whatthefuck part II

I am unable to leave comments on most of the blogs I have visited today. I click the "comments" and see my name and information there, but NO PLACE to leave a comment. WTF is that?

For example, I wanted to comment here about barbecue sauce. I am passionate about barbecue sauce and I make MY OWN when I cook. Mine is a combination of mustard and ketchup plus a vinegar-based liquid with enough added ingredients to burn your fucking tongue off when you lick it off a tender pork rib.

Yankee barbecue sauce is SWEET! It's got honey or some other such insufferable, sugary shit in it and I can't stand it. Good barbecue is slow-cooked, well-seasoned and HOT when you eat it. If you don't break out in a sweat, you ain't eating real Southern barbecue.

Dax, my problem is not the difference between red and yellow barbecue sauce. MY problem is the difference between the tongue-dancing hot stuff and that sweet shit yankees call "barbecue sauce" when they don't have a clue. I wouldn't feed that crap to a CAT, let alone adulterate any good meat with it.

But that's just MY humble opinion.

I am puzzled about why I can't leave comments anymore. What causes that?

Yep. I agree. Yankee BBQ sauce sucks. And this statement comes from a dyed in the wool Yankee too.

MB tends to evaluate recipes on "does it taste good" rather than labels or categories. As with chili, there can be hot and VERY tasty or there can be hot and VERY yucko.

Good barbecue sauce should be hot, tangy, and some each of sweet and sour.

Yankee everything is sweet, compared to its southern counterpart. Think yankee cornbread (more like cake, really)...yankee beans (aka Boston baked beans. Molasses and beans. Jesus).

Except sweet tea. No yankee sweet tea, alas.

Must. Have. Recipe.

Love hot and vinegary bbq sauce. Sweet yankee sauce is nasty. You say you can't post this in comments due to a troll you're not allowed to shoot?

Can I shoot him? Please? I need the target practice. Delicate and ladylike .22 or butch .38, both leave a painful hole.

What, some people buy that crap in the grocery strore?

C'mon, give us yankees a LITTLE credit. My BBQ sauce doesn't just burn your tongue, it dissolves the frickin' grill if you leave it on there too long.

I have one candidate for good yankee bbq sauce, Should you ever find yourself in Syracuse, NY, I recommend the Dinosaur BBQ shop to you. The Sauce is not as fiery as our sauces, Rob ( Love that NC Vinegar and Pepper) but it is plenty tangy and certainly not the sweet Kansas City crap you were ragging on. .
