Thank you for the ride, the escape, the travel ANTHONY......You took me to places, I wouldn't have ordinarily visited. The aromas, the beauty, the uniqueness, I'll never forget. Most importantly, you graced me with cultures of people from all over the world. My experiences has expounded to "Parts Unknown!!!!!!!! A toast to you Anthony...........R.I.P!!!!!!!!!!!!
Took his passing really hard. It surprised me, how I responded. Something about the light and the dark that was in him...that made him complicated and interesting. He loved fine food and dining, yet hated the pretentiousness of it at the same time. He was an unashamed Jersey guy too. I appreciated that after living there for awhile. Love you Tony. Wish you could have made another choice for your daughter's sake. For us dad's, nothing is better than a daughter. They are precious!
Anthony realized the world around him had turned to shit and getting old really sucks... Take a real look and you will see it... If you got kids though it is extremely selfish...
And it should be noted Sean Brock, one of the greatest (and most important) chefs in the world, was sharing this meal with Bourdain, and very likely he was the guy who presented Rodney Scott to AB to begin with.
Absolutely heartbreaking. I just wish he loved himself as much as so many others did. No matter how hard it might get, things can always get better. There’s nothing wrong with asking for help when you’re in a dark place in life
Watching here in 2020...still miss you Anthony,you opened up avenues to the world for so many. I dont know what demons you were dealing with,but I hope you have found peace my brother. You will be remembered as daring,innovative, intriguing personality,and we will surely miss your presence in our futures. Rest in peace,tony... we will remember you!!!
I’m literally watching this while laying in bed and eating some of Scott’s BBQ right now. It’s delicious stuff. And it’s true that most of SC is all about mustard sauce and this is a vinegar sauce. Having grown up with the vinegar based this is right up my alley.
Scott's is legendary around here. I'm about a hour away,so I grab some anytime I pass through. And when I do,there is a small list of friends that I have to call and get a pound or two for,...if I dont I get the stink-eye for a while. "You went to Scott's and didn't call me?....that's a party foul man...."...
We used to cook one like this for the Fourth of July when I was a kid. I remember finally being old enough to get up at midnight with the men and then being able to shovel coals from the burn barrel to under the hog. It was a right of passage.
There's no denying that Rodney's piggy looked very, very tasty. Barbecue is an extremely polarizing branch of cuisine, for simple reasons. 1) There are many different styles and processes, different woods, rubs, sauces, smoking and cooking procedures. And different animals. 2) It takes a loooong ass time. The longer it takes to prepare food, the more work is involved and by extension, the more love and care is involved. In the end, barbecue, like all art or things of beauty, comes down to personal taste. In saying my own favourite I'm not dissing other styles. It's not a binary choice. But if I were presented with all the styles of American barbecue and told I could eat only one dish from one style, I'd go for Hill Country Texas brisket. I'm salivating just thinking about it.
Unless you lived in the south and had some of the best barbecue in the USA, you don't know what you are missing or talking about. So all you haters out there that are putting down this video, why are you looking at it instead of volunteering for your local charity? You have no life, can't get your life together, complaining about others. Really tired of your Life, find out what you want then stop your rant.
Scott's barbecue is known throughout the state. It's not a fancy place rather tucked into the depths of Williamsburg county, SC. When you come to the one intersection in the town, Scott's is the right there waiting for your business. If you don't know the name, you will drive right by it without a clue that this is one of the oldest and most famous eateries in the country.
You don't find the best bites of barbecue in fancy restaurants. My favorite joints in Kansas City are located in a diner and a repurposed gas station. The former for burnt ends, the latter was showcased on No Reservations and has a very high standard all around.
Not really a wait time or anything,hes usually cranking it out all day long...havent checked his day to day open times,..but check it,he might be closed on mondays.
I see this and I think, would Ramsay eat this? Would he even get it? All I see is his haute cuisine food and the perfection of certain methods he expects
See This is why I think BBQ is all for show. Why go the whole 9 yards with the pig and serve it with wonder bread? Like you have the time, Its cheeper than buying it and you can make it exactly how you want it, hell, make it like wonder bread. like. if its on wonder bread why not just slow roast it in an oven with some liquid smoke.
Scott's is overrated... there's much better pork BBQ in Charleston. Scott is renowned more for his history and other political issues, rather than the quality of the food, IMO.
