Father’s Day Grill vs. BBQ

When I think about the best way to celebrate my dad or my husband, or any dad for that matter, my first thought is Bar-B-Q! Or Grilling!  What man doesn’t want a home-cooked meal consisting primarily of grilled meat hot off the BBQ?  Then the question arises, is there is a difference between barbequing and grilling?  I did a little research and the answer is YES, there is a very big difference!  Prior to writing this, I have used the words interchangeably, but not any longer!  Generally speaking, barbeque refers to “low and slow” while grilling means “hot and fast”.

Grilled Meat –‘Hot & Fast’

 

Best barbeque foods include ribs, brisket, and pork shoulder, cooked on low heat over wood coals, for a long period of time to soak up the smoke, seal in the juices and create a moist and tender piece of meat.  Smoking your meat also falls under this definition.  Most people are more familiar with grilling; options for grilling are steaks, burgers, hotdogs, chicken, seafood and vegetables, hot temperature and fast cooking time – inches above gas flames or live coals.

So whether you’re barbequing or grilling, either are great reasons to have a party and celebrate DADS!  Make sure to check out our Grillogy page too! Happy Father’s Day!

One of the features described to us was that lists and offers would be based on our recent pruchases.

If that is so I am wondering why I have all the offers for baby diapers, pet products and personal hygiene products.

We have never bought and have no interest in baby products, pet products and only buy health and beauty

products in Safeway in dire emergencies.  So I am wondering if there isn't a way for me to check these products

and eliminate the offers.  It consumes my time in many ways and is a BIG deterrent.  I would find adding my own

selection criteria to the mix would truly tailor it to my shopping needs and interests.

Hi there...  My local Safeway store is the "People's Plaza" store in Glasgow DE.   I shop there often.. There is an item that I can't find in "my" store..  I know you caryy the Johnsonville sausage product line..  You don't carry "Hot and Spicy Brats" (Johnsonville).   I can only find them in Walmart (and I don't think you want me doing my grocery shopping in Walmart).

 

Can you start stocking them.. ???? 

 

Thanks!

 

Chris
