We are four average college students from Birmingham-Southern College in Birmingham, AL and we are embarking on a trip of our lifetime. Through the Interim program, we are on a 17-day academic journey across the South to eat, analyze, and blog about Southern barbecue. Yes, we get college credit to eat and write about barbecue! Our project focuses on the cultural origins, differences in style, and significance of Southern pork barbecue through the framework of food and travel writing. Primary project output will be an interactive group blog (updated daily throughout the month...Check out our blog at bbqboys.blogspot.com.) and individual research papers (submitted at the conclusion of the Interim term). You can also help support the BBQ Boys by checking out our online store at District Lines.  The BBQ Boys are planning on donating a large portion of their income to a non-profit organization.  More information on what exact organization we plan to donate to will be available shortly.  We appreciate all of your time and support!
