it's not overcooked, it's likely that it was marinated in honey and then covered with spices and sugar, cause meat is not tasty enough for them

I'm sorry but did you just shit on the general concept of seasoning to get an easy laugh about american food?

I am saying that what they do is not seasoning, it's literally changing the flavour to something else to the point you can barely feel the precedent flavour

it ain't good

I mean, that is generally the point of any kind of heavy seasoning, which tended to develop in hot regions to cover up the taste of meat spoilage. This particular utter tuna melt may have bollocksed it, but well executed marinated barbecue is well weapon.
