It’s Eastern Carolina bbq or Coastal Carolina or Low Country bbq and traditional to both states’ coastal areas, It is basically heavily basted vinegar and pepper. No sauce needed if basted up to the time shortly before it hits your plate. I love it. My favorite. The Western Carolina bbq is basically just bbq with a tomato based sauce like you find across the country. Yeah, you find it in Western South Carolina too. Not much different than Memphis or KC. I grew up on it but have no love for it. Midlands South Carolina bbq is the stuff made with mustard and started by the original German families who settled in Columbia. It’s okay and a little different but not any better than ketchup based t Coastal Carolina BBQ for me. [/QUOTE]
