Barbecue in North Carolina
Barbecue is an important part of the heritage and history of the U.S. state of North Carolina.  It has resulted in a series of bills and laws that relate to the subject, and at times has been a politically charged subject.  In part, this is due to the existence of two distinct types of barbecue that have developed over the last few hundred years: Lexington style and Eastern style.  Both are pork-based barbecues but differ in the cuts of pork used and the sauces they are served with.  In addition to the two native varieties, other styles of barbecue can be found throughout the state.

Some direct-to-video genre films (with a high-profile star) can generate well in excess of $50 million revenue worldwide.
