Southern pulled-pork barbecue. As simple as that! When the heat goes up here in metro Boston, I begin to crave two things – iced tea (which I make at home using a special recipe) and a pulled-pork sandwich. The sandwich necessitates a road trip to Blue Ribbon Barbecue in Arlington, MA. When I moved to New England from North Carolina in 1985 I despaired of leaving bluegrass music, grits and biscuits, and barbecue. I was beyond ecstatic to discover that these delicacies could be found in the Northeast, and I could not remain here without them. As for that iced tea? Maybe I’ll share my recipe one day…
