Because you pull the pork apart after it is cooked. If done properly it will just fall apart.

One critique is that this appears to be a tomato based sauce.

Good Christian folk know BBQ pork is supposed to be a mustard based concoction.

The stretch of South Carolina from roughly Columbia to Charleston is known as “the Mustard Belt.” The region’s distinctive mustard-based sauce originated with German settlers in the 18th century, and it’s applied liberally to whole hog ’cue smoked over open wood pits. All-you-can-eat buffets are popular in these parts, with many trays full of chopped pork and dozens of Southern sides. Columbia’s Little Pigs BBQ smokes a juicy combo of shoulders and hams, while Shealy’s BBQ in Batesburg offers an enormous buffet with smoked pork, fried chicken and side dishes galore. (Source)

I can attest to the quality of the vittles from both of the above establishments.

I've heard of that. I'll have to try it.

Thank YOU and EVERYONE else on the thread who provided some kind of explanation.

Today is already a success as I have learned something new.
