Subject: This puts us men down.....but it did make me chuckle!!

Written By: Gabble Ratchet on 09/13/04 at 5:49 am

DEFINITION OF A BBQ



It's the only type of cooking a real man will do. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:


1) The woman goes to the shops.

2) The woman makes the salad, vegetables and dessert.

3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man,who is lounging beside the grill, beer in hand.

4) The man places the meat on the grill.

5) The woman goes inside to organise the plates and cutlery.

6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer whilst he deals with the situation.

7) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman.

8) The woman prepares the plates and brings them to the table.

9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.

10) Everyone praises man and thanks him for his cooking efforts.

11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off."

12) And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women

13) The man concludes that he doesnt need to do anything else for the next couple of months

Not true. My husband does all the cooking EVERY NIGHT! Yeah, I'm spoiled. But, I do the cleaning. He is a wonderful cook but a messy one.  :-\\

Funny, but not true in my husband's case.  He will do almost all of the work when he barbecues...but the rest of the week the meal preparation is left to...moi!  :D

Since we started out talking about grilling... do you think gas grilling is really the same as cooking over wood or charcoal?

Personally I think if you go outside turn on the grill, throw the meat on, cook it for about 10 minutes,  that's just not the same.
It has to take all day or it just doesn't taste as good. Peferably cooked over some mesquite.

Hubby hasn't cooked on the grill since we ran out of gas.  :D But I do agree, mesquite is good.
