OK, so what's the deal with "shredded beef"? You Merkins roast a perfectly good joint of beef and then pull it apart with a pair of forks, douse it in bbq sauce and call it food?
And pulled pork - apart from the snigger quotient, is that the same sort of thing?
And what are "hominies"?
And "grits"?
