Etymology of BARBECUES
The word "barbecue" has its roots in the Spanish word "barbacoa", which was derived from the Taino Indigenous language spoken by the Taíno people of the Caribbean. The Taíno word was "barbakoa", referring to a wooden structure on which meat and other foods were cooked over a fire. When Spanish explorers encountered this cooking method during their expeditions, they adopted the term "barbacoa" and brought it back to Europe. Over time, the term evolved and spread to different languages and cultures, eventually becoming "barbecue" in English.
