God bless the Native Americans, African Americans, and poor ranch hands all over the south that made the best way of cooking possible. Also, if he's not in the hall of fame yet, Rodney Scott needs to be in there. That man is legendary
I applaud the efforts to communicate the cultural roots of what we call North American BBQ. I understood the historical contributions of the black community but didn't fully appreciate the profound and foundational impact of the various native populations that live here. Thanks for sharing!
African Americans produced so much good barbecue that it facilitated every event you can think of and made it memorable in the history of the USA. The names of the chefs may be lost, but the tradition they helped to build still lives. Their dug-out-of-the-ground-pit method is the origin of the "barbecue pit" today. Great video!
I've always lamented and satired about the fact that the only original American form of cuisine came from people that were horribly oppressed and dehumanized everything else is a bastardized commercialized capitalism inspired mutation of another cultures creation I mean smoking and curing meats in common sense came from tribal people's all over the world and people should try to look at what real history is. Always wanted to know how much of what my friends have taught me was true and not even a stereotype I'm a Detroit boy and I'm white you put two BBQ stands next to each other I'm going to go with the husky black man with a big ol smile they put soul into their cooking it's not just a pun you can tell the difference when someone's passionate and has a hospitable soul or not especially in their cooking 🖤have a good new sub in me thank you so much for the extra information I'm gonna watch more of your stuff now please do more of the history that schools try to whitewash or deem not important or illuminating of atrocities committed by humans to one another I'd love to watch those so very much my brother. Well wishes from MI 💙💛
Because ur a colonizer who wants everyone to believe ur not a colonizer by culturally stealing native American history and food and applying it to African Americans so u wouldn't take much criticism by historians from around the world Typically to set up Africans for failure so u wouldn't look stupid
Reading your post made me realize that most GOOD food revolutions/invention, comes from the lower classes trying to feed them selves with food that actually tastes good. Haha
3:30 I went to school with her 3 of her children and have ate at their BBQ spot quite a bit they in North Memphis.... They are well to do if as well...
The elimination of sauce comes from using better cuts of meat.....the slaves didn't get the best cuts. Even today, where brisket was/is just about the worst cut of meat on the cow (even the frikken Irish used it,) thanks to hipsters and yuppies it's north of $5/lb for choice. Barbecue was the poor mans feast. I'm more inclined to sauce pork.....never really sauce beef.
It’s not barbecue if you don’t use sauce! It’s jerky! I don’t care how good the cut of meat is! You are smoking on a grill for ten hours! It’s going to be dry and hard to swallow!!
Trench method has been used in Mexican barbacoa for centuries and used by vaquero cooking whos background is the central Mexican charros. Well.. charros and vaqueros/cowboys were natives Americans… barbacoa native turn to Charro barbacoa to vaquero/cowboy barbacoa/bbq. The “dots” have never existed. There’s is barbacoa de pozo that goes a step forward by using a digger hole. The United States border move South acquiring south Texas and the southwest with their cooking and the vaquero traditions. Yes including the Mexican/Tejano/Texan horse saddle (adopted by McClellan saddle), lasso, chaparreras/chaps, vaquero/cowboy/guardianes de Cuera hat.. etc.
People out here trying to say other cultures invented BBQ when it's from an American name. If some other country invented it we would be using their word for it. Maybe some others countries influenced it but it's American or don't call it BBQ, you should have a word for it if it's from your traditions.
Well the word barbeque came from barbacoa and alot of culture have their own words for bbq it's just that english is the universal language for communication.
Get your facts straight, whites had absolutely nothing to do with Barbacoa or as it's mispronounced Barbecue. Native Americans and Black people created it, Whites just appropriated it. By the way America is a continent not a country!
BBQ is prehistoric human origin. Roasting and smoking meat over fire is 50,000 years old. AT LEAST. Buring meat with hot coals for cooking is ancient. Smokokng , hot or cold, dates to Ice Age.
THE BEST BBQ WAS BLACK AMERICAN😢😢 BECAUSE THEY WHERE BBQED THEY WAS SLOW ROASTED FOR ENTERTAINMENT BODY PARTS WAS TAKEN HOME BY THA MASSES N PPL WHO ATTENTED SUCH A HORRIBLE ACT AS TROPHY..... ♥️👑
My brother needs to brush up on his history. Enslaved Africans didn’t come here as dumb, deaf and blind people. They came here with their own cooking techniques as well. Barbecuing is as African as African can get. Look at West and Central African barbecuing techniques, and it is the exact same to a T. Quit giving these so-called Native Americans credit for our ancestors works. Shame!
My friend Thomas's uncle when I was a child told me a lot of the history I'd never be told in school as he bbqed for their household and as a white kid I appreciated the insight even more. Everyone that listens I explain how the only original American food is technically African and it came from slaves and studying world cultures and cooking most my life you can tell by the seasoning profiles and the cooking methods alone BBQ is pretty much adapted African cooking to survive wtf they had to go through here. I wish there were channels that covered these parts of history in truth the way people like myself would care to know. Thanks for validating some of the things I wasn't sure were correct or not 🖤
@Paul A, Shut up, Paul. It's only one way to erase history, and that's if it existed. So, how am I erasing history by highlighting the true part of history? You have a good evening, Paul.
Barbecue comes from the taino's It's their language. So how can another race come up with an invention and then call it a different language that's from their own?
Spainards brought cattle and horses to america in 1492 when there was no white man or black men in America. The word barbeque comes from the Spanish word barbacoa. That right there tells you who brought barbequing to America. Spainards taught their sons the Mexicans how to barbeque. Native American Indians were the mothers of Mexicans. DNA of a Mexican is 50 percent spainard and 50 percent native American indian. The cattle that spainards brought was eaten by Indians and Mexicans in the 1500s they would barbeque it over flames, Mexicans would build underground pits to barbeque meat. Just that being said should stop all who say their race created barbeque? Remember i said cattle was brought from Spain to America.I want you to think about this, if cattle was in Spain before Christopher Columbus came to America don't you think they knew how to cook cattle meat? There is only one way to cook meat and that would be to barbeque it in a brick oven or open flames? Also if spainards brought horses to america then that would tell you who the first cowboys were the vaqueros? Please stop trying to rewrite Spanish history and take credit for something you black Americans didn't create?
Please!!!!! Please!!!! Please!!!! STOP!!!!!! the lies about saying Native American Indians created American barbecue. As a proud african american women that know her american history and african american history we need to stop telling the story that Native American Indians invented barbecue. Enslaved African american invented, cultivated, American barbecue cuisine. Enslaved african american invented everything for colonial America. My enslaved ancestors invented the agricultural system for colonial american for crops wheat, rice, potatoes, onions, fish, etc. Enslaved african americans invented barbecue and gave it flavored that all american enjoyed then and now.
God bless the Native Americans, African Americans, and poor ranch hands all over the south that made the best way of cooking possible.

THIS QUEEN DON'T US THA WORD BBQ SHE SAYS COOK OUT ❤👑
What I read is that African slaves learned about BBQ when they where in the Caribbean , BBQ is a acronym from Barbacoa, and that's taino word
I mean we still have carne asada, cooking in hornos and hoyos so idk about indigenous fading away from BBQ
What about native American pit naster

100% Agreed!

The native techniques in the illustrations looks lile just preserving or drying like jerky. Don't look like what we do.
