It really should read pit cooked barbecue, which originated as hardwood coals in a pit, dug in the ground, big enough for an entire pig.
Nowadays the "pit" may well be an above ground brick structure.
The important part is that it be located in eastern North Carolina, that you cook an entire pig at a time, and that the sauce be vinegar-based.
