According to the Smithsonian Institute, Columbus observed Natives in the Caribbean slow-cooking meat (such as they had meat). He named the process barbecue. The Spanish introduced pigs to barbecue, and spread the idea around. English, Germans and French contributed binger-based and mustard sauces; and local cooks, free and slave, added according to their imagination. I think it is fair to say that barbecue is an authentic collaborate of the diverse peoples of the Americas. Barbecue on the 4th of July is as American and Turkey and corn on the cob on Thanksgiving.
