What's wrong with Carolina BBQ?

Or Bank of America with North Carolina. It is as North Carolinian as non-horrible Barbecue.

BoA got taken over by some NC based super regional but they kept the name.  1st National??  I think I used to have an account with them in DC.

Probably.  But Carolina BBQ still tastes good.

Now you guys got me thinking about BBQ, brisket, burnt ends, bark, etc.  And I was planning on eating something sensible for lunch.

I've never seen a menu in the US with "burnt ends" on it.  First time I'd heard it was when Gups discussed his London BBQ joint. 

Is this a regional item or have I just managed to miss out?

Should be on the menu or mentioned somewhere if you're at a KC-style BBQ joint.

One pet peeve that has been an increasing problem with local BBQ places, food trucks, etc. is when they don't advertise that they put cole slaw on a pulled pork BBQ sandwich and just assume you like it that way.  Bleh.

My wife is from Wilmington and her father's family is always making us eat their regional delicacy and it is pork with vinegar sauce called BBQ :angry:

There may be variations I concede -_-

My favorite place uses a "vinegar mop" on the meat when it's cooking but serves it with a tomato-based sauce.

It's rampant, and I don't always have my guard up :(
