Fuck that shit. My white ancestors learned to barbecue in the old country before they took a boat over here in the 1800s. Many European countries have traditions of smoked meats with sauces. The whole Texas bbq tradition is based on the techniques all the Germans brought over. This is what happens when people are so willing to give in to white guilt that they try to change history.

White BBQ places seem to be more open to changing tastes and different ideas too.
Black places always seems to serve the same slop in a Styrofoam box covered in sauce that's too sweet or too vinegary with canned veg and dry corn bread because "that's how Pappy did it"
Well Pappy made shitty depression food.
The white guy down the street is kicking your ass not because of racism but because he's trying new ideas.

Now there are some younger black pitmasters out there that get this and are competing with whitey just fine.

I'm not going to say that modern barbecue is "forgetting its African-American roots" or whatever the shit but it's a matter of historical record that southern barbecue and the role of the pitmaster was predominantly black. The cooks, the people actually dealing with the meat and working the smoke and the fire were black.

Actually you've made yourself look quite foolish. Northern Africa and sub Saharan Africa have always been two distinct areas. Egypt, all those shining golden cities ancient explorers mentioned, those were the rich civilizations of northern Africa on the Mediterranean. They even drew the distinction themselves, there are multiple references to sub Saharan slaves, depicted much darker than the sightly fairer northern Africans.

neither of us made anything other than proclamations without evidence. i am not sure that the burden of proof is on me or why some one with no apparent experience with white folks barbecue vs nigger barbecue would believe any given stranger on the internet either way. i have a lot of experience eating barbecue but all I could do is relate stories of it to you, as far as evidence goes but i have not documented these experiences with photographs or anything. i will say that a lot of the little old timey white folks places (which account for the vast majority of bbq joints in sc) i have gone to that redneck folks swear by is some of the most boring, flavorless (especially the hash and rice and vegetable sides) fare i have ever paid for at an eating stablishment.

The value to people of being able to barbecue is almost certainly far higher than the value to other people of being able to stop them in order to prevent their feelings from being hurt.

The problem "I don't like you doing that in my presence" can be solved quite easily. The problem "I don't like you doing that anywhere, even when I can't see you doing it and am not discernibly affected by it in any way" cannot, but fortunately that problem is so small as to not be worth solving.

Malcolm X, Please...

If anything, barbecue's roots are Caribbean-Indian.

> In some parts of the US the BBQ "pit" is identical to a classic African design

It's also identical to the barbecue pits being used by the Native Americans in the Caribbean when Columbus arrived, long before the first African made it across the Atlantic (as slaves cooking recipes developed by White people using techniques designed by White people).

Even the word "barbecue" is based on a Native American word for the style of cooking.

Some etymologists believe that barbecue derives from the word barabicu found in the language of the Taíno people of the Caribbean and the Timucua of Florida,[1] and it has entered multiple European languages in the form of barbacoa. Specifically, the Oxford English Dictionary traces the word back to Haiti, that translates as a "framework of sticks set upon posts".[2] Gonzalo Fernández De Oviedo y Valdés, a Spanish explorer, was the first to use the word "barbecoa" in print in Spain in 1526 in the Diccionario de la Lengua Española (2nd Edition) of the Real Academia Española.[3] After Columbus landed in the Americas in 1492, the Spaniards had seemed to have found native Haitians roasting animal meat over a grill consisting of a wooden framework resting on sticks and a fire made underneath, that flames and smoke would rise and envelop the animal meat, giving it a certain flavor.[4] Strangely enough, the same framework was used as a means of protection against animal attacks at night.

Traditional barbacoa involves digging a hole in the ground and placing some meat (usually a whole goat) with a pot underneath it, so that the juices can make a hearty broth. It is then covered with maguey leaves and coal and set alight. The cooking process takes a few hours. Olaudah Equiano, an African abolitionist, described this method of roasting alligators among the Mosquito People (Miskito people) on his journeys to Cabo Gracias a Dios in his narrative, The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano.[5]
