Southern BBQ was invented because of this. Slaves would often be given what was considered the “worst” portions of livestock - ribs, brisket, etc. They used seasonings and low-and-slow cooking to break down these tough cuts into something more edible and it kind of took off from there.
It’s the one I’m most familiar with at least and yes, absolutely delicious and simple just takes time and effort :) I suppose that is true with most art forms anyways, cooking is as much art as science.
