BBQ: It ain't a verb

[triangleforge]

BBQ isn't a word...it is an abbreviation.

The word barbecue is both a noun and a verb, although only the verb useage is officialy recognized.

Examples

Traditional verb usage recognized by dictionary: I am going to barbecue some chicken tonight.

Meat Lovers usage, not recognized by dictionary, but what do those book learnin' morons know anyhow: Lets go get some barbecue for dinner. or Carolina barbecue kicks ass on Texas barbecue.

I hear they got one a them dictionaries in the libary.

Is all that fluffery hiding meat of some sort? 

I use mine less in the winter but still did 45lbs of pork but in Jan when temps were bout 15 degrees. Makes for a whole lot of charcoal usage over the course of 18 hours. And beer. Cuz you can't have the smoker goin without beer.

True dat.   

Can be somewhat of a "problem" with long-term BBQ sessions, trashed by the time the food's done.

anybody see food wars last night?

Lockhart Texas.  sibling rivalry over brisket and sausage.  I was drooling within 30 seconds.

can't find brisket in PA that's slow cooked on the grill.

Told the husband we took up the wrong hobby.  If we flew a plane, we could fly in for a day, fill a suitcase and be home late that afternoon!

There's that famous carpetbagger hostility.  You should go relax, eat some sub-par BBQ and...

your manufacture a car, you don't car.
you make a sald, you don't salad some lettuce.

... as we say in the South, beer your liver.

Just back from the doc, and after years of hearing good news about my blood work and eating whatever the hell I wanted, the bastid tells me my cholesterol is teh suck. Bad enough that even I noticed the numbers were way weird. 

Enjoy your BBQ, folks. 

OTH, he did tell me to drink more red wine...

sigh. i miss miss memphis bbq already.

Nothing annoys me more than hearing someone saying their having a "barbecue" this friday, and mean burgers, steaks, weenies, brats, whatever. No you are not. You are grilling out.

The only way you can verb bbq, is to be make bbq.

Now living in Texas, i can have bad version of memphis barbecue at the local "red hot and blue", or i have to eat brisket. I only consider pulled pork to be bbq, everything else is meat prepared in a bbq fashion.

Carpetbagger, huh? Well welcome back 1865 haven't seen you in a while, but you know what? your satirical cartoons are still going strong!

This was a recent feast off the BBQ:



Whole fryer chicken, rubbed with spices, can of beer crammed up the rump in the official beer can chicken holder thingy, smoked with apple wood for four hours.

It was gooooooooood. Hot pink almost all the way through, literally fell apart.

Anyone else notice they used California as the symbol for Florida

actually, being called a yankee doens't really bother me as much as anyone who automatically dismisses me based on something about me. (unless it's girls talking about girl issues, they can disregard my opinion all they want[i also won't get into those conversations])

[junior varsity]
