Word origin
The term 'barbecue' originated from the Spanish word 'barbacoa', which was used by the Taíno people of the Caribbean to refer to a framework of sticks set upon posts. This framework was used to cook meat over a fire. The practice of barbecuing has evolved over time, becoming a popular method of cooking in many cultures around the world. In the United States, barbecue is often associated with outdoor gatherings and social events, where friends and family come together to enjoy grilled food.
