Love it! Val was ( is )  very helpful to us all, that's for sure. She's the one who told me about my DS doctor being in Dayton, which is where I grew up.

 I have three commercial sauces all of the time, and when I can get my hands on some fresh hot peppers, I'll cook them down with some cheap liquor and something sweet and make a really hot sauce.  It's the meat that's the star, though.  You don't want to cover up the smoky goodness that we cook old-school fresh every day.  People start calling at 10am on weekends to reserve their racks of ribs at dinner.  There have been days where  I was sold out of ribs or brisket before it even came off of the smoker.

Valerie-
     If I lived anywhere near you, I'd be swinging by for a Naked Nasty Pile o Meat.  It sounds awesome.   I actually do go to the only decent BBQ place I've found in CA and then mix greens in with naked pulled pork BBQ.  Yum.
     Do you have a special low carb sauce you use?  I love me some BBQ, but so many of the sauces available comercially are so sugary. 
     Damnit - now I want BBQ!

First off, I never bothered counting carbs, but I did pick and choose where things were absolutely necessary or worthwhile, and BBQ sauce counts as that.  So was my homemade corn muffins instead of a sandwich bun.  I make reasonable choices with things, and splurge on some.  It's just me living realistically, yet not recklessly.  

BBQ can definitely be a lower carb food, though, like some pork or chicken topped with some slaw with a side of green beans or collard greens.  Oh yeah, that's living!

I had never had coleslaw on pulled pork before until I went to Memphis and Nashville on business trips and ate at  BBQ restaurants in both places that topped my pulled pork with coleslaw.  But, boy, I sure did like it.  From now on, when I go to eat BBQ, I will be requesting coleslaw and no bun.  YUM!!

We have lots of fun with slaw - but only by request.  My customers helped come up with names:

Sloppy Wilbur topped with slaw = Pig Nasty (some call it The Hot Mess)
Naked pork topped with slaw = Naked Nasty
Brisket topped with slaw = Moo Nasty
Chicken topped with slaw = Dirty Bird

Your restaurant sounds like a really cool place.  I love all of the creative names on the menu.  Makes it more fun.
