According to Wikipedia barbeque sauce was likely created in the 17/1800s; according to cave paintings, cows existed, like, way before that. You're putting the cart before the horse, there, buddy.

Are you saying that a deity isn't capable of creating something for a purpose before that purpose exists? Cows were made to give people a reason to make BBQ sauce! ;)
I still stand that Pigs were created for BBQ first.

What about pork then? That goes good with sauce too.
For those of you in the Burlington area (Ontario, Canada), August 29th to September 1st:
Guelph's is in and around now too.
Re: the god thing - I'm an atheist but if there were a god she/he would have seen the whole BBQ sauce thing coming and probably put out the cows and pigs. Hey! Maybe that's what happened to the unicorns...
Ciao,

If this "God" character was as hung up on barbeque as you claim, why wouldn't rivers just run with the stuff? Why wouldn't the creatures just come right out slathered with it? Have you so little faith in man and his ingenuity and love of killing stuff just because it tastes good that this substance must be ascribed to some creator deity? For shame. For shame.
WHY DOESN'T IT RAIN BACON?! ANSWER ME THAT SMART GUY.

Good deployment of teleology here, Jal Dorak. I like it.

Because if it rained bacon, we would all eat ourselves to death, Roman-style! Duh.

The Horror!
Barbeque originated with Pork in the American Southeast. (It comes from the Taíno word "barabicu" - which is where we also get "Buccaneer." :) )
So it originally developed to cook seals, fish, and sea turtles.
The first BBQ sauces appeared in the 17th Century, again in the American Southeast.
From what I have been able to determine, Beef was not cooked that way until much latter. Mexican barbacoa is a completely different cooking and seasoning process.

well; BBQ is more than just sauce; most definitions require open flame; so there has been peeps burning meat over open flame for more centuries than there has been either domestication of animals or agriculture; BBQ can be rubs too not just sauce; main ingrediant of a rub is salt then mix in some other spices; even the most ancient of writings talk about salted meat cooked over open flame; BBQ is life with very very ancient roots.

For those interested in the history of BBQ, try this academic article instead of Wikipedia - it's much more reliable.

I love the different regional meanings of the word.

Completely different seem a stretch to me, since it has the same word derivation and also refers to the slow-cooking of meat. That's actually a fair pair of common points right there.
Of course, BBQ means different things to different people...
