Episode: Ep3767_BardsFM - The American Brand: The Culture of Outdoor Barbecue
Description: We take grilling as a normal part of our lives. The history of its evolution, however, is a reminder of our sense of community, freedom and the roots of connecting to the land. From the first recorded political barbecue by George Washington in 1792, to the Battle of Bull Run that became known as the "picnic battle", to the development of the charcoal briquette and Henry Ford's "picnic kits", grilling and backyard barbecue evolved to be an expression of American life. At its root are the principles of brotherly love... serving others, breaking bread and building bridges.Â
