No, that's the style of cooking but not the name of the dish. This is a specific name. Starts with a B, I'm pretty sure, and is a cajun term for backbone, I believe.

It's usually cooked during a "boucherie" which is the traditional killing and butchering of a hog that many Cajun family members take part in during the year to put up pork in their freezer.

I bet this is the word I was trying to come up with because I was thinking something like Bache. Pretty close to just be a coincidence. Thanks.

It was actually because there was NO freezers so it was a means of preventing meat from spoiling before it was eaten.

You kill one of your pigs and we split. Next time I'll kill one of mine...

I understand the history of it and something that's been done for hundreds of years long before modern refrigeration, but it still goes on today and believe me, much of that meat does go into freezers.
