World’s Largest Barbecue Is 76-Feet-Long, Can Cook Four Tonnes of Meat at a Time

“It has 24 doors – 12 on this side, 12 on the other,”
said owner Terry Folsom, proudly describing his prized possession. The pit can cook four tons of meat at a time, and also has a walk-in cooler with space for kegs attached to beer taps on the outside. Surprisingly, the heat that powers the beauty comes from a small fire that burns only a couple of cords of wood. A tube carries the heat along the length of the entire pit.

Your Say

"...only a couple of cords of wood."

Not that impressive if one actually knows how much a couple cords of wood consists of.

And also I can't help but wonder how often four tonnes of meat is needed at one gathering.


But having said all that...pretty cool.

We can't have sex without a consent form, and we can't man-spread, but I guess we men can still do that culmination of manly art and creativity: cook some serious barbecue.

That is, until the harridans decide that this too is provocative.

I wonder if one puts the cows in live in one end and get barbecue and burgers from the other?

Viewing the rear of that rig, with the profile of the state of Texas showing, it could have another valuable use. Incineration of illegal aliens comes to mind. Or, barbecued greasers.

Terry, Good idea. Even better if the fuel is shrink wrapped enviro-nazis, global warmists and Watermelons of all color.

Oh my, all these morbid, barbaric hints at cannibalism! Shame on you gu . . . . .

Oh wait, that brings to mind the likelihood that vegans make good eating, especially if packed in sea salt and slow roasted.
