From an academic perspective, I'd like to learn more about the role of barbecue in westward expansion and perceptions of Manifest Destiny. Were settlers lured to the west by rumors of barbecue along the Missouri River? Did barbecue play a pivotal role in winning the Indian Wars? Did Texas secede from Mexico over cultural clashes with barbecue enchiladas? This is all interesting stuff.
