We don't have the barbeque so often. If we will have a barbeque, usually we will have it in the park. There are some parks which have the barceque zone. It's convenient. As you can have anything you want there, such as coal, barbeque tools etc. Seldom people will have a barbeque stove here, but I have one I tried to have the barbeque once at home and it's terrible because it's smoky After that, I will never want to have the barbeque at home

We don't cook out much anymore. Luckily my neighbors and I are getting closer and we end up just having dinner outside with everyone just accumulating around the food and drinks. It usually doesn't start out being a party, just ends up that way. We are planning a bbq for the forth of july. I don't think planned events are as much fun as the spontanious ones but hey gives the neighborhood something to look forward to.

We almost always grill (barbeque) at home. It is great in the summer because you dont have to heat up the kitchen to make dinner. It is also quite tasty!
I prefer to do it at home because I hate having to lug everything that we need somewhere else. At home, it is already there so we can just use it and then easily put it away when we are done!
I cant wait to do more grilling this year. We are waiting on a part to convert our new grill from natural gas to propane, and then I will be able to do much more cooking outside! It has the grill part and a side burner. I wont have to do anything in the kitchen!

There is no more mess than you would have to clean up at a park! At home, we clean the grill after using it. If you use a grill at a park, you have to clean it before you start! So it really doesnt make a difference.

Should we have an occasion for a barbeque we normally have it in our house compound as is everyone else in my place. It is more private and comfortable to hold a barbeque at home. No, we don't have such parks like what you describe here especially for barbeques. The smoke is not a big problem as we have big area and do it a distant away from the house.

We cook on the grill at home and add barbecue sauce to it and now you are at home and comfrotable eating in your won place. If we go out to eat we might go to a barbecue restaurant and eat it there but other than that we usually eat it at home or a family members house who is having a barbecue and enjoy that. We also might go out on the boat and grill on the boat and enjoy a barbecue lunch or dinner on the boat.

If my family and I want to have barbeque,we will do it at our home.We do barbeque behind my house and will enjoy it together.We all love barbeque.We like do that at our own home because we will feel more comfortable and more privacy.We have no problem do it at behind my house and sometimes my neighbours also join us.Have a nice day and happy mylot!

Hi Youless,
I understand your feeling about having a barbeque at home. We tired once, it was a nightmare! LOL...i mean it's fun to have all the friends come around and chat and eat, but you have to clean all the mess later, that was the hardest part! I think having the barbeque at a park is a definitely a great idea, nice environment,cool place, most importantly, you don't need to worry about the cleaness!

i love barbequeing and i love the smell of the pork on the grill with lots of sauce and steamy hot charcoal. we always have our barbeques on the beach where its open and the smoke won't get that much on someones way. its rather nice to have a barbeque and swimming and eating in up. and just having plain fun with your family and friends. but we also have tried barbequeing outside the house, and still its quite fine but the smoke is making me annoyed. lol!
thanks friend

We normally do it in the back yard because the is more space so the all the smoke wont get in to the house. I really like it specially if I don't have to cook becasue some times my husban would do the cooking that is if its in the grill. There are times that I wish he would cook ones a week and it those not matter if he only cooks in the grill. To bad that is not possible because he wont do it he might cook one a moth or every three months.

I never have BBQ at home and BBQ is not so popular here.normally we go to BBQ restaurant with some friends, it is more convenient and no need to clear place:)
But the BBQ restaurants are not so good, expensive but food is so bad. sometime I can see some people have BBQ at the bottom of mountain,of course there will not cause a fire.

For my family the best way to go for a barbecue is at the beach, sharing moments with love ones at the beach with our favorite pork belly barbecue and chicken.

We like to have our barbecues at home, but we have room where we do not have to have all the smoke coming directly into the house. We enjoy cooking out at the lake when we go.

barbeque is one of the very popular food in the philippines. i know it is also at china. we barbeque almost anything. our landlord has as open garage and we can barbeque there. but now its therainy season here so we cant barbeque as often as we like. so when we feel like eating barbeque we and eat out. there is a place here near a small grocery were they serve barbeque and cook while you wait. its nice to pig out there.

Hi, youless. I usually have went to a barbecue when I went to someone house. It is usually at the house. I have never went to a barbecue before that was at the park. It is best to have a barbecue outside of your home. I may barbecue chicken in the oven though, but as far as grilling is concerned, I will grill outside.

My husband and I haven't had a barbecue yet, but we might have one later this summer. We have talked about having a barbecue in our garden, that would be nice. We used to live in an apartment without our own garden, now we have a small garden, so we are able to do things like having a barbecue. Sometimes the Danish weather is okay for a barbecue, but there have been times where my family had to give up the idea because of the rain. Then we have to hurry up and move everything inside and finish the "barbecue" inside the house

The fourth of July is coming up pretty soon and there will be a lot of barbeques going on around here. I have a grill but it hasn't been used in years and it's rotted. We used to have barbeques for the fourth every year when my parents were younger and we would have some of the family over. We would also have watermelon and when we were kids, we would play with sparklers. Now, they have a fireworks show at the old airport, which is just over the woods from where I live. You can see them from my patio, as a matter of fact. A lot of people park their car in front of my house to watch them. I like to go over there to watch them, myself, because they have different bands to perform before the fireworks display. They also sell food over there, lol. Kathy.

for me if i want some barbeque i usually buy in the streets that near in our house,but this barbeque is not that good for us because it can be cause of cancer,sometimes we cook pork and chicken barbeque in the house and we can save a lot.
