Heard from a reliable source that Australian Bbq is sad.

The word barbecue (bbq) here is basically what you'd call a gas grill or a charcoal one (rarer because of the inconvenience). There are electric hotplates around but I don't consider them a bbq. To be decent you need to flame grill it...

There are places that do "american bbq" ie. smoked brisket - but that's not the norm in an Australian household. It's also not what most people here would call barbeque in a normal conversation ie. if someone asked you around for a barbecue you wouldn't automatically think they meant smoked brisket.

We do a decent a barbecue or barbeque... but the word isn't used the same way so it depends on what you mean by it.

We always called that a "cookout".
 
May have figured it out, did a bit of a dive on this, it might just be calling the beverage "root beer" vs "sarsaparilla".

Was shocked to learn that sarsaparilla is considered carcinogenic and not legal to use for root beer in the US.
Apparently they use a fake sarsaparilla extract. :rolleyes:
 
Interesting!

We had sarsaparilla in South Africa back in the day too.

I doubt it was artificial back then of course.

This angle is nice too. This one is for me but I always make the ones for guest and customers as good or better.


Plenty of folks today complimented the pizzas as well for the morning and lunch. Some guy ordered a Margerita today as well and said it was the best he's ever had..... And he seemed to have be a Chef too....


I mean I don't try not to do anything fancy or BS and just keep it simple. Use quality ingredients and cook at 950+-1,000+ degrees Fahrenheit.

Yeah nah BBQ is chicken thighs and legs and whole chickens, and turkey legs, and pork steaks and briskets and ribs and pork butts
 
AFAIK, in USA BBQ is a cooking style and/or type of cuisine, foods rubbed/brined and cooked low & slow usually with smoke.
I remember from watching Trailer Park Boys that Canadians (at least in Nova Scotia) seem to call a grill a "barbecue". I'm assuming Australia is using similar terminology.
Here, grilling is simply the term used to describe cooking foods on a grill. Or a BBQ, if you live in Nova Scotia or Australia apparently.
Which begs the question- do you guys BBQ on a BBQ? Or do you grill on a BBQ?

BBQ in Australia is generally flame grilled meat and vegetables (sometimes) etc. BBQ can mean slow cooked smoked brisket with some sort of overly sweetened bbq sauce washed down with a Dr Pepper but then we'll normally say American BBQ and qualify it.

We are right as usual :ROFLMAO: (because your definition is just foreigner/alien bs)
 
Pretty sure cooking over an open fire is pretty universal, both geographically and historically. So the cooking method is not in question, it's the terminology. And terminology is kinda dicey, like fries being chips and chips being crisps. We're all doing the same shit, just calling it different names. And so the world turns on its axis. Just imho.
