Hey everyone, Bryan here. Where's your favorite barbecue joint? I'm already planning my next trip, and I can never have too many barbecue recommendations. And let me know what to order when I'm there!
This looked like an amazing trip! You're truly living the dream on this series.
Fat Matt's Rib Shack in Atlanta, GA. All things southern BBQ but the ribs are the star. It's always packed, I hope you can make it in to give it a try!
KC has lots of places. Oklahoma Joe’s is in an old gas station (that I think still sells gas) but if you want food before 1 go at 10, because at 11, when they open, the line is around the building.
As a matter of fact, Atlanta is on my short list. I will definitely keep Matt's in mind. Thanks!@@jimd461
Been there. Loved it. @@zacharymoore9028
I wish everybody had Milton Zanders' passion for life!!
You've got it made running around the countryside eating all those great foods! More power to ya!
Columbia SC native here. SC barbecue is so frequently overlooked, so I was very happy to see this. I grew up with Piggy Park, peppery, not so sweet and not so soupy. SC hash is ALWAYS served over rice.
Yeah I’m from Augusta which is close to Columbia and South Carolina BBQ I’d slept on. All these other BBQ states especially Texas love to say the BBQ is just mustard which is insane. It infuriates me to the highest degree! No other state makes BBQ better than South Carolina then the rest can fall in line after.
Piggy Park is straight up garbage.. Mass cooked and sent to all its locations. Over priced and not good at all.
I played tee ball on the Piggy Park team, which meant I was a 7 year old with a green hat that said PP, sponsored by a man who filled his restaurant with legit confederate propaganda.
@@erfling1 😯
Or with sandwich bread!
I never knew about hash! Loved learning about a new type of BBQ
Barbecue is definitely an art. It's something you will have to grow to love over time and appreciate the labor that goes into it to make it happen. Above all, it is as AMERICAN as any other thing, apple pie, Coca-Cola, Ford, and so on.
Lol Milton Zanders from True BBQ is the man! Great video, love this series!
Wow, that guy seems like a hoot! I'll have to look up his place if I ever end up down there in SC!
He is indeed the man.
I will be traveling to SC in December from France! I cannot wait to stop in one of these holy BBQ SANCTUARIES 😂! Thanks for this video. ❤
Enjoy your trip!
Even though it wasn't mentioned, it was awesome to see Ward's hash being tasted. Ward's is my favorite!
Somehow I've missed this in life. I've never eaten hash. I'll put that on my bucket list . Thanks for the video
True BBQ is very, very much legit
been going to Hite's for years, wish they were open more days of the week.
Absolutely loved it! Did not know about hash! Video just reminds us again that bbq is a true art form.
I could never explain to my friends in other Southern states what I was talking about. Now they can see for themselves. p.s. Midway's style is the favorite in the Upstate where I'm from.
I describe it as a "sort of pulled pork stew". It only gets me halfway there, but it's a start.
It's so hard to explain to someone that isn't from SC what hash is and why it's so amazing. It's one of those things you just have to taste to believe.
Sconyers BBQ and hash. Augusta, Ga. It’s been served at the White House and the Georgia Capitol. Indescribably delicious. Just a stone’s throw from SC.
Got to tell my buds from GA about yall they have never had hash they live swainsboro area
I’m over the border in NC, and have never had SC hash. Looking forward to a trip soon to sample!!
Eat it over grits in the morning too!
So true!!
Thanks for adding actual captions for the Deaf
If you click on the video (any video), at the top right it has an icon that says "CC" .... If you click on that it will bring up the closed captions for you. Hope that helps you. Have a good day 😊
😂😂😂😂😂. Rookie.
Great series. I hope to see more of great foods from this vast country.
Thanks!
Mustard hash for me. Only cooked it once or twice, but it's worth it.
Similar to Brunswick Stew but much, much better. Hash should always be served over rice. No potatoes should be added.
Brunswick Stew? You must be from Georgia!
In Alabama its Camp Stew or you're not from around here. LOL. 😉
@@sprague49 lol, yes, I do live in Georgia.
It’s Brunswick Stew in SC, as well, though, I firmly consider it an entirely different dish in almost every way from hash.
Please , more !!
I love Sweatmans BBQ, their hash is amazing. Holly Hill Sc.
Preach
I gotta make my way down to SC, looks delicious
I grew up with corned beef hash in NJ. Some of the best breakfast there is outside of Pork Roll.
Love your “On the Road” series. It always looks awesome. What I don’t get is why you don’t weigh 400 lbs after all that great food! Ha!
I spend a lot of time at the gym. LOL
I have never heard of BBQ hash
It's just called hash. Eaten over rice, primarily a lowcountry bbq staple and can be found up to the midlands of the state.
Got to try it one day
Ooo I want your job! lol. Never had Bar-B-Q hash but it is on my list now.
Hash is a new one on me, but man would I love to try the many different kinds!
