I spotted this contraption at the camping park where we spent Saturday night. It’s meant to sit over the fire and act as a grill. The circular grid is held up by a chain and the chain can be raised or lowered to place the grill at the height you want.
Vince, my husband, does most of our cooking and thinks that barbecues are the ruination of good meat. Certainly I’ve had a few barbecued meals where the meat has been cremated rather than well done. I know many myLotters really enjoy their barbecues but to each his own, I guess.

I love food cooked outside over an open fire. Next choice is a barbecue grill. The meat being cremated is the cooks fault no matter where it is cooked.

I see, ok. Living in an apartment, no grilling allowed. I go to Burger King when I've craving for grilled burgers.

This grilling plate is great. It's handy that you can adjust the height. I like BBQ once in a while.

I am impressed by this novel grill plate. You have to be careful to get food done on the inside yet not make the outside into charcoal.

That is always the hard part. The middle is nearly raw but the outside all blackened.

The word barbeque simply gives one a feeling of having a fun time.

Me and my boyfriend have a friend that had something like this. My mom and her boyfriend has a big pot that you put over the fire that you can make soups in they love it

It's good that everyone is a bit different. I can imagine your mum would make some great soups.

I love grilled food but don't have a grill or barbecue.

I'm with you and Vince: barbecue is a sin.

In the southern US, what you described is “grilling.” Barbecuing in the south is rubbing a large slab of meat with seasonings and putting it in a slow cooker over hickory or mesquite or cherry or other kinds of wood to enhance the flavor, then letting it smoke for 10-24 hours. Night and day difference. If you ever visit Texas and get offered barbecue it won’t be “cremated.”

I am with you on that. I am not particularly keen on BBQ.

Sometimes the meat is nice if it's not cooked too quickly.
