Adopted recipe. Please note that this is not a sweet BBQ sauce at all. If you are looking for a "Memphis" or "Kansas City" style sauce, with tomatoes and molasses or brown sugar, please look elsewhere or you will be disappointed. Eastern North Carolina is where you would find the original inspiration for this. Traditionally, a whole hog is cooked and this style of sauce is used both for the mop and on the side. I really like this stuff, it's a nice change from sweet sauces and makes a dynamite mop, as well. Keeps in a covered container in the fridge almost indefinitely.

1 cup (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

1
Mix together and use to sauce pulled pork.

I ALWAYS make this sauce when I make pulled pork. My son and I prefer it to the molasses based ones! I usually add a touch more brown sugar than is called for, and I like to sprinkle some red pepper flakes in as well. I have been using this recipe for years along with Mean Chef's Pulled Pork recipe, and cannot believe I never reviewed it before! 5 stars all the way!

Simply fabulous with pulled pork. Made my own buns "soft As Wonder" White Bread, coleslaw from Dinosaur BBQ, and Crock Pot Pulled Pork. Can't get better than this! Love it! I buttered the buns and grilled them before topping them with pork and slaw per Chef #277594. Thanks much for posting this!

Delicious. An absolute must with pulled pork. The vinegar really enhances the sweetness of the pork, and the pepper adds a good hint of heat. I think a previous reviewer who felt it was too strong simply used too much of it... it should be applied judiciously, just enought to moisten the meat and flavor it, not poured on like a typical red barbecue sauce.

This sauce is one of the three I made to go with your pulled pork. It was good, but a little too vinegary for our tastes. I'm glad we tried it but will probably stick to the molasses bbq sauce next time. We felt it took away from the flavours of the rub and the pork and kinda took our breath away with the vinegar. Thanks for the experience, it was worth trying!!
