Watch out, foodie police coming for you Lee...


Here is my cheapo setup that I take to the ALMS races up at Mosport every year. Sirloin, baked potatoes, corn on the cob. Delicious!

I bet you are, especially after impressing her with that non-smelly massive meat

I haven't had good grilled meat since someone stole the grill off our porch a couple months ago.

If you aren't from Texas/Memphis/Kansas City/Carolina's, you are not allowed to be a BBQ snob.

I had a setup that swung out from the fire in the home I grew up in. Try putting some foiled potatoes in the coals. Spuds and protein for the win!

Amen, Mr. frosh.

I think one of the greatest pleasures is, after staving off the bitter winter chill with a rousing barrel fire underneath a highway overpass, is to foil wrap some potatoes thrown out by the local supermarket, place them in the glowing embers of the fire, and go to bed underneath some moving blankets, knowing you'll have smoky, potatoe-y goodness for breakfast.

So, what's you etymolgy for BBQ? ;)

[Optimator]

BraveUlysses, you must remember, Massive Lee is from French Canada. Grilling might as well be barbecuing up there.

Grilling might as well be barbecuing up there.

Here's the etymolgy to start with:

1650s, from Amer.Sp. barbacoa, from Arawakan (Haiti) "framework of sticks," the raised wooden structure the Indians used to either sleep on or cure meat. Originally barbakoa "meal of roasted meat or fish" modern popular noun sense of "grill for cooking over an open fire" is from 1931.

Actually, there are many takes on the same theme accross the world.

For portuguese, barbecue/churascao is any meat grilled on charcoal. Sam as with most culture. In Texas, though, meat must be cooked for 7 to 8 hours to be called "barbecue". And for city boyz, a BBQ is just the actual device. Gaz, electric or charcoal...

[Massive Lee]

Another interpretation of barbacoa.

Interestingly, in slang French, the word "Barbaque" identify meats in general and probably comes from Spanish or Portuguese.
