Roasts & Grills

Putting meat straight on fire is the oldest cooking there is, and it has no birthplace: burnt bone turns up beside hearths wherever people and fire met, from Wonderwerk Cave a million years ago to the routine hearths of 300,000 years past. Nothing had to be invented — no pot, no oil, no recipe — which is why roasting and grilling appear independently on every continent people reached.
