How Much Do You Know About Barbecue Sauce?

While there are so many of us that use barbecue sauce so often, there are many people who know very little about the stuff. Everyone seems to know some of the hotbeds of grilling sauce world, like Kansas City, Chicago, Memphis, or Texas. They know that in the south they are serious about their sauces as well, but they know very little outside of that.

Here is a little history lesson about barbecue sauce. The term barbecue actually was coined by Hernando De Soto when he landed in the Caribbean and discovered the natives cooking meat over open flames on big wooden racks. He called it "Barbacoa" which is an Arwak Indian term that translates to, " to cook over coals." It is funny how some guy cooking his bratwurst in the parking lot of Lambeau Field in Green Bay Wisconsin before a Packer game can be connected with the great explorer De Soto and the Arwak Indians!
