We are fukking amazing!!!!!https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbecue_sauce
Most American barbecue sauces can trace their roots to a sauce common in the eastern regions of North Carolina and South Carolina.[3] The simplest and the earliest, it was popularized by enslaved Africans who also advanced the development of American barbecue, and originally was made with vinegar, ground black pepper, and hot chili pepper flakes. It is used as a "mopping" sauce to baste the meat while it is cooking and as a dipping sauce when it is served. "Thin, spicy, and vinegar based," it penetrates the meat and cuts the fats in the mouth, with a noticeably tarter flavor than most other barbecue sauces.[7]
Pitmasters: The Black Southern Americans Who Invented Barbecue As We Know It
Barbecue is, first and foremost, a deeply African American food. I use the phrase “African American” (rather than just “African”, “American”, or “Black”) in order to emphasize the complex origins of this cuisine. Barbecue took its first breath in the early 1500s, when enslaved Africans found inspiration in the local Native American cuisine. As Africans sought to preserve their autonomy in the face of extreme persecution, they developed a food culture unlike any other. Because of this, barbecue is intensely political; it becomes an invaluable tool for tracing the struggles of Black Americans throughout history.
Like so many aspects of American culture — jazz, “street style” and common slang — barbecue’s African roots are often erased while white Americans receive the credit. The Huffington Post points out that of the thirty-six Barbecue Hall of Fame inductees, only five of them are Black. Additionally, the “Epic Barbecue Tour of Texas” by Eater fails to include even one Black-owned barbecue joint on its list. So blinded are these critics by eurocentric attitudes that they fail to recognize the original inventors of barbecue in their reviews.

Soul Food is the best food on the planet and everybody of all races and ethnicity tries to copy and compete with Soul Food.
Soul Food even has it's own movie:
Can you show me a movie called "Mexican Food," "Chinese Food," or "Italian Food."

So why ain't we united to fix our problems with under-capitalization? Why we not linkin'? Why we in a thread tryna exclude subgroups of soul food? What's the problem? Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why, why can't we live together...
Why...? Why?
Yo, you used to be HewittAve years ago right?Over seasoned, salted and fried.
Still very tasty, but not as refined as some European or Asian cuisine.
That is the main difference, I’d put take away Chinese food up against soul food, but when you start going to actual Chinese or HK restaurants in their respective countries, it’s a wrap.
I’d personally put Japanese grub over them all; both the sloppy and refined stuff. Also Italian refined food in Italy is baby GOAT tier. Made me do thein real life.
Plus Greek, Turkish, Lebanese, Moroccan food…smh. Mans hungry now.

Ay Chère see if you can grow Purple Hills next season. It's in the same family as Black Eyes.I'm literally growing black eyed peas, collards, and mustards.
I cook everything: Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Spanish, Dominican, Italian, French, etc, bc my man is deathly allergic to onions, but I also try to re-invent my native cuisine, soul food. I come from a long lineage of chefs and married into a family that had owned a soul food restaurant back in the day.
How do you get 'bored' of your own food? I never heard nobody of no other ethnicity say that weird shyt. I'm starting to think we have another issue...
Man this thread fenna make me do a series of art on Soul Food.
We really are the shyt quiet as kept and that's a problem. We should be big headed and we should be proud of our BLACKNESS ....Ain't no people on the planet been through what we been through and still produced the best of the best.

Plus we can use healthier fats and swap out fatty smoked meats for leaner smoked meats like Turkey tails, necks, wings, drumsticks.

If it’s a lie, then we fight on that lie.
The mother fukkers talking about soul food don't consist of Creole and in the same fukking breathe want to mix Mongolian beef and beijing shyt. Like be fukking for realIdk if I can co-sign Caribbean food being considered “soul food” that’s wild to me as a Miami yard man.
But I can agree with creole/cajun being soul food
Stacking soul food up against entire races like Asians is also wild af
