slaw that had a dash of ketchup in it, ala Lexington NC, which made it
look like the cook cut himself in it. $7 and a buck tip. <sigh> You guys
had me slavvering for some dusky, heavily smoked, grease drippin',
gruntin' mama sow <snort snort>, Fred Flintstone ribs that I could beat
someone who crossed me with. And, cooked clear to the bone... please. 

Damnit man! I wonder if they'd tolerate me in Nevada? Maybe I belong
with the Mob. huh... then I could spit and cuss a lot. Ric
