Do you grill or barbecue?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I admit, I have been guilty of misusing those terms. But then again, I am a northerner who wasn’t raised on barbecue. It wasn’t until moving here that I was firmly given an education about the difference between grilling and barbecuing.
I learned that when I throw a steak over direct heat that’s grilling. When I slowly cook a pork shoulder over low heat, preferably with smoke, and top it with sauce that’s barbecuing.
Do you use the terms grilling and barbecuing synonymously or are you semantically correct when it comes to outdoor cooking terminology? Has anyone wigged out if you used the references incorrectly? Do you get mad when people use them wrongly?
