BBQ RULES
We are about to enter the summer and BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the art 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 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 hands 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.
(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.
(7) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
(8) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.
(9) After eating, the woman cleans and does the dishes.
(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.
Is this what happens at your house? At "Chez Rose"...it's a pretty even trade-off...although I admit I do most of the prep work. I always look forward to the "end result"...lip smackin' good BBQ!!
Any favorite recipes? Do share!
Happy grilling and thanks for rockin' with the coolest radio station on the planet...say it loud and say it proud...Double Power Q-94!
