Yeah, at worst it is a pot luck style where you bring whatever you want to BBQ, but even those are rare. Generally if someone say's *I am having a BBQ on sunday, you should come* they have you and everyone else covered. BYOB though!
@@franksmith4730 Yep, Bring your own beer is a thing and most people will even bring some extra alcohol for the owner of the house as a thank you for the invite. I normally buy an extra case of beer to celebrate the BBQ.
Yes. This is the man cooking 's personal family home in South Carolina, USA. It's a favorite thing for a lot of Americans to host backyard meals like this on a Saturday or Sunday.
He does this for his family and guests on Sundays when he’s not traveling. He’s a famous bbq chef and makes the equipment through his company, so long answer… no they are invited guests and pay nothing. Americans love to showcase their foods so we never charge for it we get the joy from people loving it! If you go to a Mexican families Sunday dinner, there is food like crazy too and they just want to feed everyone they see! We have many cultures here that love to feed others and it’s just for their happiness!!! There is an amazing guy Zach something who tells the story of him going to his first black bbq! It’s so true and hilarious!!!! 😂
Yeah, I wish he would really listen more and pause to talk. He always do rapid fire questions and assumptions because he's not really hearing everything because he's talking over the videos.
Yes this is John Haney’s backyard and no- no charge. These are his friends in his backyard. His business, as mentioned, is making custom high end grills and smokers and he has his own BBQ restaurant . You asked how long it takes? He says they start at 9 and aim for eating at 3. Obviously some of the stuff is prepped before like brining the chicken, doing the Mac and cheese assembly before smoking, etc. This is over the top for a backyard cookout but yes we’d at least do a main meat, usually a second meat option, and at least 3-5 sides plus salad and appetizers for a standard normal person BBQ.
When we as African Americans say family, we're talking every body from Big Momma down, aunties, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, all their wives and husbands and, of course, your own immediate family. Folks may even be coming from up state, down state, out of state. Nuclear family is still somewhat of a strange concept for us!
😂 I know my extended family, but most of my life has been spent with a nuclear family. Lots of African Americans live away from their extended family. 😂
@@lydiaedwards8100 Fair enough, but my comment spoke about the impetus behind these sort of gatherings, basically for the TH-camr to understand that this was not about selling food and that these people in the video are not strangers to each other, they are family. I wasn't making commentary on the structure of African American family. I know it is varied.
It is just a thing...I was raised to share food...I absolutely 💯 % LOVE Cooking/Baking for others. I am constantly bringing food to my neighbors. I am going to start bringing food, one day a week, to the local park for the homeless for a hot meal. I find such joy when they like it...I never charge or ask for anything. It is called finding joy in helping others with absolutely no judgment.
It surprises me that the UK has never tried to create their own BBQ culture. While the two other english speaking countries, the USA and Australia, have embraced and created their own unique type or style of BBQ.
I get the impression that most Brits aren't willing to cook slowly. Smoking meat takes a long time to get all that deliciousness in your mouth!!! But, it is so worth the effort and the wait. I hear so many Brits say they don't understand why their meat isn't as juicy and tender. Y'all can cook like this, too, if you are willing to put in the work.
After watching an episode about BBQ in the UK, IIRC, it was Mr H, I researched brisket on the Tesco page. I found nothing at all remotely like the huge slabs of meat sold by HEB in Texas. Many factors involved in the non-BBQ culture. Money, space, time, social ideals, money, equipment, lack of ingredients, money. The briskets at HEB may sell for $50 to $125.
As someone who's been to a variety of backyard cookouts, I have to say that while the quantity of food depends on if it's a holiday and how many people are expected, the variety of food is about this. There's gonna be grilled chicken, maybe chicken salad, too, pulled pork, pork ribs, beef ribs, brisket, sausages, burgers, hotdogs (and corndogs if the host has a deep-fryer), macaroni and cheese FOR SURE, corn bread, dinner rols, potato salad, baked potatoes, rice cooked in various ways, different types of cooked greens, cold slaw, corn on the cob, salads, and different kinds of desserts (SO MANY pies). If the cookout is happening in a state bordering Mexico, you'll likely get tortilla chips, salsa, and fajitas, too, even if none of the attendees are Latino. The variety of food comes from the fact that guests usually bring side-dishes with them to attend. The meats will definitely be handled by the host (along with drinks), but it's expected that at least one or two of the guests will bring in at least one or two dishes each as well. It's common to see like two or three versions of a dish at a cookout because of guests.
