North Carolina is divided into two major styles

West (aka Lexington aka Piedmont) is whole shoulder + a vinegar sauce with a touch of tomato

East (aka Almighty God's BBQ) is whole hog with a vinegar pepper sauce (same thing sans tomato)

Don't rule out whole hogs for western style, either-there are a lot of western-style cooks who like to roast whole hogs.

NC's just a bad place to be a hog huh?

I'm surprised the local Chick-fil-a doesn't have pigs holding signs saying "Eat Moar Chiken"

Well, they seem to be handing out wagyu briskets, and plenty of racks of ribs to the cooks.... so 3 hogs shouldn't have been that expensive. Besides, I would like to see them have ONE item to cook and turn in...... Being able to cook 5 racks of ribs, on 3 separate pits, only to turn in 3 singles is a little lopsided.

In a comp, you are competing against 30, 40 or more teams, so cooking several of the same items is insurance... but these guys are cooking against 2 other teams.
