The Barbecue Song: Listen, Laugh, and Learn BBQ Fans
In my research to discover the most popular barbecue type in Orlando and the state of Florida, I came across this video that is both funny and educational. And, just for the record, I disagree wholeheartedly about Florida...

Very cool song! I just had some Alabama style barbecue (in VA) a few days ago and tried some of that white sauce. Tasted just like ranch dressing. The restaurant recommended that it be eaten with ribs with more traditional sauces with other meats.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of BBQ, what is the proper spelling of the word? The dictionary that comes with windows computers has it as barbecue, but everyone else I've talked to agrees that it should be barbeque with a q instead of a c.
I really haven't encountered anything in Orlando that is distinctly southern. Most everyone is from someplace else. To experience the South, you have to travel north.
ReplyDeleteWatch me eat,
ReplyDeleteI've never tried the white barb-b-que sauce. Doesn't appeal to me at all. But I do like cole slaw on a bbq sandwich, so maybe it's somewhat similar?
As for the "proper" spelling of barbecue, I think it's really up to the establishment and how much room they have on their signage!
I grew up on sweet, tomato based sauce, but as an adult, I'm leaning toward a vinegar-based sauce, and I love a Memphis dry rub.
what would you say is the best bbq in orlando? i know sonny's was founded in gainesville but its a chain now so they dont count lol
ReplyDeleteTasty Chomps,
ReplyDeleteVery hard to pick the best bbq in Orlando. Some places have great ribs, but so-so pulled pork, etc. I may just have to do a poll soon and get to the bottom of it once and for all.
What's your favorite?
i am still on the search for really good Q! hopefully you can let us know what is good!
ReplyDeletewas I the only one that noticed that they used a picture of california for Florida??
