Best Barbecue Hamburger Recipe

Do you know the taste of a Dixie Pig Barbecue Sandwich (from Alexandria, Virginia)?
I am looking for a sandwich with the appearance, taste, texture of the barbecue sandwiches that used to be sold by the Dixie Pig Barbecue restaraunts of Alexandria, Va. Dixie Pig had a couple locations… Beacon Hill and also old town Alex. The sandwiches were a pulled pork type as best I recall… but I never saw them barbecue anything there as I remember. It seemed they just pulled out a plastic bucket and grabbed an ice cream scoop and dropped a dollup on each hamburger bun and served it to you. They were great though… maybe it was the sauce… I dunno. I am looking for a recipe, a taste, maybe another restaraunt, anywhere, that serves a sandwich like that. Anyone out there remember this one? Thanks!
I don’t know about Dixie Pig, but the Virgnia Barbecue Review says that Ben’s Whole Hog in Manassas is the best around! Give them a try!
Here is the review: We had suspected long before we actually found it, that there must be a good barbecue joint in Manassas. We finally found it earlier this summer, and what a discovery. I will stick my neck out here and say that it in my estimation, is THE BEST in the Washington metro area. Why? Because the meat is so slow-cooked, patiently, lovingly and respectfully–and it shows. Four visits have concentrated on the pulled pork sandwich and two sides–we haven’t yet had the ribs, but we hear they are terrific too.
