So can a redneck live in PA? I like BBQ, beans, corn bread and greens
too.


The real test of your redneckese though comes with, do you like your BBQ
"chopped" or "pulled"? ;-) (he says, patting his tummy that is still
full of
BBQ from the lunch buffet at the local BBQ & fish house...umm, with some
hushpuppies and sweet tea too LOL!)


What difference does it make? If I can't get either ... why bother to
draw the
fine lines?

Coz I wuz born here, and pulled pig *almost* borders on yankeeism. ;-) It's
chopped for me, or I move on to the next buffet station....spicey, vinegary,
makes no matter, it just has to be chopped. And if in a sammy, it has to be
dressed with slaw. There are no substitutes...


(and what happened to the "sir" respect? gloating doesn't suit you,
sim!)

man, fried catfish ...

Hey, it's been a long week, and them 'puppies smelled good from the road. I
just had to, cause they wuz dressed like they wanted it, lol. And how did
you know I had catfish too? That *sir*, was scary good guess (they also had
flounder and whiting)...and my tea, you guessed it, was served to me in a
Mason Jar with a handle on it. Welcome to the South, is all I can say. ;-)


... bite me! $



....and y'all don't forget the brunswick stew, blackeyed beans and cornbread
with a big ol' slice of vidalia onion -- mmmm mmmmmm mmmmmmmm!!!

Aside from that, yeah, I figure so. Guy I used to work with lives
just a few miles south of the NY border (near Binghamton), and he
can pass for the better kind of redneck w/ no problem.

You don't have to like greens, btw. I detest 'em, all kinds.

(* if you answered anything but pork, you fail. A true southern
redneck knows BBQ means cooking a pig.)

Pork, everyone knows, chickens gets fried.

Chopped... and it's a fish CAMP, not a fish house. But, you got the rest of
it right.

Sure. I know rednecks from the state of NY (but not NYC), and even
know one from Sacremento CA.
Uh... that's Sacramento, which is full of rednecks. I live in extreme
Northern California, and there are just as many rednecks here as when I was
growing up in NC.

Sliced is too dense.

When I worked as a curb hop at the Barbecue Center in Lexington, NC, Boston
(Buuuhz-ton) types would pull in and order a "minced bahbee-q." We laughed
our asses off.
