Debbie Holt, owner of Clyde Cooper’s Barbecue in North Carolina, was left stunned when a customer complained to her claiming her slow-cooked pork dish was undercooked.
She quickly explained to the diner the pork is meant to be slightly pink and is the sign of a perfect barbecue meal – as other customers tried to reassure her too.
The owner told WRAL : “When she said it to me I said, âExcuse me?’ “I kind of snickered a little bit and told her, âHoney, that’s when the barbecue is smoked. It turns pink.”
