Barbecue expert John Shelton Reed and I have different ideas.
I spoke with him about the recent death of Wilber Shirley, the legendary founder of Wilber’s, one of North Carolinian’s favorite places to enjoy pit-cooked Eastern North Carolina barbecue.
Wilberdean Shirley opened Wilber’s Barbecue in Goldsboro in 1962 and made it into an icon that became a local institution and attracted visitors from all over the state. Before the opening of the Highway 70 bypass, Wilber’s was a regular stop for Piedmont North Carolinians traveling to and from the beach. The loss of that business along with other factors led to Wilber’s closure two years ago.

Sticky spicy sludge is my speciality
I have an unhealthy (probably) relationship with hot sauce. I love the stuff and I can t get enough. Let s take a look at a few of my favorites from the past couple of years.

There s little in the world of savory edible delights that I won t ruin by smothering hot sauce all over it. I ve preferred a spicy pepper smear for my fried foods over regular tomato ketchup for as long as I can remember. Recent viral sensations like ghost chili challenges or the Hot Ones YouTube show have brought small-batch handcrafted hot sauces to the forefront of social media over the years and I was not immune to infection. I was gifted with a Hot Ones subscription to their monthly box of sauces a couple Christmases ago and I finally cancelled it after collecting over 30 bottles of various sauces. Let s take a look at some of the standout favorites that took my tastebuds for a ride.

He was the teddy bear with magic powers who was a cartoon favourite among royal princes and a generation of children - and now SuperTed is being brought back to life once again.
More than 35 years since his last show, his creators are set to sprinkle magic dust over SuperTed again and recreate him for a new audience.
Work on new episodes is expected to start later this year.
It is hoped SuperTed will be back on TV screens by 2023.
His return will be the latest cartoon comeback.
