Well if that's the case:

On Franklin's BBQ:

It is the best. It is the finest brisket I've ever had. I can't imagine anyone could surpass this. It's unearthly in its moistness, in its perfect balance. Listen -- I waited in line an hour and a half to get in there. [Laughs.] I stood on line. That's part of the experience, to stand in line. It's a whole social thing. But let me tell you, by the time I was, oh, 10 feet away from that brisket, looking at it, I understood why'd I'd waited on line with everybody else. I could tell just from the way it hit the cutting board that this was going to be just earth-shatteringly good. And it was indeed.

Andrew Knowlton agrees:

If you've ever been addicted to drugs your opinions are invalid when it comes to everything!

I don't go out to eat to eat BBQ, tbh. I like what comes out of the smoker in my backyard over all that other shit.

If it is so good by itself, then why have a distinctive sauce and then not that you can put this distinctive sauce on the dry ribs?

i think you're confusing a rub with a sauce

If I am, so is some chick from Memphis:

Memphis barbecue sauce has its own distinctive flavor, as well. Though the specific ingredients will vary from cook to cook, Memphis sauce is usually made with tomatoes, vinegar, and any countless combination of spices. It is generally thin, tangy, and somewhat sweet. Memphis sauce is poured over pulled pork or served along side of dry ribs.

This guy notes "prefers BBQ dry" but that should only be a reference to the ribs and not to all BBQ, since Memphis folks like their pulled pork and such with a sauce: http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2011/05/sauced-memphis-style-barbecue-sauce.html

There is enough of a distinction that even Bulls-Eye put out a version, so apparently the confusion is rampant.

I think you forgot to mention the Paris/TLS ritual of coming in season 1, doing fairly well during the regular season then getting curb-stomped season two and demoting... what's that called... "beginner's luck"??

Oh, btw, your analogy is awful. The correct analogy would be to consider comparable situations where something unnecessary was added, degrading the experience. E.g, a condom during sex when you don't need one compares directly to covering a correctly done dry-rub bbq with sauce.

I.e., the compared cases are both subtraction by addition.

No, unnecessary would be adding BBQ sauce to bacon, which is why it is the superior smoked meat. If BBQ could not be made better by sauce, there would be no BBQ sauce. Nobody adds sauce to bacon to make it better, but instead add bacon to other foods to make *them* better.

I stand by my analogy, because sex with condom < sex without condom, baby-making notwithstanding.
