Trivia
A historian at Barbecue Presbyterian Church, Ms. Cameron, says that a settler to the area named “Red” McNeill saw steam rising from a nearby creek. It reminded him of the meat-cooking pits he had seen in the Caribbean, and he named the creek Barbecue Creek.[dubious ][citation needed] The name became official in the early 1750s, as settlers began moving into the area.
