Rodney Scott's Whole Hog Sauce (Charleston)

Rodney Scott cooks whole hogs over oak and pecan coals in Charleston, South Carolina, and his sauce is the Lowcountry in liquid form. Vinegar-based, pepper-flecked, thin enough to soak into pulled pork rather than sit on top of it. Scott won the James Beard Award for Best Chef Southeast, and this sauce is the reason people drive from three states away.
