Carol of the Q ✧

[haden2846]

Thanks for the info Shug. Hopefully will wander down that road not too long from now. Ordered Butt Rub via Amazon (off last years "Carol". I collect cookers and smokers cuz I like to eat! Have a great 2012 and keep us smilin.

[haden2846]

I live in the Carolinas. Who makes your cooker?

Haden+

[shugemery]

@haden2846 A feller names Harley in Lucia, NC on old Hwy 16. Usually has one out on the side of the road near the fire station.

[TheBlackDog73]

Mr. Shug nice Q. Smoking a turkey right now. Low and slow!

[shugemery]

@TheBlackDog73 Oh yeah....truth be spoken. Enjoy it with friends and family.

[survivalbill1]

My invite must have gotten lost in the mail again chug...

[shugemery]

@survivalbill1 I usePony Express....

[DustinSilver]

What ide give for some bbq like that. Can I be your neighbor? Awesome vid shug.

[shugemery]

@DustinSilver Thankee feller.

[CiaranRooney125]

Oh boy... i'm drolling, Shug! Whooooo BUDDDDYYYY!!!

[shugemery]

@CiaranRooney125 Had Irish shortbread as well!

[drkilcourse]

I would do horrible unspeakable things for a bit of that bark!

[EMANx32x]

love the vid. You are always good for a laugh. get it up. WHOOOO BUDDY!!!!

[guyfihi]

Well, I'm going to look for the Carolina style chopped pork here in Sacramento because I want to put some south in my mouth even though I grew up in Upstate New York. Like that Mando Christmas music. Man, you got every one doing Karl--too funny.

[TheNfields260]

I hate I missed the bbq parrty Shug. 17 days and counting until we come to the Piney Woods!

[Docwaters42]

I lived in North Carolina for 4 years. Their BBQ was inferior to pulled pork in other parts of the South. The NC BBQ is chopped fine and slaw is added. However, I did like most of NC and NC State University in particular. But, as they say, "there is no accounting for taste."

[shugemery]

@Docwaters42 I gotta have me some slaw on mine! But...I love Ga bbq, SC bbq, AL bbq, TN bbq so on and so forth ad-nfinitum.

[Docwaters42]

@shugemery Well, any BBQ is better than no BBQ. Where I live now in the Northern Rockies it is no BBQ.

[guyfihi]

Shug, is this the same as pulled pork sandwiches in restaurants? I can only imagine what your neighborhood must smell like when you are barbequing.

[shugemery]

@guyfihi Oh God no....backyard BBQ trumps restaurants BBQ anytime!!!!!!

Neighbors come by to chat and hope for a bite.

[Norskand67]

I could smell that good stuff all the way up here in Duluth. :)

[shugemery]

@Norskand67 Could be the paper mill!!!! Cool...thanks.

[patience4gw]

Shug... I lived all my life in Carolina and would hire you to come to my house anyday!!!!  Looks awesome!

[shugemery]

@patience4gw I like to cook the Q I was raised on. Dad would often take us out for a "BBQ"...that meant sandwich with slaw on a white bun.

[GeezerDust]

could not stop my mouth from watering watching that.

[shugemery]

@GeezerDust I love it!

[larrylynn123]

Yuuuummmmmm....what would it take to get some of that pork to fly out to Phoenix?

[shugemery]

@larrylynn123 It has done flown down our gullets!!!!!

[jezzafox]

Awesome video, great to see how much fun you had making it. Good to know that that piggy wiggy did not lay down its life in vain.

In French pig is 'cochon'

[shugemery]

@jezzafox I had a French brain fry. Thankee.

[hoosierarcher]

Domestic pig is cauchon en Frenche. Wild boar is sanglier. And barbeque is a verb not a noun but I know you'll take that procinally. H.A.

[shugemery]

@hoosierarcher Salut))))

[cottonwoodscamp]

That was evil, you know how hungry I am now.

[CdnLifeguard71]

Danm that looks good. Not the right thing to watch while eating lunch at work. Shed a bit of a tear into my chicken and salad.

Nate

[emjackdad]

Does a NC boy proud to see the proper cooking of a pig! I was afraid for your guests the way you were attacking that first batch of chopped BBQ! Thought they might go way hawngry! Love your videos, Shug. Hope to meet you at a hang in the Piney Forest someday!

