The thing that suprised me the most is that the guy talks to a therapist. If you have work in the kitchen, you would know how rare keeping up with mental health is hard. Glad to see it.

As a North Carolinian living in Texas now, it's nice to see someone in my new state not dismissing whole hog as "not real bbq" and giving it the respect it deserves. It looks really good and I'm glad that a style that's actually dying out at home is finding new life elsewhere.

Man, this dude is SO dialed in to every single detail of his passion - and is seemingly able to articulate it clearly and matter-of-factly. That is the sign of a true master.

As a Mexican American from south Texas we have been doing this for as long as i know. My perants are from mexico so no part of a hog goes to waste. Lol

Hey Leonard, my family has been Carolina Pit Masters for since the 30's. We're also Brunswick Stew masters. You can crisp up problem areas or the whole hog quickly with a hand-mop or spray bottle of Lemon Juice. This method works for both Eastern and Western Carolina BBQ as well as whole Goat. I admire your pit passion. Cheers!!

Nice to see Houston upping the game on their bbq. 10 years ago Houston was basically a wasteland of chain restaurants and you had to drive a couple of hours to find anything decent.

Love this guys mentality and the respect he has for other styles of bbq. Being from Texas I never understood the misconception that we’re just brisket crazy and that’s it. We love our brisket but we love pork just as much we’re just known more for beef. We love the art of bbqing in general.

As a South Carolina mountain boy living in Texas, I’m stoked to see the love and passion put into pork BBQ. Carolinas were the birthplace of BBQ and I love seeing it get the respect it deserves.

I was raised on Alabama pulled pork/ whole hog bbq and it’s some of the best that I’ve ever had. I’ll I know is if your driving on a US or old country highway and you see what looks like a run down shack out in the middle of no where and it says bbq out front. It’s more than likely the best bbq you’ve ever had.

I love that he has showed respect to Louie Mueller's my all time favorite BBQ. He has the correct mentality all around to this art.

Being a Carolina guy I love that you respect our ways of cooking whole hog bbq. Well done guys!

I'm thoroughly impressed by the welding an ingenuity of the hog cooker. Kudos to whoever made that.

Perfect BBQ is a journey, not a destination. I'm partial to brisket because that's what I grew up eating, but the folks in Carolina know pork just as well as Texans know beef. I'm looking forward to trying some of this, with my brisket and sausage!

Carolina native... it makes my heart happy to hear a texas BBQ master tell the world that carolina vinegar whole hog should be right at the top with texas brisket. We already knew that and were glad to share it with you! A huge chunk of NC economy is based on it! That's a bad ass cooker too. I'm gonna have to take a closer look at that thing one day
