May 16: Experience the best of Dishfolio Barbecue this National Barbecue Day
Few things combine good company and well-prepared food as well as the backyard barbecue! May is considered National Barbecue Month, thanks mainly to the long Memorial Day weekend, with May 16 designated as National Barbecue Day. It reminds us that barbecue is not only just a big part of culinary innovation but also of culture and history.
The original barbecue sauce consisted of vinegar and
pepper. Today the most common ingredients include garlic and brown
sugar. Barbecue sauces have regional differences with many southern
cultures promoting their own style. However, more basic recipes for
any occasion are available regardless of geography. While any day
with good weather and better meat is a good day for a barbecue,
celebrating a specific National Barbecue Day with the best barbecue
recipes from our Dishfolio food bloggers only adds more to the
enjoyment of this unique cooking technique.
