    The taste of some barbecue foods in the north and south of China is quite different, mainly due to the following factors:

    Geographical and climatic differences: There are significant differences in geography and climate between the north and south of China, which directly affects the choice of local ingredients and cooking methods. The humid climate in the south is suitable for growing plant-based ingredients such as fruits and vegetables, so southern barbecue focuses more on grilled vegetables, fruits, and seafood.

    The northern climate is dry, which is suitable for the development of animal husbandry, so the northern barbecue is more focused on grilled meat ingredients.

    Flavor preferences and eating habits: People in the North and South have different tastes and preferences for food. Southerners prefer light, sweet and sour flavors, and like to use sauces, spices, and pickles to add flavor to food.

    Northerners, on the other hand, prefer heavy flavors and like to use spices such as chili pepper and garlic to pursue the spicy and salty taste of food.

    Cultural inheritance and local characteristics: There are also differences between the north and the south in the inheritance and development of barbecue culture. There are many long-standing barbecue traditions in the southern region, such as roast meat in Guangdong and roast suckling pig in Fujian, which have unique local characteristics in terms of taste and cooking methods.

    In the northern region, there are unique barbecue delicacies such as roasted whole lamb and kebabs, which occupy an important place in the food culture of the northern region.

    It should be noted that the difference in taste of barbecue food between the north and south of China is not absolute, and there are some commonalities and exchanges. With the development of transportation and cultural exchanges, the tastes of barbecue food from the north and south have gradually merged and influenced each other, and some local barbecue foods have also become popular throughout the country.

    Because the weather in the north is colder, the barbecue is generally spicy. The weather in the south is warmer and wetter, so the barbecue is relatively light, and many of them are seafood-based. This has resulted in a huge difference in taste between the north and the south.

    The difference between the north and south of China barbecue:

    When it comes to our northern barbecue, northern barbecue is mainly meat-based, in addition to meat, there are some other foods, such as grilled vegetable rolls, grilled eggs, grilled hairy eggs, etc., but to say that the most distinctive in northern barbecue, it should be roasted kidneys, and the roasted kidneys in barbecue are also well known to many outsiders. Northern barbecue is generally salty. When grilling, some cumin grains will be sprinkled, but it should be noted that it is a natural force, not a natural surface, because the natural green top is grilled by fire, which will stick to the food, so it will taste very similar.

    If there are any characteristics in the north, it should be the Northeast sauce, in the barbecue, the Northeast sauce should also be used more, because if you roast corn or roasted tofu and other foods, you can brush some Northeast sauce. Personally, my favorite Northeast barbecue is the grilled vegetable rolls, because every time I guess the boxing, brush it with a layer of sauce after the test, and then bake it for a while and eat it in my mouth, which feels really delicious. But to be affected by the barbecue in the south, the main thing is that it is mainly spicy, not at all like the barbecue in our north, which is mainly fresh, and the barbecue in the south is mainly in Chongqing.

    Southern barbecue also has many characteristics, and tofu is one of the characteristics of southern barbecue. In the process of grilling dried tofu, you can add some leeks or pickles, and then continue to grease them, roast them until they are bubbly, sprinkle them with some seasonings and eat. The most popular barbecue in the south, in addition to roasted tofu, also has a feature, that is, roast pig brain, when this roast pig brain just came out, many people saw it, think that the roast pig brain is very special, so I want to buy it and taste it, as the saying goes, what to eat to make up for what, if the brain is not good to eat pig brain, is it possible to make up for it?

    So they all bought it to try it, and now there are many food stalls in the north that sell roast pig brains. But some pig brains are very delicious, and one pig brain is particularly undelicious. If there is any difference between the north and the south skewers, it is that the northern skewers are filled with cumin grains, and the southern skewers are placed with cumin noodles, and the two are different.

    Moreover, the northern skewers are now replaced with iron skewers, and the southern skewers are still wooden skewers, and only a small part of them are iron skewers. On top of that, the northern skewers are served with skewers. But the South will help you remove the skewers and serve the meat directly.

