A mop is a sauce that is applied to meats as they cook on the grill. the mop can also be used to sauce the meat after it is cooked.
 
I use a rub on my butt, and I like it...
Then I take the same rub, add in the vinegar and mustard (in a squeeze bottle) shake it up, and squirt on my butt or ribs or chicken... works for me- easier than an actual mop, with less clean-up.
 
I am a-MAZED that any self respecting NC BBQ cook would have a mustard sauce!!!! ;o)
 
Gretchen, 'splain about the battle in NC over the mustard-based and tomato-based sauces. Can't remember which side of the state prefers which.

I had always thought in NC that it was all mustard/vinegar all the time.
 
OMG, NO, NO. NC has the dignity to have TWO sauce preferences and never the twain shall meet. Eastern NC loves its vinegar sauces--take a quart of vinegar, add a little brown sugar and then add about a half a cup of either black pepper or red pepper. Put THAT on your sammich and try to breathe.
Western NC--defined as "Lexington BBQ-- favors a tomato/vinegar based recipe that is much like mine that is posted in a lot of places--including here, along with my Carolina Pulled pork recipe. It is mellow and delicious.
However south of the NC state line there is a mustard concoction that they refer to as "BBQ sauce". It was first made famous )and not too long ago) by Maurice ____ who runs a BBQ place in Columbia, SC.
I would not dare serve it!!! (Can you take a joke!.But I don't serve it)
