A couple years ago I taught a class at a TV station in Greenville, SC. Its not 
far from Charlotte so I flew into Charlotte, rented a car there and drove down. 
On the way I passed about a hundred barbecue places and joked about it at the 
station. They asked it I liked barbecue and when I gave the affirmative they 
said they'd take me for the "best barbecue in South Carolina!"

So we go to this place which is, no joke a former machine shop. Its an old 
Morton building that still smells of machine oil and the barbecue was pretty 
good.

Well of course afterward they ask me if that wasn't the best barbecue I ever 
had and I allowed as how it was pretty good but not the best. They wanted to 
know where the best barbecue I'd ever had was and although I warned them that 
they wouldn't like the answer they still wanted to hear. I told them "Buck's 
Naked BBQ, Freeport, ME" http://www.bucksnaked-bbq.com/ now apparently in 
Windham and Portland as well.

Thats when I went from being "the Yankee instructor" to "That gawd dammed 
Yankee, he don't know a dawd dammed thing about barbecue!"
