Well that's okay with me, because I'll eat just about anything that once lived. The list of meats I have tried in my life is extensive, and the number of them I did not like is tiny.

Admittedly I've never been to a BBQ joint that comes to mind (unless Burbank's counts); but in Hawaii, you could find what the called "short-ribs" from smokers just off the side of the road. Pork is a lot more popular there than meat.
Since I don't have a smoker of my own, living in an apartment and all, I rely on barbecue joints. Fortunately, I live in an area that is quite abundant with them. Between the permanent stores and the food trucks I can find about a dozen places to get barbecue any day of the week within a 10 mile radius. That isn't even counting the barbecue chicken fundraisers going on every weekend this time of year where you can't go a mile without seeing a gas station with a truck bed full of coolers that are filled with foil wrapped chicken halves being sold anywhere from $4-6.
See, I'm much more of a pork fan than beef. I would be perfectly content to never eat beef again in my life. Between sheep, goat, pig (wild and farm raised), deer, fish, various birds, bear, etc., I could go without cow and be quite content.
