#11 if you're the last one at the cookout after everyone has left for the night and fixed a "to go" plate you are automatically drafted to the cleanup crew
So true that's why no matter what family get together when I walk in the door my first words are IM NOT WASHING DISHES. And I don't lol you kno kinda like that saying I got front seat
@@KIMjB72 so true....and then there's always that one person that makes 2 or 3 take home plates(1 for them,2 for whomever that didn't show up) my mother did that for turkey day,christmas and easter when she went over my grandmother's house and my aunts house. Honestly the same rules that apply for a black bbq need to apply at Thanksgiving,Xmas and Easter(that's just me.....)
Went to a black church bbq in South Carolina, smack dab middle of nowhere near the coast. Nicest people I’ve met to date all the brothers outside fixin up the church n attending to the pig roast n crawfish boil while the ole mommas were inside the kitchen. Let me tell my fellow white folk, you wanna witness heaven? You go to a black church bbq in the south. Boi I tell ya that smoked hog n fried catfish put me in a mf coma! With that came loads n loads of Mac n cheese pickel potato salad corn bread beans n rice. And to top it off sweet potato pie, peach cobbler, and banana pudding. It was $10 a plate n I was there for work from Chicago. I left with a few recipes from the old mommas n a hug from each of them I had to let em know that was the greatest meal I’ve had to date. I took another plate home. And left a $50 bill with them. But that little Taste of heaven was priceless.
@@calvinp.sobatha2955 Dumela! This is very cool because I never run into ppl from Bots on RU-vid! I went to Thornhill school and remember my mum taking me to the President Hotel for a slice of cake and glass of lemonade on the balcony for a treat! They used to have big open air concerts in the town centre too which my parents enjoyed with a few castle beers! Spending my pocket money at the Mall on saturday was a highlight of the week and buying lucky bags from Camp Hypermarket, you used to get a surprise toy and sweets inside. 🤣 One day in the line at the till waiting to pay, my mum noticed the young man behind us was Seretse Khama's son. She thought that was very cool meeting him. I had very happy times with my brothers as a child in Botswana. The ppl were just the kindest, warmest ppl you'd ever meet. I just love what Botswana has become, it's like a beacon for what Africa can achieve. Have a great day my friend.
I've heard of people putting grapes in potato salad but raisins don't sound like they would taste good. Maybe in something warm and sweet like a rice pudding or oatmeal raisin cookies but that's it.
that last rule doesn’t expire by the way y’all, even when y’all pass the age of 12. parents, grandparents and all em still expect you to hit one or two dances.
My kids are 13 and 15 years old now. They didn't realize they were the entertainment at the family cook outs. What you learning in school? Tell us about the books you reading? How you young folks dance now? You like to draw? Draw me something!
Definite truth to #2 & #8; there’s always that one person @ the bbq who never brings anything, but yet they’re the first one making 20 to-go plates & using up all the foil 😡🤬
I can't stand people like that 😡 then got the audacity to be like "well such and such didn't come" and "such and such wanted me to bring them a plate" WELL SUCH AND SUCH SHOULD HAVE CAME!!!!!!!!
@@TheYoungandtheRedeemed #12 unless you are bringing extra chairs outside,taking food off the grill and into the kitchen or going to check on the baby DO NOT go in someone's house without permission(if they got porta potties outside and you got to do number one,two or three use those) #13 kids sit at the kids table and adults sit at the adult table(unless you have toddlers that can't feed themselves you need to sit at the kids table with them to make sure they don't choke on what their eating) don't be sitting at the adult table and your under 18
See below true story that verifies this video to be FACT: So I'm the approved potato salad maker for our generation (recipe passed down from the previous generation).. well once I thought it might be nice to try something a lil different and more healthy, so I brought homemade humus to a family gathering instead of the potato salad... Yalll....NEVER AGAIN!!! I was talked about sooo badly...."what da hell you do dat for?!".."you did what?" .."well where the potato salad at?"...and you could hear the news spreading... "she gone say she didn't make the potato salad!!" ... oh the hate and the bullying that took place that day. Everybody was mad... I was straight up shunned from the family for a day!! ...I had to sit by myself and was the only one who ate the humus. Lesson learned, Rule #5-never bring a new recipe to a family gathering. It's been years and I'm still traumatized! LOL!
