Works in politics though. Repeat a lie often enough and it may as well be gospel.
acording to WEBSTER`S 11NEW COLLEGE DICTIONARY Barbecue1.a grill ,pit,or outdoor fireplace for roasting meat 2. a whole anamal carcass or section thereof roasted or broiled over an open fire or on a spit b. A usu. outdoor social gathering at which food is prepared in this way-vt. cued. -cu.ing.-cues. to roast,broil, or grill meat over live coals or open fire. As one of those lucky enof to be born in the B.B.Q. center of the known universe as a child a bbq was hotdogs and hambergers not untill my first trip to STARK,FLA. did i get to taste real bbq (sonnys) a true passion was born it`s fairly clear that those who live in the carolinas think that they and they alone know jack about our art form (yes it is a art not a science) there are lots of different types of bbq as for us yankey`s not knowing dick about bbq i am no longer aloud to come to stark without my LANG and a cooler of pork and beefWell, to be fair, above the Mason-Dixon Line are the states that aren't known for their barbecue. In fact, in the 1800's, a barbecue above the Mason-Dixon was a strange event that required Southerners to cook it and a lot of explanation in the newspapers for Northerners to understand it. So, I'm thinking that people in the Northern states may not be the best people to go to for a definition of barbecue.
I'm trying to follow what you're saying. So you're saying there is a "correct"/absolute definition of barbecue when it is used as a noun?
Just had a thought. Are we really asking who owns the word barbecue?
Not barbecue,but cooked with the BBQ method.So, generally, many here see a distinction between barbecued meat and barbecue meaning that it is possible to cook meat using the barbecue method and the resulting product may or may not be barbecue.
Which came first -- the loose usage of the word barbecue throughout the majority/world, or the tight usage of the word barbecue that we associate with the southern US? I wonder if tight definitions fit "American Barbecue" or "Southern US Barbecue" better than they seem to be fitting the more general word "barbecue". Could specifying what you are defining off the bat be a way to turn this uphill battle into a level ground battle? Maybe further specify "Alabama Barbecue" or "Texas Barbecue", etc., if you can't get a quorum across the US for your definition?

It's against federal law to sell a grilled hot dog and call it barbecue, BTW. The same for marinated meat that has been grilled or even a prime rib roasted barbecued to a perfect medium rare.