[yahoodlums]

Man, I can smell that smokey goodness from here... and I'm in Hong Kong. Nice work, Shugster.

[shugemery]

@yahoodlums The pig smoke wafts very far I see. Thanks.

[TheOutdoordude]

WoooBuddy! That looks amazing! Think I might get me some Bridges BBQ today. My gut approves!

[shugemery]

@TheOutdoordude Alston or Red's? Both terrific. Shelby...I used to live there. We did Alstons the most.

[Highlannderr35]

Great times !!! Good to see y'all doing fine. The Happiest of Holidays to ya Bud!

Merry Christmass and God Bless ya!

[shugemery]

@Highlannderr35 A Merry and a Jolly to ya'll as well.

[Sivart1977]

Merry Christmas to you n yern' 

[shugemery]

@Sivart1977 And to you and yours!

[RallohE]

HOT DANG it was worth waiting to git my VPN operational and see that sweet Q from the master! I'm drooling on my computer my friend!

[shugemery]

@RallohE Your gonna short your link to the USA out iff'n you don't tuck that lower lip in))))

[eflat7]

Looking good! BBQ looks tasty too! Ha j/k!

[shugemery]

@eflat7 BBq, vinegar sauce, red bbq slaw, ribs and red velvet cake. And we jammed until 2:30AM. Too much, too much fun.

[Cphobes]

Don't get that BBQ smell deep in the down vest, you'll have Bears visiting you year round.

Where's the Pork Brains and milk gravy?!?! :)

[shugemery]

@Cphobes True....it smells of all kinda smoke. In the wash with it.

[hardrockcharlie1]

Dang Shug, you sure know how to make a man hungry!!! I'm drooling on my shirt!!!

[shugemery]

@hardrockcharlie1 That is a nice mental picture! Haaaa. Thanks

[223rocks]

Dude you are makin me homesick. Killin me.

[shugemery]

@223rocks A sweet smoky way to die though...

[scdave100]

I'm a South Carolina boy and you had me at vinegar sauce!

[shugemery]

@scdave100 Righto...my Dad is from Enoree.

[scdave100]

@shugemery Cool!

[trenttyre]

there is a bbq joint here in Atlanta that uses the tag line of "Put Some South in You're Mouth" haha

[shugemery]

@trenttyre I think I musta been there.

[TNCrawlers]

What kind of smoker is that?

[shugemery]

@TNCrawlers Homebuilt by a feller in Lucia, NC named Harley.

[TheTonyjara]

my mouth is running like a river....how them ribs!

[shugemery]

@TheTonyjara Let it flow....

[mediamst]

That looks awesome. Great food and party

[shugemery]

@mediamst It sure was...still getting over it and cleaning up!

[aboyd45]

I have got to fire up the smoker in the next week or two and smoke a butt or 3!! Yum, Yum good!!!!

[shugemery]

@aboyd45 Don't forget to invite friends and tell them to bring cake and pie!

[mrriprock2]

So, I was actually thawing out a ribeye to eat while watching the game today, but just threw that in the fridge and drove around the corner to my local BBQ restaurant and got me some Carolina BBQ. Not Kidding. Thanks Shug, didn't feel like cooking anyways...Dash

[shugemery]

@mrriprock2 Now that is a touching comment...the power and allure of the Q.

[medicjimr]

Glad you don't joke with the guest when they eat hate to see them choke when they start laughing good stuff shug

[shugemery]

@medicjimr Thankee Jim.

[nedeljkomostar]

whoooooooooo budddyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

some good looking meat there yahooooooooooooo :D

[shugemery]

@nedeljkomostar Too true....it was a MeatFest

[ErlefromVa]

That Carolina Classic BBQ pit is smokin my friend! Ribs and pulled pork...can't get any better then that!

[shugemery]

@ErlefromVa Truth spoken! Thankee.

[john48737]

God it looks like good eating better that a poptart.

[john48737]

@john48737 whoo buddy

[shugemery]

@john48737 They need a PorkTart!

[seanmulhall]

Thats the best looking BBQ meat I've ever seen.

[shugemery]

@seanmulhall I gotta say...it was a very good batch. I think singing to it helps.! Just needed some mushy peas.

