Event Details

The history of American barbecue begins with the founding of the country, and the original pitmasters that were enslaved were critical to the popularity and spread of barbecue across the United States. During this talk, Debra Freeman will explore the origins of American barbecue and the legacy of Black pitmasters throughout the centuries, and how their contributions show up on our plates today.
