BBQ Protocol - rules of engagement

Tofu is not meat - it does not enter the sacred space of the BBQ Beer is an important BBQ accessory, it keeps the operator cool, appropriately flavours the meat and in the unlikely event of a localised fire provides adequate extinguishing capability. BBQ's can never have female names they are male genus and must have macho hombre names BBQ's are not pink, meat is pink and then you cook it The man child must be brought before the BBQ to learn the sacred ways before he reaches the age of 16 summers. BBQ's must be powered by fire - hot burning coals are OK but fire is the key distinguishing feature that differentiates a BBQ from an appliance. Guests must not take the utensils in hand unless the host requests them to do so. You don't put your hands on his wife so don't touch his tongs. BBQing in Speedos is not cool. BBBQing with a girly apron is not cool BBQing with one of those aprons that has fake boobs is just wrong BBQing on your own is unAustralian, if you are going to fire it up you need to have a mate on hand to take over in case you go down half way through a rib eye fillet.

  • Sausage Protocol

    Thanks Emma, the only thing I would like to add is that if you do want to have left-over or as you put it hang over food, the sausages really need to be your traditional variety. While the fancy schmancy gourmet sausages actually don't taste too bad, they don't generally front up too well for second round.
    Six hours of drinking with my mates, I would probably be struggling to feel peckish so your doing well if your searching for left overs then.

  • Food Protocol

    You MUST cook too much food when you have a BBQ. These is nothing better than grabbing a cold snag from the fridge because you're "feeling peckish" after drinking for 6 hours with your mates. Any left over BBQ is now classified as "hang over food" becasue you'll need it in the morning!
