Ant Murdering She-Devil/Shelley: Tomato-based bbq sauce is just fancy ketchup* * yes I am allergic and will fight for the vinegar spicy sauce

This is possibly the most offensive fast food item I have ever seen, ShakeShack.

God damn Yankees

Explain the offensiveness please to this Yankee.

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

I would expect a Carolina bbq burger to have pulled pork involved and a tangy vinegar sauce. The lies. THE LIES

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

There’s still vinegar even in the tomato sauce!

Tomato-based bbq sauce is just fancy ketchup* * yes I am allergic and will fight for the vinegar spicy sauce

Thank God I’m listening to music otherwise I might have read aloud and thus heard this blatant and hateful slander against my culture

even tomato based should still be vinegary and almost as loose as a hot sauce, but also I agree!!

The real shitty kind is Texas where it’s like gloppy steak sauce but kinda sweet

My best friend in my 20s and 30s was from South Carolina (she died of a rare kidney disease) and she gave me a banger vinegar type BBQ recipe that I’ve used for years. I also like Kansas City style bbq, too.
