Barbecue in America began in Virginia. Virginia owns the birthright to all barbecue styles in America. Memphis, North Carolina, (both Piedmont style and Eastern style), South Carolina, Georgia, Kansas City, Central Texas, East Texas, and Alabama styles all began in Virginia and splintered off Virginia style barbecue.

Probably is an unpopular opinion but it is also fact, not opinion. European settlers in Virginia in the early 1600's learned some techniques from the Powhatan tribe which morphed into the start of "American BBQ". So says Joseph R. Haynes, author of "Virginia Barbecue: A History" which came out a few years ago. Was a good read.

As a Virginian, I want to be abundantly clear on this. Virginia Style barbecue sucks, regardless of its role in the genesis of more prevelant stylesXL & MM BGE, 36" Blackstone - Newport News, VA

This website on Texas BBQ doesn't say anything about Virginia.
I realize that doesn't make it right. But I think that the German and Czech influence in Central Texas is real. Probably a melding of what migrated down from Virginia with what was brought over from Europe.

BBQ originated with people who:
A. Had little to choose from.
B. Knew next to nothing about nutrition.

Being from Central TX I ask the perennial question- what type of BBQ do you have?

Just Vote- What if you could choose "none of the above" on an election ballot? Millions of Americans do just that, in effect, by not voting. The result in 2016: "Nobody" won more counties, more states, and more electoral votes than either candidate for president. -

Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

I was looking at some latent heat exchangers for our lab. They use a rotating wheel with desiccant. Decided against it because of the methylene chloride in the exhaust is so high.

They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests. - George Carlin -
