Barbecue, as the name suggests, is a way of cooking ingredients over fire. This cooking method has a long history. Many cities in China now have their own unique barbecue methods. In terms of taste, "Jinzhou Barbecue" is quite particular.
"Jinzhou Barbecue" is a municipal intangible cultural heritage of Jinzhou. As for whether the barbecue here is authentic, you can only taste it yourself.
Many friends come here because they admire "Jinzhou Barbeque". When they come, they will go to Linghe Night Market, Linghai Jiuhuashan Barbecue Food Street and the city's barbecue restaurants to taste it.
"Jinzhou BBQ" grills everything. Beef and mutton, pigeon, quail, oysters, clams, green vegetables, etc., and even steamed buns and dried tofu can be grilled.
It must be said that the history of Jinzhou barbecue is not long. It originated from some clever outsiders grilling mutton skewers on the streets in the 1980s. Later it became popular in the streets and alleys of the city.
Nowadays, there are barbecue restaurants in many cities, and many of them are directly named after "Jinzhou BBQ". I don’t know what their methods are, but the existence of these shops is an alternative promotion of the city of Jinzhou.
Jinzhou barbecue was first introduced by people from Xinjiang, and they followed suit. As time went by, there were more varieties of barbecue. The situation at that time was like this. There were many unemployed people in Jinzhou, and they had nothing to do. At night Just set up a street stall on the roadside to sell barbecue (the urban management officers arrested them during the day). The more people selling, the more people would eat. Later, the street vendors earned some money and rented a store to open a barbecue restaurant. In this way, the streets were full of people. It's a barbecue restaurant. Because it's a seaside city, it mainly serves seafood. This is unmatched in the mainland. To be authentic, it has to be Xinjiang.
In fact, the debate about what is authentic and what is not is meaningless. No matter how authentic something is, it may not suit your taste. As long as it is something you like to eat and you think it tastes good, you will also like it even if it is a roadside stall. And if you don’t like to eat the food from five-star restaurants, it’s no different from garbage. Don't be too entangled in so many useless things, just choose the right ones that suit you. Don't care about what others say, and don't care about boring things.
Why do I have this idea? Although I am also from Liaoning, barbecue has its own characteristics in various places. How can there be anything authentic? Jinzhou itself is not a region that can produce native barbecue culture. It is just because it brings together the Northeast The characteristics of grilled skewers have made it famous.
No matter which region the barbecue is in, as long as it suits your taste and appetite, it will be authentic.
Chinese barbecue originated in Xinjiang and developed in Jinzhou
It is difficult to agree with everyone. Jinzhou barbecue has its own characteristics and charm. As for whether it is the most authentic, you will only know after trying it.
I dare not judge whether Jinzhou BBQ is authentic, but Jinzhou BBQ is found in many places in the south, which shows that Jinzhou BBQ has a certain level of awareness.
