2 雅思口语part2话题参考文本

I am from Texas so I am going to talk about Barbecue sauce which is a sauce used as a condiment or topping for meat cooked in the barbecue cooking style, including pork or beef ribs and chicken. It is a very popular condiment in the Southern United States and is used on many other foods as well.

I can’t remember the first time I tried BBQ sauce because it must have been a long time ago and the sauce is sold in supermarket, grocery stores and literally everywhere and there are also hundreds of different brands.

The ingredients for the sauce vary quite a bit, but most include vinegar, tomato paste, or mayonnaise with onions, spices and black peppers.

The sauce is important because number one it makes cooking meat easier so you don’t have to spend hours in the kitchen trying to perfect the recipes and worry about if the meat is too salty, spicy, bland, or sweet. Most of the sauce comes premade in a bottle and all you need to do is just put it on the meat. Also, the sauce is about culture just like in China, people need a good peanut sauce for hotpot. The sauce was invented as early as the 19th century because cooking wasn’t easy and if you wanted to make meat delicious, you needed to bring a lot of small bottles for salt, sugar, spice etc. Therefore, the answer is just one bottle of BBQ sauce and you can cook as you go. That is why the sauce is especially popular in the countryside because it fits perfectly for the lifestyle there.
