The brisket the other night was pretty good... But one bite would taste like thinly sliced steak with sauce, and the next would taste like thinly sliced roast beef with sauce, depending on the distribution of marbling and charring. Pork = BBQ.

I know people in KC that might shoot you for saying that.

All because y'all don't know how to cook a good brisket - the fact that it could possibly taste anything like either steak or roast beef is a clear indication that it is being done tragically wrong - doesn't mean you get to just go changing the meaning of words all willy nilly to compensate for that shortcoming.
Brisket = BBQ.

I mean seriously, good but tasted like steak/roast beef? That'd be like me telling you that the pulled pork I had was pretty good but one bite tasted like a shredded pork chop and the next tasted like ham.
It sounds to me like we do better pulled pork than y'all do brisket. This would certainly explain why y'all get so confused about what BBQ is.

It's hilarious watching everyone get annoyed by this.

It's not something someone from north of the 30th parallel is equipped to understand.
Yeah, that's why they call it brisket instead of BBQ?
TPR also has a cat that he calls a dog and says that you don't know what a dog is even though he still says his dog is a cat.

Traditional barbacoa involves digging a hole in the ground and placing some meat (usually a whole goat) with a pot underneath it, so that the juices can make a hearty broth. It is then covered with maguey leaves and coal and set alight. The cooking process takes a few hours. Olaudah Equiano, an African abolitionist, described this method of roasting alligators among the Mosquito People (Miskito people) on his journeys to Cabo Gracias a Dios in his narrative, The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano.
Original BBQ: goat or alligator. The rest are posers.

There's actually no pork in the plan today.... The wife is rising up against me. I may have to find a late night sandwich, somewhere. A day without barbecue in Memphis is like a lifetime of epicurean... Something... Ignorance in Texas. Whatever. My heart isn't really into picking on tpr too hard because I like him.
