i wonder what your thoughts are on BBQ's

i've always preferred the classic Hot Coals method, and while it can be frustrating in that the only way to lower the temp and stop your Belly of Pork burning to a crip is to pour some beer on the coals, i do prefer the whole ritual of lighting it and waiting for the coals to catch/burn etc. Plus i'm told you get that "authentic bbq flavour" whenj cookijg on coals.

But, my Brother-in-law insists that the "authentic bbq flavour" is only caused by meat juices dripping onto the heat source, and then the smoke rising back up and flavouring the meat. he argues that the coals themselves do not flavour the meat. He argues that Gas heated elements give just as good a flavour, are much less wasteful land give you much more controll on the cooking heat. Meaning you get better results

it makes sense to me but i refuse to risk ridicule of my fellow English Men when i wheel out the gas barbie. surely half a can of lighter fluid a few broadsheet newspapers and some kindling (or at least those self lighting bags from sainsburies) give better results?

Yeh. Use coal. Throw an onion in the coals...and throw some muthafuckin' skirt steak on that bitch

[Savage Clone]

Barbecue is disgusting.

[SonicBebs]

BBQ'd salmon with lemon and dill is not disgusting

[Pookie]

Either way gives you cancer.

The BBQ debate, is so widely varied and entirely dependant upon style and taste, that you should ignore anyone offering proper advice, most of all, advice given by your 'fellow English Men' who know fuck-all on the subject to begin with.

That said, what are you opinions on cheesecake? I think that it's a delicious kind of pie.

i've said this many times before and will continue from the afterlife, but it's called grilling

for flavor, charcoal is the way to go-- lump chacoal, not those shitty industrial briquettes (or whatever they might be called in your island). i'm referring to this:

if you have a smoking grill (kettle type) you can even smoke things a little bit rather than char everything with flames

Even back 25 years ago when I ate meat as an American Young Person, I found this method to be the grossest of all preparations. The sauce is vile, and I'm sorry, but anything that requires that you revel in your own filth enough to require fucking BIBS AND TOWELS at mealtime is not for me. I don't want to do it and I don't want to watch it. Gross.

Also, I cannot separate the "grilling activity" from lame-assed sporto-jock-dad Middle American Sunday, which is about as lame s it gets for spending one's free time in my book.

I don't even like grilled vegetables. Not for me, this style of Adult Baby Eating.

[floatingslowly]

Yeah! Fuck sports!

This thread is chock full'o barbarians.

[floatingslowly]

Hey, did you know soy gives you tits??

[Savage Clone]

So does southern food, eventually.

[floatingslowly]

Oh, so this is about THE SOUTH, is it, yanqui-blood?

I had a Kolache this morning. It was stuffed with ground_beast.

I don't care what symbols guy says, you may call it grilling in America but here it is called a BBQ.

I prefer using coals but gas can be good too as you do have more control over the heat.

[EVOLghost]

I think the general idea behind BBQ is cooking outside.

I went to a "BBQ" party...and there was no barbecue sauce. Nor ribs...or anything barbecue for that matter.

It also makes food taste horrible.
One is not a "hater" simply because one finds something gross or unappealing. One has an opinion. That is all.

And yes, I am white. Whatever.

[floatingslowly]

Hey, let's keep the racism out of this, cracker.

[SonicBebs]

fuck bbq sauce, except maybe english mustard and some ketchup for the burgers. (Is cheese a sauce?)

if you look at the quote i originally responded to, you'll see i posted you the hater tshirt for your expressed hatred of american dads, not your taste in food or you inability to properly grill asparagus. different things altogether.

that book is hilarious and it's really not about race-- it's more about class and certain attitudes that people think makes them "different". it also mentions "the wrong kind of white people" who, as you can imagine, shop at walmart, drink unironic sodas and mass-produced beer, and grill pork on sundays. e.g.:

http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008...op-references/

http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2009...ronic-tattoos/

http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2009...wear-ed-hardy/

etc.

lighten up, o furious one.

On the contrary. I've yet to see a thread become less interesting following a sudden racist outburst. It's the mother of all bumps.
