I can't remember Maurice's last name, but his BBQ store is called Piggy
Park. He had flyers in his store that slaves were happy with their lot,
until them damn Yankees had to go emancipate them. I didn't much like
SC bbq sauce, probably because we lived in NC for several years and
considered our southern neighbor a bit primitive.

I used to work at the medical school around the corner from Sonny
Bryan's original shack. (Let's face it, Sonny must have paid the
building inspectors in brisket to keep that from being razed.) I
actually preferred Anderson's, which was/is? right across Harry Hines
Blvd from the med school. They were brave enough to serve pulled pork
in the early 90's.
