I’ll admit that I didn’t know what BBQ was till I came to North Carolina. I’m sure some of my readers are unfamiliar with it maybe thinking its when folks get together and grill hamburgers and hotdogs. Wrong it is pork cooked over hardwood fire giving it a good smokey flavor and then topped off with a sauce. Some folks are eastern fans ( vinegar based sauce) others are western fans (ketchup based) and then there is South Carolina with the mustard based BBQ. I’ll admit I like them all but my preference is certainly eastern leaning. I travel through Mebane to get to some of the land I lease to hunt on and A &M BBQ is a frequent stop. They have a BBQ that is a cross between eastern and western style and given where they are located in the center of the state it seems like the most diplomatic way to be.

It has been a while since I’ve been in A&M, seeing where we are kind of in between hunting seasons, but turkeys come in next month. So don’t be surprised if you find me in there eating a plate of BBQ or ordering a couple of BBQ sandwiches to take with me to the turkey blind.
