I live in Seattle now and so far haven't found any good bbq here (seems like thick ketchup-based sauces, a little bit of Pulled pork and lots of Beef brisket passes for bbq in the Pacific NW ...now, that just isn't considered bbq where I'm from.) I grew up in eastern North Carolina where everyone knows that BBQ is Chopped PORK, not pulled or sliced pork.... and Absolutely NO, and I do mean NO... beef or ketchup are allowed on the premises! Try the "Barbecue Hut" in Fayetteville, NC just off I-95 or "Wilber's Barbecue" in Goldsboro for some authentic eastern NC bbq.
