I have noticed over the past few years at NC Pork Council whole hog comps that the sauce on the cookers layouts have had a lot more red color to them than old days. A few of the guys cooking and doing well at these comps are the ones that gave me the Basic sauce recipe I first posted. I have had many compliments on this sauce whenever we do big cooks. If you want an excellent mustard sauce for pulled pork search for Roxy's SC Mustard Sauce. It is awesome!!
Thanks for the tip. This is the 2nd time this week I've seen a recipe for a sauce with a lot of mustard but even more vinegar. I'll have to give it a try.

So, a quick summary. South Carolina = mustard based sauces. North Carolina East tends to ketchup base and West is vinegar based. Dang, I don't even want to ask about peaches....

SC has a couple of different sauce regions, and when they say vinegar & pepper, it means vinegar & pepper.

Most will say that's South Carolina, but it's more Midlands-Low Country. The upstate is a mixture of the NC versions ... but nobody does whole hog.

South Carolina is where Peaches come from. Georgia claims to be the peach state but SC exports more peaches than GA could dream of.

I'm a little confused. OP mentioned bbq but then said something about ribs.

In NC when someone says bbq, its pork (whether whole hog, chopped or pulled).

While there I enjoyed much of what crossed my plate. I understand that there is a distinct difference between eastern and western Carolina style BBQ. What are the key differences and can someone point me toward some representative rub & sauce recipes? I'd like to add this to my tool kit.
South Carolina has the best BBQ in the world. Sauce is vinegar and mustard based.

for NC style, do you guys put some of the vinegar-based sauce on the whole batch of pulled pork, or just let people put their own amount on?

I absolutely HATE mustard, but there are a few places that make a mustard base sause that I can eat. I would say I really love any of them, but I can eat them and that's saying a lot.

In my experiences the sauce is added to the pork as it is chopped, either coarse or fine....
it was much later in my life before I ever heard about pulled pork...

as N8man said, it's usually added as you chop. most of the time there's a bottle on the table if you want to add more.
