HeavyG said:500 said:Barbecue in America began in Virginia. Virginia owns the birthright to all barbecue styles in America. Memphis, North Carolina, (both Piedmont style and Eastern style), South Carolina, Georgia, Kansas City, Central Texas, East Texas, and Alabama styles all began in Virginia and splintered off Virginia style barbecue.
Probably is an unpopular opinion but it is also fact, not opinion. European settlers in Virginia in the early 1600's learned some techniques from the Powhatan tribe which morphed into the start of "American BBQ". So says Joseph R. Haynes, author of "Virginia Barbecue: A History" which came out a few years ago. Was a good read.
http://ocbarbecue.blogspot.com/?m=1and found some great information there. I reached out to him, and asked him for barbecue joints he recommended, and he replied with a list of 11 places around the state to check out. Seems like a nice guy that has a wealth of knowledge on Virginia barbecue and Brunswick Stew.I like my butt rubbed and my pork pulled.

He mentions that the Q was never the same after Pete White retired and sold the place in the mid-80s. I can vouch for that. Not bad, but not the same.
Anyway, a take on VA BBQ...

In my opinion both- nutrition studies are difficult because the experiments don’t/can’t make everyone’s diet exactly the same. So a lot of outside influences that impact the results.How many times have we heard eggs are good/ then bad/ then good.Fat, carbs, red meat, etc.
