The South Carolina BBQ Project with Nathan Spainhour

South Carolina BBQ Project (https://www.bbqproject.com/) creator Nathan Spainhour takes you into the signs, symbols, and stories from the Palmetto State’s barbecue pits. Find out which 4 barbecue businesses he chose to represent South Carolina barbecue traditions. Learn how Nathan turned an MFA thesis focused on brain connections between place and memory into a visual journey through Southern cuisine traditions and barbecue nostalgia. Don’t miss the unique perspective he formed about the state and future of South Carolina’s legacy barbecue businesses as a new generation of SC-based barbecue franchises grows a larger footprint. BONUS: Details from the Greenville Barbecue Map (https://goodprintedthings.com/products/barbecue-map-greenville-south-carolina-travel-guide?srsltid=AfmBOooASCGHoc9uw7Srmlv4EmMlpb1HVrJQXVrvExJG3eCPY0_DJgpj) , including the barbecue that made the list, how it was selected, and the barbecue place Nathan takes first-time visitors to the South Carolina community he grew up in.
