Rounding up the best BBQ in North Carolina

A word (or two) about root beer

I have made this recipe several times since filming this, and have discovered an important fact: quality matters.  Normally I select a national well-known brand as the ingredient for this recipe, and it works well.  Recently I noticed that my grocer started carrying some local and regional micro brewed root beers.  Looking them over I found that they were still using sugar over high fructose corn syrup.  Anyone who remembers Coke before the “new Coke” faux pas knows that there is a huge difference.  It improves the flavor of this dish conciderably.  So when you try this recipe out, do yourself a favor and read a few labels.  You will be happy you did.  Oh and pick up a few bottles to have with your bbq, you won’t regret it