[MrClean417]

Sure, post it the day after. Cuzz you KNOW I could get there from here in 4 or 5 hours yea. All I'd have to do is go down to the local Civy Airport, steel me a twin Beech and point it east. Wise planning on your part. We're going to have meat pie here. You make some sort of Meatloafish pie crust and fill it with creamy rich Macaroni n Cheese or Marinara, and bake that puppy up. It comes with it's own set of paddles for the dephib machine. U huh, that's right, cuzz Mrs. C cares.

Yummy

[shugemery]

@MrClean417 That does sound mighty dang good.....

Funny stuff on the defib...

[TrailTweaker]

Doing us NC boys proud Shug. Next time your back in the foothills in wnc if you get a chance go to Smoky QUES in Marion NC , it is one of my favs. Merry Christmas and Happy Hanging.

[shugemery]

@TrailTweaker I swear I think I have been there on the way home from the Gorge!

[TrekkingSpirit]

Man if I ever make it up to yer neck-a-the-woods I am coming for dinner!!!! Looks great Shug, makes my mouth water :)

[shugemery]

@TrekkingSpirit Breakfast too!

[MichiganTNP]

its good to see we are not the only ones that have parties outside in the winter.

[shugemery]

@MichiganTNP We always tell folks to come prepared. Some stay indoors but they lose out on a bunch of fun))))

[huguenot67]

Porcine porn!!!! Whoooooooo Buddy!!! Where's my slaw?

[shugemery]

@huguenot67 Oh....I made a bunch of BBQ red slaw!!!!

[Dancerpro1]

Did you make your Q from an old heating oil tank? If so great reuse for the same purpose - gettin' and keepin' your butts warm.

[shugemery]

@Dancerpro1 It is but I did not make it. Harley in NC did. I love it and the re-use is a fine point.

[adaman04]

Love these Shug cookin' vids. Right up there with the musical classic "Bad Byron's Butt Rub, Bad Byron's Butt Rub".

Haven't had much of an appetite this week, but right now I'd like to have some bbq!

Happy Holi-Wooo Buddies!

[shugemery]

@adaman04 Thanks....this is my Meat Sequel. Glad that appetite is coming back. Leave it to BBQ.

[RitchiePowell]

Wanna be there!! Onaka suita!

[shugemery]

@RitchiePowell Yoku taberu.....Oishī ne

[leetshots]

that pork looked good enough to rub on my nipples. can i have the piece that went on the floor during the chopping!?

[shugemery]

@leetshots Good image....I think⚠ I actually picked that piece up and ate it!

[shugemery]

@LinkerWoodcraft I had a grande tete fart!

[CampfireTalk]

I enjoyed the video you did last year like this. BBQ, Christmas songs & Shug who knew that was the magic combination : )

That was mighty fine brother

[shugemery]

@CampfireTalk What a night of chowing down and jammin' and lolly-gagging with comfortable friends. It was sweet and lingers.

[jdmredteg]

No doubt about it, ol' Shug knows how to BBQ and throw a party!

[shugemery]

@jdmredteg If we don't have a party we never see our friends. I would rather throw a party than go to a party!

[007vauxhall]

Now thats how to cook pork.....WOW ! Looked great.....mouth still watering here! Cheer Shug! :-))

[shugemery]

@007vauxhall The only way....and cook for many!

[hobbieslistentomusic]

Lol Shug can I come join you well done

[shugemery]

@hobbieslistentomusic I give everyone a pork-pack to tote home with them....so we are porkless.

[MrHatManS]

We never get a BBQ like that in the UK.

[shugemery]

@MrHatManS But...you do have jellied eels and mushy peas!

[johniac7078]

This is so close to the meat musical I have been longing for.....I shall make a meat extravaganza for the Patriots game today.....

[shugemery]

@johniac7078 To a great win and fine carne festival. MEAT))))

[KevinLizAndLife]

Yum : ) Love Me Some Ribs ^v^

[shugemery]

@KevinLizAndLife We are still eating the weasel-sack stash.

[marius357]

so glad i live in NC to enjoy this everyday if i want hehe

[shugemery]

@marius357 I miss living there just because of that reason. You are a lucky feller.