Hi Thurs! When I have a bar b q I start cooking the day before. Pulled Pork, Ribs, Chicken, Turkey, and Brisket. Sides are Mac and Cheese, Cole Slaw, Seasoned Baked Beans, Potato Salad, Green Beans and of course Cornbread. For Desert I make Peach Cobbler with Ice cream, Carmel Pie, and Bread Pudding. Add lots of Beer and Bourbon ( I live in Kentucky and we have bourbon at EVERYTINNG, including Funerals) and you have a great time in the garden playing games and spreading love. That is the life.
Your eyes cannot begin to tell you how amazing that food would be. BBQ is the best. I can't wait to complete my move, get a smoker and start working on perfecting RIBS
No a backyard bbq is not something you pay to attend. You'd be lucky if you're allowed to contribute to the menu. If you're invited over, you just bring your appetite and have a great time. Yes, the desserts are homemade as well. Store-bought has no place here, lol.
I was invited to a cookout from my bf best friend and daaaaamn was that the greatest food on this earth! And yes, a lot of different dishes. Oxtails are my favorite!
Yes this is John Haney’s backyard and no- no charge. These are his friends in his backyard.

Yes, we do this regularly in the backyard. If we cooking a whole pig on a spit ( Rotisserie) we call it a "pig 'pickinq" because when it was done, you'd pick pieces off.
When family and friends get together for a barbeque you can expect lots of food. This BBQ seems normal to me. Twenty people is a normal number but so is 30 or 40 people. We have big families in the USA.
My host family did barbecues every Friday evening when I was in high school. The scale was much smaller and the food was a bit different with my experience. But yes, I know several families that did this often.
You don't charge if you invite people to a private backyard Barbeque. You'd lose friends just for asking. This cookout is really big, but it's a pretty typical sort of spread, just more of it, though there as many traditions as there are families. Sometimes people kick-in ahead of time, kinda pass the hat to help out, but that's totally separate from the invites and not the host asking. Nobody charges unless it's a kegger kinda party thing that also has BBQ going. And I haven't really seen that since the '90's, when you could just show up at random parties and buy a red solo cup with your name at the door, which was your party ticket. But you'll see even better cooking at big picnics and social potlucks, like church events or family reunions. People get politely competitive about what they bring to those and you'll eat stuff that you can't find ever again, but that you'll also never forget.
If you’re invited to a BBQ, you are not expected to pay! In fact, some cooks might be offended if you asked! If you’re a new neighbor, especially in the south, expect to be invited to a BBQ, and you’ll meet most of your new neighbors!
I had to realize everyone in other parts of the world don't experience this. Im proud to be from the south im from Texas so yeah I've had some of the best barbecue in the world. My grandfather was a pit master him and his brothers would throw big family barbecues like this all the time. I feel truly blessed i remember him holding me all day while tge smokers were going i would watch him and my grandmother prepare all these delicious meals!! It's an honor to be a black girl from the South. Our culture is the coolest!! 🥰
My grandmother business was not making food, but I can't remember a time growing up there wasn't a block party. More hot dogs, hamburger and punch, but the best you'll ever taste.
What? Only in SC? I am from Louisiana and we had BBQ like this all the time! I live in Arkansas now and we still have BBQ like this as well! Don’t know why this guy thinks it only happens in SC! Every tailgate party at football games has this too! Gail
Hash is mainly found in SC. Just like in South Louisiana, in the low country of SC we have a very distinct culture. Lots of parallels between LA and SC but unique in its own right. A lot of the flavors and dishes are of the Gullah culture. Gullah red rice and chicken perloo are very similar to jambalaya. She crab soup is a a type crab bisque made from a roux containing blue crab eggs, frogmore stew is a shrimp version of a crawfish boil. Shrimp and grits and fish and grits are staples here as well as catfish stew. The list goes on and on. I wish he had incorporated more SC exclusive dishes.
