– A feature on Sauceman’s brazilian pitmaster Edgar Simoes (though whats with the question about sauces?)
We are lost in the sauce… The award-winning BBQ at @Saucemans comes from a surprising source, but Brazilian native Edmar Simoes has taken to Lexington-style ‘cue quite well. Now which of the four sauces do you reach for? https://t.co/1Lp1RSVSwo

– The Norfolk Virginian-Pilot food writer Matthew Korfhage waxes poetic on the “some of the best pulled pork in the known universe” two hours away from him in eastern NC – B’s Barbecue and Skylight Inn
Sure, there are other famous eastern-style whole-hog barbecue spots – most notably Wilber’s in neighboring Wayne County, where presidents have dined and owner Wilber Shirley still presides over his restaurant, as he has for more than 50 years.
But a morning drive down winding, wooded roads to B’s and Skylight – hitting both stops along the way – is one of life’s most unmitigated pleasures, one I’ve only just discovered and will repeat many times before I’m through.
– Speaking of The Virginian-Pilot, good find from Robert Moss from that paper from 1935
