This was my first time ever making pulled pork and thanks to your sauce, it was a success! Easy, tasty and definitely a keeper.

This was excellent. Served it with Sarge's EZ Pulled Pork from this site. Great flavor! I did scale back the recipe considerably because I was only making it for my family of 4. I also cut back on the cayenne and red pepper so my kids would eat it.

Exceptional ! This recipe gets rave reviews every time we do pulled pork BBQ! Friends who grew up in NC love it ..... and for those who're monitoring certain ingredients for diets - - it's gluten free, and I substitute Splenda Brown Sugar for those watching sugar intake. A real winner !

Wow! Delicious. I cooked the heck out of a pork roast in the crockpot with a little chicken broth, then shredded it and soaked it in this sauce. I halved the recipe because it really makes a lot. Served it with cole slaw on top on a kaiser roll. Don't know if this is the proper southern way to enjoy it (I'm from New Jersey), but man was it good. Have made it several times now and it always turns out perfect. Great to serve at a cookout.

Definately had the NC vinegar flavor. The spicyness got in the way a little bit. I would suggest cutting back if you don't like your sauce super hot.

Absolutely delicious. It packs a wollop, but man is it good on pork. Kudos to you Lori.

Wow! Just like the barbeque we'd get when we'd visit my nana and grandaddy in Wilmington... I was afraid it would be too spicey, but no, it was perfect. Thank you so much!!!

The best!

My family is from Eastern North Carolina (Smithfield N.C.), and this recipe is right on time. Sometimes we leave out the brown sugar, and use beer for a different kick. This mop sauce is used for roasting the pig, for chopped BBQ. I use it when grilling chops, ribs or a pork shoulder which I grilled a couple a days ago. Very good, give it a try. (TIP!!!! if you really want that eastern North Carolina taste add a little hickory or oak wood to your coals.

Wow! This was perfect! About 3 years ago, I had been to a family reunion in NC where there was a pig roast, and they served the pork with a delicious spicy vinegar dressing that I'd never tried before. Since then, I've had a craving for this sauce. I scaled the sauce by half and made last night. Today, I put a half picnic in my slow cooker all day while I was at work. I added about 1/4 cup of the sauce over the pork while cooking. After draining and shredding the pork, I mixed about 3/4 of the remainder of the sauce with the shredded pork. I served with some homemade cole slaw, homemade corn bread and baked beans and it was just great! Thanks so much. My search for a great Carolina BBQ recipe is over. Thanks so much!!

I AM A NORTHERNER, WHO LIVES WITH A SOUTHERNER. HE DIDN'T THINK I COULD DO IT. BUT WITH YOUR HELP I MADE A GREAT SAUCE, FOR OUR PIG PICKING. THANKS FOR HELPING ME OUT. IT WAS PERFECT!

I lived in NC for years & love the BBQ there. This sauce is as close as I have come to the taste of "Carolina BBQ". Love it.

My husband LOVED this. We lived in Eastern NC for 5 years. Since we've left, this is definitely the closest we've ever been to getting the "real thing". Thanks.

Thanks for the "real" Carolina BBQ sauce recipe. A friend makes this all the time, but says the recipe is an old family secret.

Used this sauce on pork BBQ and it was great! Very spicy and tangy, but I like it like that and so did 20 guys! Next time I might add a bit more brown sugar and go a little lighter on the vinegar.

This is not your typical bbq sauce, it's tangy yet spicy. It is great on bbq pork roast. I grill alot and i tried it on my pork.... everybody raved over it

I made this sauce and let it sit for 24 hrs. Then I submerged a pork tenderloin in it for another 24 hrs in the refrigerator.I baked the pork with a small amount of sauce poured over it for 3 hrs at 325 degrees, covered, basting once an hr. Then I shredded the meat with 2 forks and poured the rest of the sauce over it, turned off the oven and when it was time to eat (about 1 1/2 hrs later)popped it on buns and ate heartily. Loved it! Nice & spicy!