That's what you get at a BBQ, he's cooking a lot more of everything than you normally would. A backyard BBQ is the best. It's definitely a labor of love because it literally takes you all day to cook. You see that he started very early in the morning and half of the dishes were pre-made so he just had to heat it up and it still takes hours and hours. never had the hash before but it looked amazing.
If you're not invited you better not shoe up where I'm from. That would be considered extremely rude and if people have been drinking you'll be called out about it. You better call first. Lol everyone is not invited to the cookout
BBQ cookouts vary depending where you are and different family traditions. Our family BBQs in Texas would always have brisket, sausage, pork spare ribs, chicken and may have other meats from time to time like pulled pork or beef shoulder clod. For sides we have pinto or borracho beans(our family never does sweet style baked beans), corn(on the cob or pot with lots of butter), potato salad, cole slaw, Mexican rice and some other occasional sides. Dessert always have banana pudding, fruit salad and an assortment of cobblers, pies, cakes, cupcakes and cookies. Beer, lots of beer, lemonade, tea, Big Red and usually an assortment of other soft drinks.
You would be surprised how many people actually build their own Barbecue Pits. I was born in South Carolina and still live here. It’s a beautiful state. That was one of the first things my ex and I did when we bought our home. You haven’t lived till you try Hash. Lay Hash over a bed of Rice and oh Lord is it good…yeah I’ve never been able to eat Collard greens.. I don’t like the tomato hash but I love the mustard hash. I also like a mustard base barbecue sauce as well. No you don’t ask for money…it’s all about the family and friends being together and enjoying great food, having a few beers and playing games. We lived in a cul de sac and all of us were the same age. All of our kids were the same age and went to school together. So one house would have volley ball and badminton setup and there was two swimming pools. Another house had the horse shoes. We had the Barbecue Pit. So on the weekends it was going from one house to another our backyards all connected and it was great!! We did the same thing for football season as well…only without the pools!! LOL..
The menu depends upon the family’s traditions. I always did smoked ribs, smoked chicken thighs, baked beans, cole slaw, potato salad and cornbread. + various appetizers. Dessert varied upon the season. Good times. The only payment was your company and conversation. If you’re a stranger stumbling by, please come join us. Welcome to America.
For a backyard BBQ yes Greens, Mac n Cheese, black eyed peas, cornbread are a must. Occasionally during the year you may get one or two like cornbread, greens & black eyed peas for sides for dinner on a routine basis. They went all out with the rice, I didn't see yams, sweet potato, or peach cobbler which is also a must.
Georgia and other Southern States have HASH! We ball it either hash or Brunswick Stew! Either way its delicious. I love the North Carolina vintage pepper sauce on pork. Greasy meat goes great with the vinegar and pepper sauce. If you never had it; here it is: 2 cups Apple Cider Vinegar 2 Tablespoons of red pepper flakes 2 Tablespoons of Ketchup 2 Tablespoons of Brown Sugar Pat of butter about 2 teaspoons. Bring it to a boil EAT! If your invited to someone's house you are never expected to pay any money. My parents use to do huge BBQ'S. We also cooked whole hogs and our Hash had chopped pork, beef and chicken mixed with spices and tomatoes. Hash is good just by the bowlful. Now I need to make some hash. Its takes all day or 2 days to make good hash.😊
We have 60 people over for a 4th of July barbecue every year..We rent a huge barbecue, We supply the meat and everyone else brings a side dish..I'm not a potluck person but I have been in everyone's kitchens. The people that aren't as tidy as I am, I have bring Chips and salsa...We love to barbecue in America!!
From what Lewis said, Brits don't offer up ANYTHING for Free. For us Americans it's called Charity, and we've been called the most charitable nation on Earth.
My home state! South Carolina! I live in Lexington, SC, just an hour and 30 minutes from Charleston, the beach, the great historic city sites of Charleston, and its history and beauty!
When I do a cookout there is no charge. I usually cook Brisket, Pork Butt, Ribs and chicken as well. I also do Macaroni and cheese, potato salad, collard greens and Sweet potato.
