Description
BBQ is a true American staple. This style of cooking, where meat is slowly roasted over an indirect flame, dates back far before Columbus’s arrival. Indigenous tribes both in the Caribbean and the United States used this technique, dubbed ‘barbacoa’ by the Spanish, to efficiently cook entire hogs. Over the years, the method made its way northward through the American colonies, however the developing of regional styles of barbecue are a relatively new phenomenon dating back to the nineteenth and twentieth century. Carolina BBQ is quite unique in the panorama of American cuisine; tangy yet complex, it has a base of yellow mustard paired with apple cider vinegar and onion, very different from the smoky tomato notes of the more widespread Texas BBQ.
Mustard is the critical ingredient in Carolina Gold sauce, and it’s due to German and French immigrants bringing the classic European pairing of pork and mustard with them southward.
