I love BBQs. They are a part
of the summer for me. BBQ
means fresh air, sun, family
and friends, good food, less
work inside the kitchen…..

1. BBQ vocabulary
"We're going to grill out at my summer home. Wanna come?”
What does "grill out" mean?
When we say "grill out" we mean that we are going to grill food on the barbecue. A typical BBQ would include hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken, corn and perhaps vegetable skewers, and maybe fish.

2. Inviting people
Invitations have three parts: 1. asking if someone is available2. giving details about the BBQ3. inviting the person to attend
For example:
“What are you doing next Saturday? We're having some people over for a meal. Would you like to come?”
"Have you got anything on for this evening? A couple of us are going to a bar after work if you'd like to come."
