The Barbecue Kettle The old barbecue kettle is the new status symbol! It has reached the top rung in the social ladder. You would recognize it or guess where it is u><*d these days! No longer is the barbecue kettle a dark old metal pot. with or without legs, hiding unsuccessfully like a fugitive from an ironmonger’s shop in one corner of the backyard or garage. This season it has turned into a swank home furnishings piece to be used in the loveliest outdoor and indixir settings. Now in beautiful bright, deep colors of the spectrum, it enhances the decor of a room or. couched in stylized cabinets. It serves as a piece of fine furniture. From the time man struck two rocks together and saw the spark touch off a flame in the dry grass or nearby piece of wood. barbecuing has been making the social sesne. Likewise, and with as much flare, from the prehistoric firestone to Weber's new penthouse balcony kettle, it has also been making social changes in the sixial scene. A persistent social climber over the ages, it has pulled itself up the social ladder consecutively from the caveman's lair, to the open prairie, to the beach to the backyard, to the patio and now, believe it or not, right up to the high rise apartment and even the living room fireplace. As barbecue cooker was a hot rock on which to cook meat placi*d by primitive men over burning wood or charcoal. There is evidence that charcoal was used before 4.000 B.C. and that the name conies from the AngloSaxon wmrd “cearrtan” which means "to crackle” and is believed to be the father of the word "char.” Then, before the days of refrigeration, came the crude iron pot of the pioneer which was used to smoke food for preservation purposes as well as for cooking. This was followed by sequence of various open fire utensils of the trial-and-error method. It was that industrial genius, Henry Ford, who found away to make charcoal into balls, or briquet*, for wen burning. His new idea was born in an attempt U> make use us waste sawed-off

board ends then used in the manufacturing of cars. But Ford was not to see his innovation become a commercial success. Gas and electricity were still too new in those days to make cooking with charred wood fashionable. Barbecuing, generally speaking, skipped a generation after Ford before cooking over charCoal briquets caught fire with the public and became the range. The practice became highlighted in the combination open grill and kettle used by the flaming youth of the roaring 20’s on the society beaches stretching from Nice to Newport and the west coast. Finally came the advent of the Weber covered barbecue kettle which caused a social upheaval. This advent of the Weber covered barbecue kettel which caused a social upheaval. This new cooking device brought Mother out of the kitchen into the bright, clear air of the backyard . . . and even more importantly, it turned Dad from the chief cooking on-looker into the chief cooker-on-er. Even Sis and Sonny got into the act with teenage barbecue parties or "cannibal roasts,” as the swing set calls them. The Weber covered kettle, which has bcome almost generic in barbecuing, created an entire new’ method of cooking entertaining outdoors. The covered kettle, or smoke oven as it is sometimes called by g< unnets, was developed in part because charring was almost impossible in them and in part because they
