But he soon realized that barbecue warranted its own thorough examination. While writing his first book, Soul Food: The Surprising Story of an American Cuisine One Plate at a Time (The University of North Carolina Press, 2013), Miller considered including a chapter on barbecue, since it’s common for soul food restaurants to offer barbecue options, and so many Black-owned barbecue spots have soul food sides on the menu.
