Never tried it but I did try Vinegar and that’s just about what it was, Vinegar and brother it really soaks into the meat.
Nasty...Nasty...
I used to eat at a great one in Dothan, AL. It has gone down so I won’t mention it’s name.
They cooked it over a very large pit. I don’t think they put anything on it while it cooked but I could be wrong. They had maybe 5 different sauces on each table.
My favorite was sort of a combo of cole slaw and relish.
