Barbecue

It is thought that the word "Barbecue" originated as  Barbecoa. A process used to preserve meat in hot countries. The idea was to cook the meat indirectly with smoke from a wood fire.

Smoke Chamber

A chamber would be used and smoke from a fire would be channelled into it, the food would take several hours or even a couple of days to cook.

This process was also used to tenderize tough, cheap cuts of meat.

Charcoal BarbeSkew

Barbecuing or grilling

Cooking food over hot charcoal (direct cooking) should therefore be called grilling, but for the British the word "Barbecue" means "A gathering of people cooking, eating and drinking outside".

A compromise can be accomplished by following some of the recipes found on these pages.

Indirect Cooking

A covered barbecue can be set up so that the food cooks indirectly and takes several hours, this technique allows the meat to absorb more smoke, adds more flavour and gives you more time to enjoy the company of your friends.

This method also enables you to barbecue all the year round like the Canadians, where many a garage can be seen smoking on a Saturday afternoon, in the depths of winter.

Some Americans take their barbecuing very seriously with elaborate contraptions designed to smoke the meat slowly, thus large joints of meat or several chickens can be cooked at once. The Australians drink a lot of lager and sit around a hot plate.
