Originally posted by RADDADDYX2. BoBo Lee (Po Pigs) makes some killer hash down here, and he starts with a hog head. I know parts and pieces go in from that point but also am afraid to ask.

Originally posted by Cracker LarryYou don’t see many of them in GA serving hash anymore either. Most of them make a facsimile called Brunswick Stew. It’s sort of like hash but not served with rice.
My neighbor makes the best hash I’ve ever had. He starts with a hog head and I don’t know what all goes into it from there, scared to ask, but it’s some good stuff! And it’s served with rice:smiley:

Originally posted by CooperRiverManDuke’s ,in Ridgeville, is my favorite hash. Not a fan of the BBQ , though. Best BBQ , with no sauce , is Kelly’s on hwy 78. Will try Scott’s in Hemingway, one day.

Sweatmans in Holly Hill, Earl Dukes in Orangeburg, Brown’s In Kingstree, there are your top 3 in the state.
Any of the 3 in orangeburg are pretty good, also Lone Star BBQ in santee was real good the last time I ate there, although it’s been at least 5 years.

Complaining about lack of hash and rice is usually proof that someone has never been outside of SC…

Originally posted by Mississippi River RatTigerfin hit the nail on the head, I had never even heard of hash and rice till I moved to the East coast… Many of Charleston’s “Great” BBQ restaurants are mediocre at best.
I’ve been to Dreamland…its the best BBQ I’ve had outside of Charleston for sure.

Swig and Swine makes a dang good brisket; know that.

I’ve been all over the world and back bucko, but I’m proud to say I’m a born and raised Charlestonian…in fact, if I never leave SC again in this life, I’m fine with that…but I will call you at some point to discuss the Alaska trip in July!

I was born in Roper… Downtown… And the first kid in history to get out of school suspension from Buist Academy… Are you sure you want to challenge my legacy?
Yes, call me this week. I got some intel for you…
I was born in Roper too, but you beat me there by a few years I think. My family waited out Hugo in our house on JI…but I was a public school kid…your parents must have had that northern money.

Ricky, sir. While I like good brisket, that is beef, and beef ain’t bbg. Bbg is not a style of cooking, its not a verb, and it ain’t another word for the grill. Bbq is pork that has been cooked over fire and smoke. Let me know if you want a little taste of heaven next time I go to eastern NC. I’ll bring you some on me.
Point taken, but I only get brisket from there. I guess technically not all smoked meats are BBQ, but its in the same ballpark at least…maybe just in my mind, but I’m a fan of pretty much all smoked meats (insert one liner here). But it is a BBQ place open for less than 20 years that has good food…to me…actually I don’t know if they do or not; I order the same thing every time and am well pleased every time (insert additional one liner here).

Careful, now.
Some of us resemble that remark. 
Catch Low Country Mike with his smoker rollin in the Tractor Supply parking lot 17S Ravenel on weekend afternoons. Good stuff. No hash. Sometimes no sides. But, ribs, pulled pork, and chicken are quite tasty.

And mustard is for baloney and hot dogs.
I know people are going to throw sh** at me for saying this but the Big Joe sliced beef sandwich at Melvins or Bessingers or whatever they call it, is pretty dam good with the mustard sauce ,thick cut fries and the big battered onion ring. One thing for certain is people will be eating some Q this weekend after this thread, remember to send in your pics.