    This makes it less of a skewer to eat.

    Generally speaking, I prefer to eat northern barbecue, which has a heavier taste, because the north is more dry and cold, and it is suitable for making barbecue food.

    China has a vast territory, and due to the different regions and living habits, there are many big differences between the north and the south. As we all know, the eating habits, living habits, and things grown in the north and south ......It's not the same. Just like the difference between the geography of the north and the south, the taste of barbecue food in the north and south is also very different, and the atmosphere of the skewers and the barbecue food are also very different.

    I'm a barbecue lover and especially love spicy ones. I don't think it's enough to divide the barbecue into north and south. Because they are close to the sea in the southeast, their barbecue there is mainly seafood, with a relatively light taste and not heavy ingredients; The southwest region is close to the mountains, and they have a lot of barbecue there, such as bugs, pig gums, ......Only you can't think of it, there's nothing you can't do.

    Then the barbecue in the northwest region is mainly lamb skewers, and they are often freshly grilled, which is delicious, but there are fewer types; The Northeast region is dominated by beef and mutton, such as roast trotters, kidneys, ......The flavor is also on the heavy side, and you can smell the smell of barbecue from a long distance, which will make your mouth water, and you won't forget it for a long time after eating!

    When we are masturbating in the north, we don't need a menu, we communicate directly with the boss, and then determine what we eat, a typical northern accent, which is more bold. In the process of making skewers, most of us regard the barbecue stall as our own home, chatting and talking about our hearts, I feel very humane and lively; Southerners are more reserved and reserved, maybe for them, barbecue is just barbecue, although there will be communication, but not like us northerners.

    1. Differences in taste.

    Northerners have a relatively heavy taste, and they also love some heavy barbecue, and when they take the exam, they usually put more salt and more chili peppers, and even some people will stick a thick layer of chili noodles when they eat them.

    This may be difficult for most southerners to accept, because their taste is relatively light, and they are more interested in the deliciousness of the ingredients themselves, although they will also use some spices, but the seasonings are not the protagonist, but only play a role in adding bricks.

    Second, the difference in ingredients.

    The difference between the north and the south is also reflected in the ingredients used in the barbecue. For northerners, they are keen to eat meat and drink a lot of wine, so when they eat, if there is no meat, they feel tasteless and unpleasant.

    Compared with northerners, southerners prefer a variety of ingredients, such as fish balls, fish and shrimp, sausages, snails and so on.

    Differences in how to eat. The difference in the barbecue is the difference in the way of eating. When the northerners finish the barbecue, they will directly serve it to the guests, and when the northerners eat it, they will hold a beer in one hand, and then eat it in one hand with a bamboo stick, and the way to eat is more heroic.

    Northerners eat boldly, eating barbecue is no exception, to eat meat and drink wine to enjoy, the taste should also be full, so the taste is generally heavier, barbecue seasoning to be full, so that it tastes, but southerners eat are relatively light, pay attention to petty bourgeoisie, barbecue is also to the point, seasoning will not put a lot, northerners feel that there is no taste, too light, no taste barbecue how can there be a soul?

    There is also a point that northerners eat barbecue are big kidneys, pork and mutton are large chunks, with beer, to eat and drink until cool, but southern barbecue will eat some vegetables, not necessarily all-you-can-eat, eat is a mood, not necessarily to drink and meat food, this is the biggest difference between the south and the north barbecue, northerners said, eat barbecue without meat, is it still called barbecue? I can't get enough at all! But southerners also say they can't get used to eating barbecue from the north!

    There is also a way to eat barbecue, the north is directly grilled and eaten after picking it up, which is commonly known as skewers, but the south is very fine, will draw the barbecue from the skewers, put together and eat slowly with chopsticks, which makes northerners eat without feeling at all, and will be disgusted with this huge trouble!
