 BBQ
is one of America’s original cuisines
Primitive man captured fire and soon afterwards realized that cooked meat over a flame tasted better than raw. The technique of barbecue was born! The origin of the name barbecue is less certain. Some claim the word barbecue comes from the French term "barbe a queue" which translates into "from head to tail." Others claim the term comes from an early nineteenth century advertisement for an establishment that featured a whiskey bar, beer hall and billiards -Bar-Beer-Cue. While those possibilities are interesting, the most common belief is that the name originated from the West Indian term "barbacoa," which is used to describe the method of slow-cooking meat over hot coals. Barbecue is one of America's original methods of preparing various cuisines. Since before the Civil War, early American settlers relied on barbecue as a staple food. During the nineteenth century the popularity of barbecue spread across the country. Today the term barbecue has grown to include weekend cookouts on backyard grills, beach parties and tailgating. Barbecue is a slow cooking process that brings out the best flavors in meat, vegetables and seafood. Each region of the United States has its own style and way to barbecue, as well as its preference for the perfect side. The South is known for its share of "good fixin's."