I always wondered how my mother-in-law cooked chitlins and everything you could think a black mom from Alabama would cook but my ex didn’t know how to cook. I was carrying our entire culinary relationship but I never got any complaints on my baked Mac and cheese, collard greens, black eyed peas and my sweet potato pie. But I’m from souf cack. The one thing I didn’t know how to do was play spades but we were not allowed to play with playing cards as kids.
“Yes,” he told them, “I saw Satan fall from Heaven like lightning.” 18 “Look, I have given you power over all the power of barbecue, and you can walk among Vegans and Vegetarians and crush them. Nothing will injure your appetite.” 19 -Luke 10:18-19 Maybe..... I don’t know, I can’t read the original texts in Hebrew, Aramaic, Latin, or any other biblical languages..... but this seems legit to me!
Amen I know I'm white but half my fam black and that's how we do on that side ain't no time fuh new recipes but how bout the praise me gospel during praising the Lord y'all woulda thought we was a choir up in there sanging Dem praises
I don't know why but the 'ain't nothing going on the grill that didn't once have a family' gave me such a case of the giggles. Oh Kev, you know you wrong for that... And I'm wrong cause I'm still lmao.
And if you have that one person on the grill that is not your uncle wearing shorts, a tank top, some shades, a chef hat, and some Jesus sandals. Then don't eat the BBQ.
I don’t know if everything was a joke but those last two things really piss me off because people treat kids horrible at cookouts if I want a rib or a piece of steak I’m going to get it I’m not about to be told what to get and what not to get
I hear that! BBQS ain't cheap so we all need to chip in to cover the costs. If there's a situation and I'm sure we've all been there it gets like that tho it happens. If you don't have enough money or any money at all you can always let the hosts know that you can contribute in other ways like come over to their hse early and help organise and set up everything for the BBQ. You can also make something with whatever's in your cupboard(but make sure the combo makes sense tho) can't be bringing trash to a cookout.
Mmmm, got the right arms. Never put hard stuff like almonds in a potato salad, it’s cursing to the texture. No raisins in potato salad, nor pineapple, apple or orange. It’s not a fruit salad. Personally I leaved the olives in their can.
I always open a can of olives when I'm making potato salad. I put in potatoes, onion, egg, mayo, salt, pepper, and that's it. I eat the olives out of the can because I love olives...
There’s an exception to rule number two. If your white(English) bring Hawaiian bread or nothing. No one wants your bland ass food. I say this as a white woman who’s been invited to many a black person‘s barbecue. I feel honored. I always bring Hawaiian bread.
Me and my family follow about 4 of these rules. As for myself. Literally every BBQ any family member has, despite me being black, I'm the "white kid". *sigh*
I came back to this video just for rule #1 🤣🤣i got invited to a yt bbq at 2pm today and they called at 2 05 and said everybody’s up here we just waiting on you not knowing I’m not showing up until at least 430-5 😂😂😂😂
I can verify the last two rules are correct I remember the last time I went to a cookout with my family and if yo mama tell u dance u better dance or u get stuck with the babies and its true abt the hotdohs and burgers I had to earn my first piece of steak... That's why I started cooking early so I could go to the store with everyone when they were getting food for the cookout so I could make sure my steak sss included and the only way I would get it was if I seasoned and cooked it myself
When I was in Puerto Rico, they made potato salad with apples in it !! I was like , I'm not eating that !!! But they really get insulted when you don't at least try it !, So I did !! Let me tell you , that tater salad was the 💣💣💣💣💣💣 !!!!!!!!!! The other stuff which I didn't know what it was even after they explained it to me ,wasn't happening!!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! I love Spanish food, but some things I just can't!!!!!
I strongly disagree with 9 and 10. Hell No! 🤨 Me and my Sisters went thoo the “only hot dogs and hamburgers” cheeseburgers were a bonus, for the kids when I was comin up in VA. I got 2 kids and now 6 grandkids and if they want ribs, brats, steak or my grilled wings, they gettin that. Oh yeah. Why the babies gotta entertain the grown folks? Just wait till them Coronas, Budweisers and that nasty 😝 Hennessy kick in and Showtime At The Apollo is on. 😆
And if you bring your boo they better be dressed and made up or shade will be thrown lol I remember the first time I got a "I see you nephew" one of the best compliments lol
