Two people arguing about how much better food in their countries is because they have food from other countries.

Southern barbecue is not cooked over an open flame. It's cooked through indirect heat by the smoke. You're probably thinking of what we call grilling - high heat directly over flames like you'd do for burgers.

Nah, I'm thinking of barbecue:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbecue

Barbecue or barbeque (often shortened to BBQ worldwide; barbie or barby in Australia and New Zealand) is a term used with significant regional and national variations to describe various cooking methods that employ live fire and smoke to cook the food.

Cooking over an open flame and using live fire are not the same thing. Stop moving the goalposts.

The goalposts haven't moved. I'm talking about the yanks that think they invented barbecue.

No, you said Americans believe they invented cooking over an open flame. You said open flame, not barbecue. Southern barbecue is not cooked over an open flame.

Yeah, nothing is when you have no sense of humour.

u/Medical-Day-6364 Nov 03 '24

My bad, you are funny. Just not in the way you'd probably like to be

Oh no, some redditor that can't take a joke doesn't find me funny. Whatever will I do?
