What is barbecue?
Meats being barbecued at a restaurant
Barbecue or barbeque (informally BBQ or barbie) is a cooking method, a style of food, and a name for a meal or gathering at which this style of food is cooked and served.
Barbecue can refer to the cooking method itself, the meat cooked this way, the cooking apparatus/machine used (the "barbecue grill" or simply "barbecue"), or to a type of social event featuring this type of cooking. Barbecuing is usually done outdoors by smoking the meat over wood or charcoal. Restaurant barbecue may be cooked in large, specially-designed brick or metal ovens. Barbecue is practiced in many areas of the world and there are numerous regional variations.
Barbecuing techniques include smoking, roasting or baking, braising and grilling. The original technique[citation needed] is cooking using smoke at low temperatures and long cooking times (several hours). Baking uses an oven to convection cook with moderate temperatures for an average cooking time of about an hour. Braising combines direct, dry heat charbroiling on a ribbed surface with a broth-filled pot for moist heat. Grilling is done over direct, dry heat, usually over a hot fire for a few minutes.
Why do more and more people like to eat barbecue?
Here are eight of Bart Fireside’s best reasons to fire up your barbecue tonight:
1. It turns food preparation and cooking into a social event. What if the heart of the home isn’t in the kitchen but rather in the outdoor kitchen? This appears to be the case, as dinner guests love spending time outdoors near the grill, where all the action and the delicious smells happen.
2. Food prepared on the grill is naturally fresher. You’re not going to have to worry much about being served processed foods—or even rich, creamy, calorie-laden stuff—hot off a barbecue. Instead, grills seem to naturally encourage the cooking of fresh meats, fish, and vegetables.
3. It makes use of all your of senses. The bases of smell, sight, sound, and of course taste are all covered when grilling.
4. It’s instinctive. It could be said that cooking over a live fire is in our DNA. The cavemen did it; we want to, too
5. It’s exciting. Speaking of live fire, isn’t it more thrilling to cook over it than to peer into the door of an oven every so often? Barbecuing makes cooking feel like more of an event.
6. It’s versatile. You can cook almost anything on a barbecue, especially one like the Primo ceramic grill, which many of our customers use to cook things like pizzas and even fruit pies
7. It gets you outdoors. OK, so barbecuing doesn’t exactly equate with taking a hike in the woods, but it’s still a way to get people outside, which is naturally grounding and calming.
8. It saves you the hassle of kitchen cleanup. Consolidated to just one cooker, dinners prepared on a barbecue like the Big Green Egg require less cleanup afterward. This makes dinner taste that much better.

Cautions for barbecue
1. Parasitic disease
The meat used by some vendors to make kebabs is often not quarantined, and even contains parasites that are difficult to kill for a short time. It is likely to enter the human body during the course of eating, bringing health risks.
2. Protein reduction
Meat is barbecued in an oven, where the vitamins and amino acids created are destroyed and the protein denatures, seriously affecting the intake of these nutrients.
3. Induce cancer
Protein containing foods produce a 3,4 benzopyrene carcinogen during heating. If people often eat food contaminated by benzopyrene, carcinogenic substances will accumulate in the body, leading to the risk of gastric and intestinal cancer.
4. Intoxication
At some barbecue stands, the meat that was original of very low quality tastes delicious. The relevant food safety departments found that the tenderness of the meat was due to excessive addition of tender meal powder by operators. Tender meat powder usually contains nitrite, too much consumption is easy to cause poisoning.
5. Physical balance
After a barbecue, the nature of the food tends to be hot, cumin, pepper, pepper, and other condiments are hot ingredients, spicy greatly stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis and digestive juice secretion, may damage the digestive tract mucosa, but also affect the body's balance.
6. Environmental pollution
All kinds of food, such as meat kebabs, will produce a lot of smoke, these smoke also contains strong carcinogens, can enter the human body through the skin, respiratory tract, digestive tract and other channels, thereby inducing gastric cancer, liver cancer, leukemia and so on.