Its extravagant but also depending on how many people you are cooking for for example 5 people vs 20. For most people, it would probably be less but similar. My work for example had something similar but as a catering thing. The cooking methods would be the same for the most part and yes you would have a variety of things but not specifically as much depending on how many guests. The trays though are typical party style trays in America that would defintely be used at parties.
This is not a Bar b que this is a cookout and during cookouts yes we usually have all types of side dishes, family and friends also cook and bring dishes, I’ve never been to a cookout with less than at least six sides and that is usually the host who prepared most of those, that is not including family and friends and desserts.
This barbecue is legitimate, however; I am an American and I can confirm that barbecue dinners with family friends and those who you recently met are a common occurrence! I have a small setup in my backyard. Thanks for sharing your BBQ John excellent job.
It's very common to have similar barbeques in the Midwest for church groups and civic groups (Lions Club, etc) having modest fundraisers or membership drives. A small amount of money would buy a half grilled chicken with a bunch of sides and choice of pies (Midwest folks do pies better than everyone).
I’m no great chef, when I bbq there are usually two meat choices, a starch, vegetable, green salad, cold salad, and desert. That is probably typical of an American bbq. Friends will usually contribute by bringing the salads. Have enough beverages so nobody has to bring any but they are welcome to bring some as well.
BBQ is different through out the Southern USA. some sauces are mustard based (like this one) and others are vinegar based and others are tomato based. I have enjoyed all of them. You might explore 'she crab' soup, which is delicious and made in the Mid Atlantic states.
In all 50 states, you're not a real American man if you can't barbecue. It's not just a Southern thing and mostly a manly deed. I'm from Philadephia, Pennsylvania and and have been to tens and tens of these types of barbecues in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. It's one of the things American women are appreciative for. Seeing a man at a grill cooking over a hot grill is a wondrous thing for us females. It's not just a Southern thing. It's an American thing. I guess the best motif is the phrase, "bringing home the bacon." Feeding your family, extended family, friends, co-worker tons of food like pork ribs, steak, hot dogs, hamburgers, potato salad, macaroni salad, greens, corn on the cob, ice tea, lemonade, beer, soda. I'm a 66 year old woman and even I find the phenomena fascinating. Go to any Walmart, Lowes, Home Depot and there are barbecue grills on sale. It's generally a purchase that the man in the family buys so he can be a star charring all that protein. The man of the hour that everyone goes to with their plates in hand. It's kinda an endearing tradition.
Ngl was skeptical on the title on who cookout u was reacting to 👀🧑🏽🍳😂 if you know you know…but this was a great one 🫡🔥every cookout may vary on food extras, music playing, dancing, games,etc kinda depends on how laid back or upbeat or how many people are there, etc but there is usually the basics when it comes to foods like bbq ribs, chicken, macaroni, greens, potato salad or some other extra sides also as for desserts the main ones I’ve had at cookouts was banana pudding/cake & ice cream, most of the time I’ve personally had burgers and hotdogs/brats on grills as well at cookouts, at home and as a visitor
He's a bbq chef & he deals in heavy-duty custom built fryer sets! Those are all his & they're used differently, depending on how or what u like barbecuing! They are on the high-end of grills!
You don't pay to go to these, you just get invited, sometimes you'll bring or make dishes or sides or bring supplies (plates, utensils, etc) to add but usually you just come and eat and have a good time. Most of the time, it's just family and friends, maybe close coworkers but this is a lot bigger (probably bc of who John is and what he does)
If you see someone doing something at their own house you can pretty much be 99.9% certain that they are not charging anyone. The only thing someone would do to that effect is a Potluck where other people will bring the side dishes they made from home or the only other option would be is one guy buys the chicken one guy buys the ribs etc etc and they all bring it to cook at his house but that’s something you probably would only see if it were really really young people like college kids. This is him just doing this himself for his family and friends, he travels a lot but when he’s in town he said he does this. No one will come to a Barbecue someone is charging for if it’s not for a charity fundraiser , they would find that incredibly strange.
The guests are invited, you don't pay. But, he does this for a living, so, he will go to competitions or people that want his services. Competitions, win a cash prize, maybe. People that want him to cook, you pay for the service, also he might have his own spot where he sells it 3-4 times a week.