I would love some of this bbq after some good hash😎
I see what you did there.
Good luck to you Boston folks is another way of saying Bless your heart. 😂
😂 You ain't even lyin! He just got told to go F himself 😅
The best pulled pork sandwiches in the world Jones Barbecue diner in Marianna, Arkansas they do only one thing for over 100 years on my way to Houston TX made sure to route by but closer to home & my personal favorite is Frankie's Chicken Shack in Salisbury, North Carolina, dipped fried chicken is much like it sounds: fried chicken that's dipped in a hot sauce. Except the original sauce is and probably always will remain a mystery. Frankie's closed in 2004, and the Cureton family still holds the recipe close.
The hash at Carolina BBQ in New Ellenton SC is what I dream about.
Lord Have Mercy,if I had been on that trip I Would Have Foundered...👍👍
Time for another Carolina Barbecue Tour for me!
Just thank you.
Midway is definitely a special place out in the middle of no where, but absolutely worth the drive! So glad to see them featured here.
Great people. Great food.
That chikken Stew at Midway is epic
Yes, it is!
Absolutely loving these segments!
Thanks!
God I miss my hash and rice from SC. That Pee Dee vinegar style is incredible. I don't know if I could do a sweet hash though.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dukes BBQ is the absolute best hash.
Dukes is often overlooked but a solid offering, all around. Though we live in Columbia and have eaten at the one that used to be here, the one in Walterboro always seemed somehow better.
Dukes in Aiken is damn good. Hell, we ride from Lexington to go eat there.
It is good!!! Better than Brunswick stew!
This sounds yummy, and maybe I'd be persuaded by the aroma when I came into the building, but it all looks far too soupy / broth-y to appeal to me. Looks more like pork soup. I'm with @vnokesCO in saying that my mental image of hash, which I've cooked from scratch many times, is something with diced potatoes, onion, and a few other simple ingredients that can be formed into patties and cooked / fried on a griddle or in a frying pan. As described, the flavors are appealing, but the texture is definitely a regional thing that I find off-putting.
If you ever make it to SC, just give it a try. I promise you'll like it.
I believe you are describing a food along the lines of “corned beef hash” as opposed to BBQ hash. It does cook soupy but ladled over rice the liquids drain down and you are left with something of a rice “topping” with some structure to it.
can we get a list of all the restaurants on the hash sample tray
Midway. On a bun. Nothing else is needed. When it's gone, tip up the container and drink the juice. It's always a hard sell to new folks until you convince them to take a bite. Then they're hooked.
I'm trying to wrap my head around, how he says he hasn't seen anyone do it the way " they do it" when there is one of the oldest and biggest family owned and operated bbq joint not even a mile away from him that cooks with all wood, and makes 1800lbs of traditional hash a week being said that joint is Maurice's piggie park!
Hash kinda looks like my family's version of Brunswick stew.
Dukes BBQ. Charleston or Ridgeville. Best hash and rice. And good fried chicken too!
Ridgeville fell off gotta hit up the one on folly road on James island.
Some of the best mustard sauce ever, along with bessingers. Hell, some of them were kin, can't remember exactly.
I lived on James Island before the Dukes came in. We used to go to the one in Walterboro. Back then, I think the buffet and stick was $5 - absolutely unbelievable value.
@@jonchines
Angel Oak baby!! Love duke's. I always thought their bbq, hash were great. Their sauce is in the too 3, maybe #1.
I'm hungry
Oh boy… I could spend a month there pigging out on all of that amazing food, gladly gaining 10ish pounds
Hash is not acclaimed to South Carolina alone. Here in Georgia we have Sconyers BBQ. And we have the best hash around. And to make a point Sconyers once catered to Jimmy Carter @ the white house when he was first elected.
Georgia barbecue ain't nothing like south carolina barbecue, Give me a break.
I mean I'm sure you can find it in other southern states but it is famously known as a strictly South Carolina thing. every single bbq place WILL have it.... or they will be forced to shut down.
That is right over the line, guaranteed it was learned in sc, or had sc kin.
Welcome to South Carolina, Bryan! I'm glad you got to taste Ward's hash (pretty sure I saw it labeled right under True BBQ). It's usually pretty sweet tasting to most folks.
Back in the day, you didn't ask what was in the hash - you just ate it. Like the gentleman from True said, "From rooter to the tooter" is what you used. Nothing was wasted on the hog, and many families sold a hog around Christmas to buy gifts.
When I think of hash, this video was not it. My thoughts go to like corned beef hash, with diced potatoes, that's cooked on a griddle & served in a lot of diners. With that said, this sounds delicious & I would love to try it. Thanks for bringing this hash to the rest of the world that didn't know it existed 😊
This was very well done. Do more of these.
Will do. Thanks!
Why did he have to say liver?
