    I’m not arguing about its origins, I’m saying you’re playing Family Feud (aka Family Fortune overseas) and the host asks you to name a type of American cuisine.

    Is “bbq/barbeque” on the board? I’d say it’s probably #2 or #3 after Hamburgers (arguably bbq), hot dogs (arguably the same), fried chicken / wings (arguably the same), or pizza (arguably not “American” if bbq isnt either)

    Others would be, TexMex, gumbo, cheesesteak, Thanksgiving dinner.

    Anything else - deep-dish, pie a la mode, eggs benedict, candied yams, new England chowder, NY strip steak, Boston creme pie, a cheeseball… are way more niche than bbq