What this backyard BBQ is call giving back to the community, making great memories with family and friends having a great time that's what life is all about 💚🩵💜🧡
This is a cookout, sort of. It would be a "real" cookout (in the black folks sense of the word) if there was some good music playing and maybe a game of cards going on.
@lydiaedwards8100 true, but there would still usually be some music going, even if it's just some Kirk Franklin in the background. I guess to me, if we're just cooking and eating, that's a BBQ lol. But if there's music, cards, games for the kids, I think of that as more of a cookout.
You don't pay to go to someone else's backyard barbecue- you're invited to be there.
No. He doesn't charge the people. If get invited to a BBQ in America, you do not pay at all.
Yeah, at worst it is a pot luck style where you bring whatever you want to BBQ, but even those are rare. Generally if someone say's *I am having a BBQ on sunday, you should come* they have you and everyone else covered. BYOB though!
@@franksmith4730 Yep, Bring your own beer is a thing and most people will even bring some extra alcohol for the owner of the house as a thank you for the invite. I normally buy an extra case of beer to celebrate the BBQ.

His business, as mentioned, is making custom high end grills and smokers and he has his own BBQ restaurant . You asked how long it takes? He says they start at 9 and aim for eating at 3.

BBQ cookouts vary depending where you are and different family traditions. Our family BBQs in Texas would always have brisket, sausage, pork spare ribs, chicken and may have other meats from time to time like pulled pork or beef shoulder clod. For sides we have pinto or borracho beans(our family never does sweet style baked beans), corn(on the cob or pot with lots of butter), potato salad, cole slaw, Mexican rice and some other occasional sides. Dessert always have banana pudding, fruit salad and an assortment of cobblers, pies, cakes, cupcakes and cookies. Beer, lots of beer, lemonade, tea, Big Red and usually an assortment of other soft drinks.
Yes, we have all of this on the menu and more at our backyard barbeque
You would be surprised how many people actually build their own Barbecue Pits. I was born in South Carolina and still live here. It’s a beautiful state. That was one of the first things my ex and I did when we bought our home. You haven’t lived till you try Hash. Lay Hash over a bed of Rice and oh Lord is it good…yeah I’ve never been able to eat Collard greens.. I don’t like the tomato hash but I love the mustard hash. I also like a mustard base barbecue sauce as well. No you don’t ask for money…it’s all about the family and friends being together and enjoying great food, having a few beers and playing games. We lived in a cul de sac and all of us were the same age. All of our kids were the same age and went to school together. So one house would have volley ball and badminton setup and there was two swimming pools. Another house had the horse shoes. We had the Barbecue Pit. So on the weekends it was going from one house to another our backyards all connected and it was great!! We did the same thing for football season as well…only without the pools!! LOL..
The menu depends upon the family’s traditions. I always did smoked ribs, smoked chicken thighs, baked beans, cole slaw, potato salad and cornbread. + various appetizers. Dessert varied upon the season. Good times. The only payment was your company and conversation. If you’re a stranger stumbling by, please come join us. Welcome to America.
For a backyard BBQ yes Greens, Mac n Cheese, black eyed peas, cornbread are a must. Occasionally during the year you may get one or two like cornbread, greens & black eyed peas for sides for dinner on a routine basis. They went all out with the rice, I didn't see yams, sweet potato, or peach cobbler which is also a must.
Georgia and other Southern States have HASH! We ball it either hash or Brunswick Stew! Either way its delicious. I love the North Carolina vintage pepper sauce on pork. Greasy meat goes great with the vinegar and pepper sauce. If you never had it; here it is:
2 cups Apple Cider Vinegar
2 Tablespoons of red pepper flakes
2 Tablespoons of Ketchup
2 Tablespoons of Brown Sugar
Pat of butter about 2 teaspoons.
Bring it to a boil
EAT!
If your invited to someone's house you are never expected to pay any money. My parents use to do huge BBQ'S. We also cooked whole hogs and our Hash had chopped pork, beef and chicken mixed with spices and tomatoes. Hash is good just by the bowlful. Now I need to make some hash. Its takes all day or 2 days to make good hash.😊
We have 60 people over for a 4th of July barbecue every year..We rent a huge barbecue, We supply the meat and everyone else brings a side dish..I'm not a potluck person but I have been in everyone's kitchens. The people that aren't as tidy as I am, I have bring Chips and salsa...We love to barbecue in America!!
