BBQ RULES

We are about to enter the summer and BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity, as it's the only type of cooking a 'real' man will do, probably because there is an element of danger involved.

When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:

Routine...

(1) The woman buys the food.
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes 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.
Here comes the important part:

(4) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.

More routine....

(5) The woman goes inside to organize 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 while he deals with the situation.

Important again:

(7) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE
WOMAN.

More routine....

(8) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils,< br>napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.
(9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.

And most important of all:

(10) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking
efforts.
(11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed 'her night off.' And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women....
 
yepp yepp thats the rules of bbqing.meane the womens workload is tripled everytime you bbq.
 
My wife and I have a party every 4th of July. I get the meat trays, a lawn chair by the grill, and a cooler within arms reach. :cowboy:
 
Don't forget the part where we clean the BBQ and put it away. :lol2:

But I can't complain as hubby grills a heck of a steak ;-) .

You are implying there is a problem here, chrisy. And I just do not see the problem.

You will have a lot of time to think it over while you recover from your injuries.

I have a few of those that I know, and many I don't know. I never turn away a cold brew, and they don't either. :D :D
 
It is apparent that "woman" is not properly trained around my home.

She did however buy all the paper plates, cups, bowls, and napkins in a recent travel to the big city. This will be for the memorial day cookout. Now all she needs to do is all the rest on your list Chrisy, plus kill, skin, and purge the two hogs.

There are some simple rules at the 4 day camp-out. #1 is that women don't cook. Ya'll may think I am kidding but I aint. #2 is women don't do dishes. Mind you most of it is paper plates and cups, but the pot, pan and utensil cleaning can be labor. I know cause I do it three times a day. #3 is no supervision.

Mother's Day my boss lady got a new hammock. She's going to use it a lot of Memorial Day. I don't like the bird dog thing to ensure I do it all just perfect. That is the biggest reason for rule #3.

If she wants to pour me a cup of coffee a few times over the weekend, that would be just fine.
 
I must confess that my husband is very handy in the kitchen. He seems to enjoy cooking. Now cleaning up the mess is another thing...
 
Yet another post that makes me appreciate my husband even more. He doesn't drink and he cooks. The only thing I do in preparation for a BBQ is make the BBQ sauce. I really am spoiled. :nod:

WTG Victoria. That is the most important part of it. There are many ways to cook the meat, but the sauce makes the meal. Great sauce can make anything taste good.

For the life of me, I can't see it either. Man does 5% of the work and gets all the credit. Where's the problem?

P.S. There is no crying in baseball and there are no rules in BBQ.
