to cooking food directly over a source of dry heat, typically with the food sitting on a metal grate that leaves 'grill marks.' In the UK and other
Commonwealth countries this would be referred to as barbecueing, although grilling is usually faster and hotter than the American sense of the word 'barbecue,' which does not necessarily imply grill marks. Grilling is usually done outdoors on charcoal grills or gas grills, a recent trend is the concept of infrared grilling. Grilling may also be performed using stovetop 'grill pans,' which have raised metal ridges for the food to sit on."
676:
or something, the use of "barbecuing" here was problematic, especially because it was coupled with a link to an article that focuses on the styles of food called "barbecue," rather than on an article that discusses what was intended. (Certainly some people do prepare barbecue for their tailgates. A friend of mine prepared 68 pounds of Boston butt for our tailgate before the Gator Bowl in
January 2008. But the sentence appears to encompass the cooking of more ordinary stuff like burgers and hot dogs, not just "barbecue.")

all. Unless there are more references other than the inventors blog/column, this term will be changed. Tailgating is a very rapidly growing industry, and to be accurate is going to be important for all who are researching tailgating. Thanks. I suggest we give 2 weeks for the poster of this to provide some references to support both these claims. Or rewrite the definition to include other terms that are more common such as "party", "crew", "krewe", "club", etc...

I don't understand the relevance of this. Going by the opening statement, there has to be a vehicle with a tailgate (presumably the host's vehicle) for people to party around, but what could whether the guests' vehicles have tailgates – or even whether all guests have vehicles at all – possibly have

Tailgating parties have become the most objectionable visitors to natural settings in the USA, e.g. river-side picnic spots, due to their noisy and oafish behaviour. Posses of jerks in baseball caps and tattoos with their gross troglodyte families turn up in their roaring crew-cab utes, drop the gate

I don't understand the relevance of this. This article is at the title "Tailgate party", not "Tailgating". I've checked the move log, and it reports that the page has never been at "Tailgating" or any other title. As such, what, pray, makes you think even 1%, let alone 51%, of

I added a photo of former

Thus, while the word "barbecuing" is certainly sometimes used in the sense of a generic term for "cooking outdoors on a grill," including in various regions of the United States, and while people sometimes say "I'm having friends over for a barbecue this
Saturday" when they're cooking chicken breasts

I believe most other
English speakers around the world only ever use the word in the British sense, (ie in New Zealand, Australia, India, etc). This may be because people outside of N.America don't routinely have parties around the tailgates of cars. They may well be unique to the US (and possibly

The so called source of tailgating has been removed from this page for a couple reasons. 1. there was no cite or proof that it began at Yankee satdium in 1960. 2. there are multiple stories published on several websites and in magazines that talk of tailgating starting in the early 20s at college

Tailgation is not a common word and does not extend anywhere except the inventors sports blog/column. I would suggest that the term Tailgation be either removed or clarified and the more common terms for groups of tailgaters be added to this section/definition. It is not a common term at

I’ve twice removed the “see also” link to the Party on

The "Food and Drink" section has games listed and then there is a "Lawn games" section below with some of the same games. (BTW. "lawn games" is a confusing heading, since tailgating is usually done in parking lots. No lawn.