[Nebulax123]

Shug you are pure evil on my wallet now I have to run over to Fat Matts Rib Shack or Old Hickory House and get some ribs.(and slaw and potato salad and pecan pie and onion rings oh well it is supposed to be warm next week no need to really pay the Georgia Power bill)

[shugemery]

@Nebulax123 M-m-m-m-m....sounds mighty fine.

[mattpkp]

any secret recipes?

[shugemery]

@mattpkp No....just cook slow and low. No rush.

[wonderingson]

as an alabamyen relocated to spain I can tell you there is nothing i miss more than good barbque. god bless you for making this video.

[shugemery]

@wonderingson I hope it was a good momento.

[BCkayakcamper]

Do your neighbors know you? Or do they think you're the crazy guy that talks to himself in many different accents in his back yard (without knowing you're a YouTube sensation)? You wanna ship me some of that pork? Looked amazing!!!!

[shugemery]

@BCkayakcamper Oh, they know. I always invite them. Sometimes they are scared.

[oregonmikes]

Damn... I hope Santa fills my stocking with BBQ pork!

[shugemery]

@oregonmikes A stocking filled with pig-fat.....whooooo buddy!

[MrStevewest1978]

i know what im asking santa for this year. BBQ pit

[shugemery]

@MrStevewest1978 A gift that adds to your life for sure.

[MrStevewest1978]

dam thats a bad ass BBQ pit

[shugemery]

@MrStevewest1978 I so concur. Truth!

[QuercusLaevis]

Sir Shug, I have to clarify this to all the youtubies, that is North Carolina BBQ. Very different from South Carolina BBQ which is mustard based, and far better I might add. It's kind of a topic of pride down hea in da south. Great video, even though it's NC BBQ (wink)

[shugemery]

@QuercusLaevis I love me a SC style mustard sauce sandwich...as much as a NC vinegar. I live in two worlds. I did put some Maurice's sauce on my sandwich so we are cool.

[QuercusLaevis]

@shugemery I love them both, I just have some SOUTH Carolina Pride. Whooo Bo.

[Ggreenvideos]

Great lookin' meat man :o) That BBQ rocks!

[shugemery]

@Ggreenvideos If we don't throw a bash from time to time we never see our friends.

[Ggreenvideos]

@shugemery Haha! Well food like that will always bring them ;o) Or good whiskey :o)

[OutdoorChautauqua]

Wish I was there ....... Love the pig butt !!!!!

[shugemery]

@OutdoorChautauqua Oh....I so love it!

[spence0324]

Looks like some GOOD TIMES! Ize HUNGRY NOW.

[shugemery]

@spence0324 I had a rib for first breakfast today!

[d37fan]

I have a whole shoulder/picnic going right now for lunch tomorrow. Today was a piggy day. That sauce looks amazing.

[shugemery]

@d37fan I love it!!!!! Meat-Fest.

[hect0rplasmic]

It's 10:30 pm and I'm salivating after watching this video. Or is that just drooling from old age? Does it matter? Glglgggglgggg...

[shugemery]

@hect0rplasmic Maybe a combo of both!

[JSD3530]

Sounds like a great party and the meat looks absolutely succulent!! Have fun.Great vid!!!

[shugemery]

@JSD3530 Succulent for sure....I was happy with this batch.

[GopanBushcraft]

man that's looks like good eating!!

[shugemery]

@GopanBushcraft Still eating it))))

[JSD3530]

Here in Ga, We cook pork in many,many ways. This is the first time I have ever heard it being put to Christmas Carols. Maybe its because we start downing beer before we actually light the fire. Lol JK.

[shugemery]

@JSD3530 I croon the meat.....it is all good.

[shugemery]

@Redfoxxbushcraft --- Cheers

[1jbunceiii]

I licked my computer screen trying to get a taste......

[Redfoxxbushcraft]

[shugemery]

@NohbdyThere and I some good TX brisket.

[NohbdyThere]

[BCoutdoorsurvival]

[shugemery]

@BCoutdoorsurvival A treasured cooker that. Got it in NC.

[tmaloney71]

[shugemery]

@tmaloney71 Lousy golfer and can't do math or knit!

[bullthrush]

[shugemery]

@bullthrush I gotta google him.....
