I must say, the way they so appreciate this food speaks volume to their level of honesty and appreciation of what other cultures have to offer.

After watching the above, and lacking any real BBQ joints around here, I had to get some baby back ribs to smoke tomorrow! 
Not sure if you've ever watched this guy.

In the '90s, they had these cafeteria style (self-serve) BBQ-pits all over Dallas metro.
I am salivating; thinking about them.
I heard that they are now mobile BBQ trucks but without the old-style ambience.

Yes, watched Steven every week on PBS years ago. He had such an easy going personality. And great presentation of food and BBQ.

I remember going to visit a company in Austin 4 or 5 years ago. They bring in take out BBQ. I am thinking it is going to be just OK. Man, it was better than what we get in our BBQ restaurants! Really miss good BBQ....
Also, in the early 90s, after my 18 month tdy in Dallas, we decided to do a road trip back to SoCal.
Two tourist, somewhere in the northern part of the TX Panhandle, we pull into some big ranch with a restaurant.
I've never been able replicate that taste of beef anywhere in the US.
Almost a subtle wild-ish or maybe game-ish taste. Probably unprocessed, fresh and cured/bled properly. I will probably never find out.

This is definitely a reasonable apology for force feeding unsuspecting souls Popeye's...!
Being from the region I am fairly partial to Kansas City BBQ. But Memphis style is amazing as well, as is Texas BBQ. The only one (of the majors) that I don't get is Carolina.

Ever watch the Tribal People channel, similar reactions but to western food in general? https://www.youtube.com/@TribalPeopleTryOfficial
Yes, I like them. The way they reacted to boneless fish (salmon fillet/fish and chips), as if it was some kind of miracle, was heartwarming.

When MotoGp races in Texas all the riders talk about how they look forward to getting really great cheeseburgers. I've wondered if no one has cued them into good Texas BBQ. Although I have to say any good BBQ joint that has cheeseburgers usually has some of the best burgers too.
About Carolina sauce (mustard based), not my favorite, but I like it pretty good. The one I don't care for is the Alabama white sauce which is mayonnaise based with vinager and other spices.

Get you some spare ribs my man. Babybacks are nothing compared to the good stuff.After watching the above, and lacking any real BBQ joints around here, I had to get some baby back ribs to smoke tomorrow!
You may enjoy Aaron Franklin's series on PBS. BBQ With Franklin.
There is fish; then, there is salmon.
There is ribs, then, there is baby backs.
You and I would never have a food-fight, but I would not invite @amirm to my bbq party.

My wife only likes Babybacks. So that is what I smoke when it comes to ribs.
On top of that, there's always the Leroy and Lewis Patreon, and the related Chud's BBQ YouTube.
I haven't visited England in many years, but found the food just horrible (and weird). Had a couple of roommates from England over the years and they were quick converts especially when I BBQd.
