Time for Barbecue!
Below is a fun fact about barbecue.
Beyond being able to say that "barbecue" is a European word, no one really knows the true origins of the word. In attempting to spell a Taino Indian word for their method of cooking, the Spanish came up with "barbacoa". The French have a saying "barbe a queue" which means "whiskers to tail", and roast mutton in Romanian is translated as "barbec". Pick whichever suits you best!
