It’s honestly two fold:
One, Carolina has its own specific burger style involving chili and onions so for those in the know this is misleading
Two, and most importantly, Carolina bbq is exclusive pork NOT beef and there should be nothing sweet about the sauce at all.
This is a monstrosity!
It would be like a California based chain selling a “Philly cheesesteak style” burger that was a turkey patty with avocado and grilled onions and pepper
A vinegar sauce? Is the skyline ready for such a hyper-specific Discourse?
I claim western NC roots, my BBQ sauce boasts a tomato base and I’ll hear no slander against it
1) no, we are NOT prepared for that discourse
2) I knew nothing about BBQ until my very first Fall Fest when some local Chapel Hill place was handing out free sandwiches on South Rd. I took a bite and it was the best thing I'd ever tasted so I gotta go team vinegar on this one sorry
