Barbecue is Barbecue, Grilling is Grilling..

[Captain Morgan]

no but KCBS doesn't define bbq for the rest of the world either.
Their rules are for comps.

Sounds like some of the anti comp arguments as espoused by Bob in GA, Dave Lineback etc.They do make some fair assessments that comp bbq should not be used as a criteria when judging the quality of bbq in general. Now I think there is an argument to be made on this issue especially as it applies to KCBS judging. Texas type man/manette off the street type judging is a hoss of a different color since folks are allowed to pick whut they really like as opposed to picking whut they tell them to pick in judging class. Thats purty silly.

I really don't give a rat's ass 'bout how you define it...I love bbq!

There has been a debate on this forever....... The Mayan and native North Americans used indirect smoke methods for over hundreds of yrs before migration of the europeans arrived... in the Mayans ruins there is proof of smoking rooms for wild game all before the use of calendars.... so the definition of bbq and grilling will go forever... I have so called "grilled" pork and beat up comp style smoked pork... i have smoked some of the best brisket and got my ass handed to me by a Chuckwagon cook from the Pitchfork ranch in Texas that cooked on a rotisserie rod over a fire in the ground... The debate will rage on forever.......

Once in the backyard, my son once asked me, "Dad, what's the difference between the gas grill and the charcoal kettle?" To which I replied, "Attitude, son. Attitude."

BBq is done in indirect heat slow process of cooking and grilling is done in direct heat cooking faster

Couldn't agree more. In fact, some may even call BBq indirect grilling which is normally used to cook tough cuts of meat.

You have pointed it out well, but confusion happens to everyone.

Great discussion on the differences between barbecue and grilling! I agree, many people tend to confuse the two methods. Barbecue typically involves slow-cooking over indirect heat, while grilling uses direct high heat.

Welcome... I think.

I am a BBQ enthusiast in Texas, so I'm in, and know a lot about Texas BBQ. We do have a specific forum here for BBQ and Grilling. You might want to check it out, and post up your knowledge there. We BBQ enthusiasts love to share knowledge.

I hope you will become a regular contributor to the Form, as we can use some more BBQ enthusiasts here.

I don't know what the article you speak of is, but you can copy and paste it into a new thread for us to read about and comment on. I know people here would love that. This thread is OLD. Start a new one for us to have a good discussion about.

I would not just post a link to your blog or recipe site, because that will most likely get deleted.

Welcome again. I hope you hang out with us and contribute with a lot of advice, and questions answered.
