Hear Apple City BBQ Pitmaster Adam Dula share the story of his family-owned and operated barbecue business in Taylorsville, NC.
Much of North Carolina continues the Eastern vs. Western debate. However, the Dula family and Apple City BBQ dedicate their attention to producing good barbecue, regardless of your geography.
Indeed, Apple City barbecue focuses on producing good quality meat, smoked low and slow. They let others debate whether you add tomato to your sauce or choose shoulder over whole hog.
Meanwhile, Apple City BBQ just happens to include its own unique take on sauce. It’s neither Lexington-style nor Eastern Carolina vinegar. But it does deserve just as much attention – especially on the brisket.
