Not country, but you should totally include Method Man's "Tical" if only for the line "Standin in the welfare line, eatin swine."

Not country, more folk pop, but worth mentioning:

Poi Dog Pondering -"Watermelon"
Jazz Butcher Conspiracy - "Hungarian Love Song" (cannibalism, more or less)
Prefab Sprout - "Blueberry Pies" (which Willie should cover)

Tony Furtado & The American Gypsies had a song called "Fatfry On The Hog Farm"

Just if you want it. Not great, but it's really about nothing but barbecue, and there's plenty worse than Robert Earl Keen.

Probably my favorite REK song. Good call.

The McGraw song is "The Heart Don't Forget" not terrible as far as mainstream country goes these days.

If I can find it, I have Too Much Pork (For Just One Fork) by Southern Culture On The Skids. Which is perfect.

Cocaine Blues, by Cash, what with the "lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be" but that's stretching it.

Portland OR by Loretta and Jack White (Slo Gin Fizz).
