Chapter 1Concept of Grilling
1.1 Background
Grilling dates back to the caveman age, when one of our forefathers found that keeping meat directly on an open fire for a prolonged period cooked the food. Cave dwellers most certainly came across creatures that had died in forest fires. They discovered that the scavenged meat was more delicious and simpler to chew than the fresh meat. Anthropologists are unable to agree on when our forefathers learned to prepare and cook the food. Cooking may have started somewhere around 300,000 years ago, when the fire was discovered, according to current figures.
Gratitude to our increasing culinary interest and need to know about the foods our forefathers used to eat, the heritage of barbecue is becoming a little easier to research. There was so little information about the origins of barbecue twenty years earlier. Until recently, culinary historians have been hard at work delving into the origins of barbecue.
Barbecue's popularity in the United States has its origins in the Caribbean; it is believed to have started with the Caribbean Taino Indians, who used a structure constructed of green sticks to smoke or dry meat. In his travel story, The Barbecue Feast: or, the Three Pigs of Peckham, Broiled Under an Apple-Tree , Edward Ward recorded one of the earliest English tales of barbecue.
For many Americans, grilling is a source of honor. Barbecue competitions, which began in the 1980s, now attract audiences of hundreds and thousands of spectators. Each state has its own distinct barbecue style, which varies in everything from the meat used to the sauce, the side dishes, and even the kind of wood used to cook it over.
Barbecue, like so many other distinctly "American" foods and cuisine, can be traced back to colonial America in the 18th century, especially the colonies along the south-eastern seaboard.
Eastern Carolina-style pit barbecue is a direct successor of the first American barbecue, starting with the entire hog and culminating in a magnificent mess of pulled pork doused in vinegar sauce and eaten with coleslaw on the side on a hamburger bun for as much as 14 hours over coals.
While the pioneers moved west, cultural differences emerged, resulting in 4 distinct barbecue types today. Western, Eastern, and South Carolina-style Carolina barbecue differ mostly in the sauce.
Kansas City is located in the heart of BBQ nation. There's a little bit of all there, toopork and beef, shoulders and ribs, and so on. The sauce is what ties it together.
Texas has often preferred steak. Usually, brisket, dry-rubbed and smoked over mesquite with a tomato-based sauce served on the table, almost as an afterthought.
1.2 What Is Grilling?
Cooking food on a rack over a heat source, such as ceramic briquettes heated by gas fires or charcoal fire, is known as grilling. Direct heat easily sears the external part of the cooked product, resulting in distinct sturdy, roasted, and sometimes gently charred tastes, as well as a pleasant crust. When food is cooked over medium heat, it also produces a smokier flavor.
1.3 What Is a Grill?
A grill is a cooking device with a grate or an open rack as the cooking surface and a fire source beneath. The heat source may be open flame (charcoal or gas) or electric, depending on the form of the grill.
Since food is cooked straight on the grill's grate or rack, the best foods for grilling are poultry and meats, though firm pork, shrimp, and vegetables may also be cooked on the grill.