From what Lewis said, Brits don't offer up ANYTHING for Free. For us Americans it's called Charity, and we've been called the most charitable nation on Earth.
😂😂
Yes Greenville,SC we have all the sides. Yes this is a cookout. 😊
My home state! South Carolina! I live in Lexington, SC, just an hour and 30 minutes from Charleston, the beach, the great historic city sites of Charleston, and its history and beauty!
When I do a cookout there is no charge. I usually cook Brisket, Pork Butt, Ribs and chicken as well. I also do Macaroni and cheese, potato salad, collard greens and Sweet potato.
When we BBQ , we have four to five proteins and four to five sides . Throw in sweets and drinks to compete the feast. 😊😊😊
Its extravagant but also depending on how many people you are cooking for for example 5 people vs 20. For most people, it would probably be less but similar. My work for example had something similar but as a catering thing.
The cooking methods would be the same for the most part and yes you would have a variety of things but not specifically as much depending on how many guests.
The trays though are typical party style trays in America that would defintely be used at parties.
This is not a Bar b que this is a cookout and during cookouts yes we usually have all types of side dishes, family and friends also cook and bring dishes, I’ve never been to a cookout with less than at least six sides and that is usually the host who prepared most of those, that is not including family and friends and desserts.
All that and fried fish , crabs , beer , liquor, cigars , music and band
Summer? Hell, I've BBQed in the snow!
This barbecue is legitimate, however; I am an American and I can confirm that barbecue dinners with family friends and those who you recently met are a common occurrence! I have a small setup in my backyard. Thanks for sharing your BBQ John excellent job.
At least in South Carolina with that size. If it was with my family, it's way smaller.
It's very common to have similar barbeques in the Midwest for church groups and civic groups (Lions Club, etc) having modest fundraisers or membership drives. A small amount of money would buy a half grilled chicken with a bunch of sides and choice of pies (Midwest folks do pies better than everyone).
I’m no great chef, when I bbq there are usually two meat choices, a starch, vegetable, green salad, cold salad, and desert. That is probably typical of an American bbq. Friends will usually contribute by bringing the salads. Have enough beverages so nobody has to bring any but they are welcome to bring some as well.
BBQ is different through out the Southern USA. some sauces are mustard based (like this one) and others are vinegar based and others are tomato based. I have enjoyed all of them. You might explore 'she crab' soup, which is delicious and made in the Mid Atlantic states.
Everything looked so good! I want that Mac n cheese, and the ribs.
In all 50 states, you're not a real American man if you can't barbecue. It's not just a Southern thing and mostly a manly deed. I'm from Philadephia, Pennsylvania and and have been to tens and tens of these types of barbecues in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. It's one of the things American women are appreciative for. Seeing a man at a grill cooking over a hot grill is a wondrous thing for us females. It's not just a Southern thing. It's an American thing. I guess the best motif is the phrase, "bringing home the bacon." Feeding your family, extended family, friends, co-worker tons of food like pork ribs, steak, hot dogs, hamburgers, potato salad, macaroni salad, greens, corn on the cob, ice tea, lemonade, beer, soda. I'm a 66 year old woman and even I find the phenomena fascinating. Go to any Walmart, Lowes, Home Depot and there are barbecue grills on sale. It's generally a purchase that the man in the family buys so he can be a star charring all that protein. The man of the hour that everyone goes to with their plates in hand. It's kinda an endearing tradition.
It’s all free my boy he does well for himself and he is hosting his family and friends
A barbecue would have whatever the cooks want to have. There's no particular set menu or type of food or drink items that have to be served.😊
This looks very similar to the backyard BBQs that Lav Luka creates.
