I thought there was difference in the texture/taste of BBQ sauce (Texas/La vs Carolina), in that the BBQ on the East Coast is thin and full of vinegar, and real "tomatoey", as opposed to the thick, hickory-sweet stuff down in TX & La. I'm asking because I've never had BBQ on the East Coast.

from what i understand, carolina BBQ uses a vinegar and red pepper sauce.....it's not a thick sauce at all.....

and there is probably more to it than that

edit: it's not "tomatoey" at all
