Yep, born and raised a Connecticut Yankee although my stomach and taste buds hail from the South. I lived in Georgia for a couple of years where I discovered what was missing in my life - slow-cooked pig meat. Evidently, good 'cue was programmed into my genetic code - my forebears settled in eastern Tennessee in 1780 and my GGGrandfather was in the 61st TN Infantry. While I'm certain that mine can't hold a candle to any of y'all's, I did learn to make tolerable barbecue while in the South and my friends and family up here will do tricks to get me to cook it for them. Vinegar and pepper rules!
Just sign me,
Yankee Swine
