Cut/Chop/Cook

Here is the essence of American barbecue. Scott's Bar-B-Que in Hemingway, SC is nothing less than a national treasure. The method of cooking barbecue employed at Scott's goes all the way back to the very beginnings of American history even to the first successful English colony in the New World: Virginia. A whole hog is slow roasted over wood coals and mopped with a peppery vinegar based basting liquid and served with love and care. That, my friends, is Americana in its purist form!
