'stache #4 - pulled pork moustache




Few food moustaches are so steeped in controversy as the pulled pork moustache. Worn dressed in a vinegar based sauce in Eastern North Carolina, the moustache takes on a sweeter, tomato-based character in Western North Carolina. Still other areas wear the minced pork moustache in a mustard-based sauce, although most experts agree that such a variation is fundamentally disgusting. Regardless, the pulled pork moustache remains one of the most sought after of the meat moustaches, and remains a mark of distinction throughout the Southeastern United States.

Although purists insist the pulled pork moustache ought not be worn after labor day, it is not uncommon to see men sporting the mincedstache year round.
