DEFINITION OF A BARBECUE

This one came from a former co-worker friend, Debra.  Since it's the time of year that everyone is Bar-b-queing I thought I'd pass it along.

  DEFINITION OF A BARBECUE
 It's the only type of cooking a real man will do.  When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:
 
1) The woman buys the food.
2) The woman makes the salad, vegetables, and dessert.
3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on tray 
 along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill -- beer in hand.

 ( The wife proceeds to tell him, how she wants it done, when she wants it done, not to burn it, and she hasn't ever grilled a piece of meat in her life. But, by golly there ain't anything she don't know.) 
4) The man places the meat on the grill.
5) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.
6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he deals with the situation.
7) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman.
8) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.
9)  After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
10) Everyone praises the man and thanks him for his cooking efforts.
11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off."

 And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women.

OH, HOW TRUE HOW TRUE.  MEN THINK THEY ARE THEY ONLY ONE'S WHO CAN START A BBQ.  IT TAKES REAL TALENT TO POUR BRICKETS ONTO A STEEL GRATE, SPILL LIGHTER FLUID ON IT AND LIGHT A MATCH.  WHY IS THAT?

"THAT'S OK, HONEY, IVE GOT IT"  WHAT YOU HAVE IS BURNED, WELL DONE MEAT THAT YOU WOULD RATHER THROW OUT.  THE DOG WOULDN'T EAT IT.

DO THEY EVER DO THE DISHES?

lololololol
