      Grilling is fast with medium to high temps (10 minutes at 375-700) while BBQ is slow and low temps (many hours at 200-225)

      IMHO, you cannot really BBQ a steak (Strip/Ribeye), hotdog or hamburger but you can BBQ or Grill a chicken.

      ^^^ This is the correct answer. Time and temperature dictate whether it's grilling or BBQ. Sauce has nothing to do with it (and is a crutch anyway, unless we're talking about wings or something).

          Why not? I mean "why would you", of course, but it should work just fine.

            If you wanted a slowly cooked, smoked hot dog, it would be a big waste of time, but it would still be cooked via a BBQ method.

              Here's a question for ya'll.

              What do you call cooking steaks or hotdogs or burgers on a grill?

              Grilling

              OK, and what's the difference between grilling and BBQ?

              Grilling is just applying the meat to the grill to cook. BBQ requires a sauce.

              BBQ is a specific cooking style that may or may not use a sauce (don't talk about sauce in some states in the south) grilling is another specific type of cooking that's different then BBQ... but when we talk about a summer party we always say BBQ around here even though we are technically grilling.

              That tells me its a local phrasology thing. thanks.

                I'm in the north but I am a no sauce BBQ/steak person. My motto is, "If it needs sauce you didn't do it right." 🙂

                Here Here. now that said, we have some top notch steakhouses around here that make some awesome reductions.. put it on the plate, then the steak on top.. hmmmm..

                  You definitely cool.. but again, why? 😛

                    I don't think there is any issue with calling a gathering of people where food will be cooked outside a "BBQ", that's pretty common terminology. And a nice reduction sauce on a steak is great... but most "BBQ sauces" are not. But only mustard or vinegar based sauces ever get near my BBQ. That sugary nonsense has no place on good 'Q.

                            Got a crock pot full of "shot and a beer" chicken for tacos. Beer, tequila, my homemade taco seasoning, citrus juices, etc. We're also giving the new InstaPot it's inaugural run later with some magic black beans.

                                  Sounds like Rachel is special, but what about you and the kids? 😉

                                        TBH, I couldn't identify what I had. Something with a Italian cheese sauce, fried spätzle (what's the English term?) and some vegetables, mostly uncooked.

                                        It tasted as good as it sounds like.