Ngl was skeptical on the title on who cookout u was reacting to 👀🧑🏽🍳😂 if you know you know…but this was a great one 🫡🔥every cookout may vary on food extras, music playing, dancing, games,etc kinda depends on how laid back or upbeat or how many people are there, etc but there is usually the basics when it comes to foods like bbq ribs, chicken, macaroni, greens, potato salad or some other extra sides also as for desserts the main ones I’ve had at cookouts was banana pudding/cake & ice cream, most of the time I’ve personally had burgers and hotdogs/brats on grills as well at cookouts, at home and as a visitor
He's a bbq chef & he deals in heavy-duty custom built fryer sets! Those are all his & they're used differently, depending on how or what u like barbecuing! They are on the high-end of grills!
We don't charge our guests..even in Oklahoma. BBQ is a cookout of love for friends and family. If you are invited, you just come eat.
In my family, it was just my brother and me, mom and grandma so we would never make that much food. But we always did BBQ chicken
You don't pay to go to these, you just get invited, sometimes you'll bring or make dishes or sides or bring supplies (plates, utensils, etc) to add but usually you just come and eat and have a good time. Most of the time, it's just family and friends, maybe close coworkers but this is a lot bigger (probably bc of who John is and what he does)
This is an amazing backyard BBQ!
I have a smoker/pellet grill and I cook everything from hot dogs to smoked ribs on it.
Nope…no charge. Just friends and family invited to Sunday dinner.
I know a guy that is a pit master and breed his own hogs . He pick the one to breed and the one to cook
Hash is a New England staple you put 2 eggs sunny side up and it’s called bubble and squeak
If you see someone doing something at their own house you can pretty much be 99.9% certain that they are not charging anyone. The only thing someone would do to that effect is a Potluck where other people will bring the side dishes they made from home or the only other option would be is one guy buys the chicken one guy buys the ribs etc etc and they all bring it to cook at his house but that’s something you probably would only see if it were really really young people like college kids. This is him just doing this himself for his family and friends, he travels a lot but when he’s in town he said he does this. No one will come to a Barbecue someone is charging for if it’s not for a charity fundraiser , they would find that incredibly strange.
Mac & Cheese, and Greens (sometimes turnip greens) are fairly standard.
Black Smoke Barbecue channel ,Episode 55 w/ John Haney. Hour long interview about BBQ and shares a few bbq secrets👍
The guests are invited, you don't pay. But, he does this for a living, so, he will go to competitions or people that want his services. Competitions, win a cash prize, maybe. People that want him to cook, you pay for the service, also he might have his own spot where he sells it 3-4 times a week.
By definition, BBQ = smoked meats. As opposed to grilling which is just cooking food over heat.
I’d be so mad if I was his neighbor. Smelling the delicious aromas in the air with no invite 😢 lol!
You would be surprised how many people does this also.
Hash is not only SC, I'm in NC hash is fairly normal.
This is his back yard (garden) and he’s cooking for family and friends.
What this backyard BBQ is call giving back to the community, making great memories with family and friends having a great time that's what life is all about 💚🩵💜🧡
This is a cookout, sort of. It would be a "real" cookout (in the black folks sense of the word) if there was some good music playing and maybe a game of cards going on.
That does depend on the people. This looks like most of the group would be more interested in talking to each other.
@lydiaedwards8100 true, but there would still usually be some music going, even if it's just some Kirk Franklin in the background. I guess to me, if we're just cooking and eating, that's a BBQ lol. But if there's music, cards, games for the kids, I think of that as more of a cookout.
Where’s the drinks? Sweet tea
Not only is it free to attend these, but there is usually WAY TOO MUCH food and the guests will leave with leftovers.
Sadly this barbecue was only about a two hour drive from my house .. I could SO love to visit
Love my birth place. The tree's are beautiful.
He is fixin to have some Soul Food. I live in South Cackalackey and we know how to eat.
American PitMasters make anywhere from 100 gs to well into the millions...it's according to how sweet their restaurant and merch games are.
We gon try to eat by 3. IYKYK 😂
No charge
When people invite you to their house, they do not charge you for the food.
That's standard cookout food they need some potato salad though and fish
An Eagles hat and a Cowboys hat worn together as friends at the same event is sacrilege.
Yes this is a normal barbecue in the states but they are missing the potato salad
Yes, this is a "cookout"
You don't pay but you could bring a side or dessert or a dish if the host requests but if you want to be a good guest bringing a drink is good
this is way bigger than the average american cook out
You can get that anywhere in the deep south 😊
