Black folks will invite someone to a cookout. White folks will invite someone to a bbq. They're all going to the same party.

Nothing.
If someone invited me to one or the other, I would imagine the same event.

Thank you. Or they had a “cook out” or “threw something on the grill”.
Barbecue is a totally different thing.

Splitting hairs. Grilling/cooking out/bbq I’d expect some sort of food cooked on a grill.

Cook out is burgers and hotdogs and no BBQ. BBQ is just BBQ.

It's never too late to legislate proper usage of English.


I hope by now we all understand that you can't barbecue chicken
