19th Century Barbecued Whole Hog in Georgia

Georgia Barbecued Pig, The Morning Times, July 13, 1896 

The Morning Times newspaper from July 13, 1896 describes how they used to barbecue whole hog in Georgia during the 19th century. The basting sauce is based on the 18th century Virginia basting sauce which goes to show the great influence that Virginia barbecue cooks had on barbecue cooks in the rest of the country.
