cooking experience

Barbecue or barbeque, (informally, BBQ and, in Australia, 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.
A barbecue can refer to the cooking method itself, the meat cooked this way, or to a type of social event featuring this type of cooking. Barbecuing is usually done outdoors by smoking 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 technique for which it is named involves 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.

    When did you start cooking?

    How long have you been cooking? I mean seriously cooking. I'm ashamed to say I was in my mid twenties before I learned anything at all. I was pretty hopeless back then and it was a man in my life who taught me to cook. But really, it wasn't until I was mid thirties that I started regularly...
