ORAL HISTORY
About the Southern BBQ Trail
The Southern Foodways Alliance and Jim ‘N Nick’s Bar-B-Q created the Southern BBQ Trail in an effort to document the history, tradition, and culture of bbq throughout the South. This is an on-going project. There will be regular additions to the oral history archive, as well as to the locations on our interactive map.
The Southern BBQ Trail is also a resource for cultural tourists who would like to hit the road in search of authentic and unique culinary experiences. We hope you will use the BBQ Trail as your guide.
