so I want to have a small party about 10 girls I thought sleepover but about half of them cant sleepover (they stay as late as they can) so that wouldn’t be as much fun. My family is vegetarian ( i am not) but they will not do a barbecue or anything that makes them "cook" meat… my parents don’t have much money and That is why I am trying to plan it in advance so that I can tell them what I would like and mabye they can save for it..I was thinking mabye rent a suite at a hotel with a pool or something like that. so any ideas. idk if I want to have it at my house but I am open to any ideas:)

First off i am looking for a cheap barbecue in the 50 to 100 bucks range, and i am a new buyer, never shopped for a barbecue, seen alot of them but i know nothing about them. i need all the info i can to buying a good barbecue.

i’ve also heard from a friend that a side burner is a must for a barbecue, is it really that important?
i also don’t care what company the barbecue is from, as long as it’s a good working barbecue that will last me for the next 2 to 3 years.

though if it makes a difference, then tell me about different company’s too.

I have lived in Greensboro, NC area all my life. There is a fast food chain here called the Cook Out. It has been here as long as I can remember. I love the food this restaurant serves, and especially the prices. The prices are cheaper than about every other fast food joint but the food is delicious. They have like 39 different milkshakes. Plus, you can get a combo for only 3.99. My favorite is the cook out style cheeseburger. Also, I like the barbecue plate. Oh I forgot the foot long hot dogs and onion rings are great too. So am I the only one, other than the folks around Greensboro, who love this place?

Me making hamburgers on my Weber Go-Anywhere charcoal grill. This time I tried using indirect heat. I think, though, that this grill is a little small for this. Next time I’ll try moving the coals to either side rather than just to one side, and I’ll leave the middle without coals for the veggies. The charcoal is Kingsford Briquettes mixed with random cheap-o charcoal, prepared in a charcoal chimney. The beef is fresh (bought from my butcher an hour earlier) and seasoned with salt and pepper. Half is mixed with some diced onion (my burger-buddy hates onions). The grilled onion is sliced and then one side is brushed with olive oil and the onion is placed oiled-side down on the grill. After a minute, the other side is oiled and the onion is flipped. Be careful, as it’s very easy to accidentally burn the onion or knock it into the fire (as shown). The idea is to saute the onion in its own juices and with a little olive oil, not to char it. It’s delicious like this. I screwed this up this time, and forgot to brush the first side with oil, which is why you see me flipping the onion so fast. The mushrooms are simple Champignons, brushed liberally with olive oil. Delicious. The mushroom flavor is so strong like this. The cheese is a local Gouda. The buns were generic, bought at the supermarket. In regards to why I filmed this… Why not?
