This tangy and sweet concoction we know as barbecue sauce has its roots steeped in the history of the United States. It is believed to have originated in the 17th century when, after the Spaniards introduced the natives of the Carolinas to pigs, the locals started experimenting with tart, vinegar-based sauces to preserve and flavor the meat. Over the centuries, as settlers moved westward, the sauce evolved, taking on local flavors, such as tomatoes in the Midwest. Today, every region from Memphis to Kansas City, and even down to Texas, has its own unique version of barbecue sauce, each boasting a distinct blend of flavors that reflects the history and culture of its people.
