I thought I had heard of everything to do with Virginia.  But I received a note this morning that somebody who used to live in Richmond and now is somewhere out in Illionois produced a delicacy of Virginia Pork:

"....highly smoked pork shoulder, shredded, with some sort of home made
barbeque sauce, served on a bun with cole slaw on top. "

I know, or course, of Virginia hams (In this age of high cholesterol, are they still around?) and North Carolina barbecue, but does anybody know anything about the lineage of Virgina Pork?  I bet peanut-fed hogs are involved :))
