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, 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....

 

^ dude, that's every night in my house...

 

ain't that the frick'n truth...

men.

 

^ hee hee we still love ya C!

 

ha ha....

i can almost physically see you as you say it...with this look of utter disgust.

 

except for number 3. I don't know how to say this without sounding feral but I marinate my own meat

 

I enjoy cooking BBQ. Tell ya' up front if I ever expect to "get any",.... I go pick up the meat at the store, prepair(marinate) the meat, clean the grill, cook the meat and get my own beer.

 

That's just selfish and with that crappy attitude you and the missus will be bbq'ing without your mates because you're setting a terrible example that they'll have to live with

This is why we need a bbq union!

 

As you should.
