In some parts of the country, such as Texas and Tennessee, your answer probably involves a method of slow-cooking with indirect heat. If you're a Northerner, you might just point to your backyard grill.
The word has different meanings, but a single origin.
When 17th-century Spanish explorers landed in the West Indies, they saw native people – the Arawakan – drying meat over a frame. The Arawakan called the wooden rack a barbacoa. The explorers borrowed the term.
Barbacoa soon came to name not only the frame but the process of cooking (not drying) meat. Now, of course, barbecue can name the cooking structure, the food, the cooking method, or the social occasion.

( I wish I had a chance to win this!! )
Here's my project that I created, an up cycled Christmas ribbon spool made into a gift box. Over the music ribbon is a layer of tissue paper aged with Distress ink and the twine was wrapped around in the spaces where the ribbon didn't meet.
I cut 2 butterflies out. Stuck my straight pin in through one butterfly and then glued the second one on top to hide the pin head. Then stuck the butterfly into the flower giving him a "floating" appearance.
Really Reasonable Ribbon - black, and music ribbon
Kaiser Kraft - pearls
Ranger - Distress Inkm stickles
Prima - flower
twine - misc.
Cricut - Paisley cartridge

What a creative (and gorgeous!) way to recycle! Love it!
I saw this on pinterest earlier and thought it was gorgeous! I didn't realize it was yours (I should be more observant on pinterest...)
Also - I'm totally a northerner. We "barbecue" all the time in our backyard. Later this week, I'm going to barbecue chicken skewers!
What a brilliant idea!!! I never would have thought of turning that into a gift box!!! I LOVE this!! What a pretty way to present a gift!!