My family does a “clean” hash and a traditional hash. Clean is just butter and a little chicken. Traditionally (I’m low country moved to midlands), it is “anything not used somewhere else”.
Lindsey's BBQ & Hospitality House in North Little Rock, Arkansas, pulled pork is my fav!
Will anyone give their recipe out?
Shealy’s in Batesburg is pretty good
That needs to be kept a secret. I refuse to recommend it before it gets ruined. I've eaten ALOT of bbq all over and that's the best place in the whole state. Ever since lonestar burnt down 😢
The food is good enough. Solid fried chicken offering and acceptable pulled pork. Their hash, however, on my opinion is not their strength. It is usually very fatty and a bit weak in overall flavor/character when compared to others in the state. They do have what is probably the biggest buffet in terms of variety, for sure.
Imho Shealy's has gone down Hill big time. Stopped eating there years ago. Hudson's in Lexington is still ok but, Dukes in Aiken is our go to now.
@@jonchines Really only reason to go there now is if you're on the way to The Big Mo
What is this? Milk Street?
From SC. The hash I have tasted, to me, taste like overcooked homemade baby food.. can eat it through a straw. And many put it over instant rice, blah
Ummm. Gimme a bowl of Campbells tomato soup and a velveeta cheese sanwich!
What is hash ?
Best SC-style hash I've had was at Leroy and Lewis BBQ in Austin, TX
Blasphemy 😊
Well, Lewis is in SC now. Set up shop just down the road from Rodney Scott in Charleston…
@@jonchines different Lewis entirely
I stand corrected. John Lewis of the Charleston Lewis BBQ was the pitmaster at Franklin’s. Both Austin BBQ joints, both Lewis’s - you can understand the mistake, I hope. :)
@@jonchines between all the Lewises, Millers, and Hutchins, it's hard to keep track. I was at Lewis BBQ and Rodney Scott's just last week. Both excellent.
So it's just chilli but with pork instead of red meat.
Way off. It varies some, traditionally in the low country, hence eating it over rice.. one would boil a how's head and use other organ meat. It is basically a liquid sausage. You find it up to the midlands which will take on more mustard base sauce added, compared to vinegar in the lowcountry. I believe it was an evolution of liver pudding, a traditional English dish. Good hash is amazing over rice and is an absolute accompanying side to bbq in sc, the birthplace of bbq.
Stretchy pants, indeed. 😮
It would have helped if you had explained exactly what South Carolina hash is. All I got from this video is that it contains meat, is particular to South Carolina and that there's different varieties. I guess we're supposed to assume.
So, the exact details are regional within the state. They talked about lot about midland (central part of the state) hash. It is mustard-based. You will find tomato/ketchup based in the low country.
Traditionally, all the “leftovers” (snout, hoof meat, trimmings, etc.) but most restaurants do a clean version that is largely pork shoulder/butt. It is cooked down (simmered) in a liquid (water, usually) with onions and peppers, drained, ground, mixed with a little broth, spices (I like liver pudding spices), and some “flavoring” liquid (mustard, ketchup, vinegar, or combo), then served over rice.
Hope that helps.
@@jonchines Thank you, that was very informative!
Come to Jack's Bar-B-Q in Oklahoma City. Great food since 1963.
Hites is very good as well as Hudson's in Lexington. Those two are with out a doubt the best in Columbia. Now, venture out and get some better BBQ.. Columbia is not the staple of the best BBQ in SC.
interesting patriots jersey at 5:34 , wonder what thats all about. Edit: 93 is Lawrence Guy, but hes from Vegas and went to school at Arizona State. Weird
That's a Richard Seymour jersey he's from SC
@@erikfreitas7045 nice
Chris, I mean this in the best way, but it is disgusting how easy you make it look to make a beautiful fit by hand filing.
I will take Brunswick stew over that any day.
It’s better then Brunswick stew
Dixie Pig in Rock Hill. The very best BBQ in the Carolinas.
So hash is like a soupy boudain without the rice or scraple without the corn meal.
I guess they don’t care or have health department inspections down there? Some things are best unseen and eaten I guess.
Yeah, well, you really don't want to know what hash used to be made out of (and some places it still is).
You can stay home. Bless your heart.
Took them 8 minutes to actually explain what hash is.
I was in until they mentioned the pork liver. 🤢 Nope NOPE NOPE!!!
Not all recipes call for liver. It’s usually just shredded barbecue
I love it when some of these dudes claim that if you don’t do it the way they do, it’s wrong… whatever. 🤡
Recommend cutting the first 28 seconds of the video because that type of opinion as a starter is going to turn a lot of people off to your videos.
I thought the same thing.
Cooking with wood is the way to cook barbecue. There's nothing controversial about what the gentleman said.
Never said I personally disagreed. @@HunterBidenCocaineBag
Time is running out please read the words of Jesus christ
good BBQ is an oxymoron
BBQ Hut in sumter. Which is old Wards recipe.
