BBQ's are ALOT of work!
I never understood why people say that bbq'ing is so easy???
My dh thinks he does it all on a day like today..NOPE!
So far I have..
Made a salad.
Made dip.
Cut up and marinaded tons of chicken.
Boiled up sausages.
Shaped hamburgers.
Made a relish platter.
Set up hot dogs.
Got all the utensils ready.
Went back and forth to the yard a dozen times.
And not to mention..shopped for all of this said stuff.
He cooks..end of story. Sometimes I think if I just made a dinner inside, it would be easier!

Re: BBQ's are ALOT of work!
I think it's easy for just a couple of people but a big BBQ is a LOT of work!!! Way harder than a holiday indoors!

Re: BBQ's are ALOT of work!
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.
