they helped themselves with those foods
not sure what
ends of barbecue
means, as I am not big on barbecue ...

Mr. Piggease didn't have nothing but a shack that he sold his
bar-becue out of. Only about ten people could get in there at any one
time. He had his barbecue grill laid with bricks, made it himself. He
also built the chimney and you could smell that charcoal smoke all
over 15th Street.
So everybody got themselves a sandwich or one of
those bad small ends of barbecue before the day was out. The stuff was
ready about six o'clock; he had it all cooked and done. I'd be there
at six on the dot, giving him his paper, the Chicago Defender or the
Pittsburgh Courier, both black newspapers. I'd give him both of those
papers and he'd give me two pig snouts; pig snouts costk
