Short Barbequed Poems

A barbequed jerk chicken
Saltfish and okra
Snapper & avocado
Fruit & rum cake with
Coconut ice-cream
Steel drium high
Fry!...

we start with a willing cow
maybe not willing
butchers take the beast apart
section by section
she’s warm on my plate
barbequed
beef...

The porterhouse is the king
crowned with herbs and salts
barbequed medium rare
each savory slice
cut thick and crispy 
flavorful

Rachel Turkey Barbequed

Size of big turkey had been rude;
Not fit in over and caused a feud;
Answer sought;
We had fought;
Big turkey had to be barbequed.

Jim Horn

This actually happened to Rachel Maddow....

Last night I showed my humble gratitude
To a sweet sow with pulchritude
She served as a shield
Or I would've squealed
When the farmer wanted me barbequed

Now, all she eats is pizza; Totino's
Whines that she needs help with the bambinos
But diapers are crappy
Not a chore for pappy
I'd rather gamble at the casino...

I am the polar bear who loves to eat sweets.
You can have hams, chickens and other meets.
I like peppermint, chocolate and gingerbread.
Especially those men baked by my cousin Ed.

I am the polar bear who loves to taste icing every day.
Frosting makes my pancakes taste a particularly wonderful way.
You can have barbequed pork, hamburgers, steaks and such.
My mouth is ready for sugars, vanilla, and a cinnamon touch....

Grandpa and his kin gathered at the mill,
“It’s n’uther thanksgiving, y’all! Eat yer fill!
Hey cuzz Joe Bob, what’s the deal?
Whose turkey did y’all steal?”
What turkey? Y’all be chompin on road kill!

Yes siree y’all might have to chaw some,
But this barbequed swill be awesome!
Be a shame for it to waste,
So salt and pepper to taste,
And feast on some almost fresh possum!


Inspired by :
my poetry friend Carolyn Devonshire. : )...

Barbequing on the grill
Prime steak such a thrill
Mouth watering I just spill
Waiting for this treat
Sauce smells oh so sweet
Give me meat—
Bam!

Peanut butter and jelly is my go-to sandwich every day.
You can have your turkey, beef, and salami, all your very way.
I care not for pickles, relish, ranch, mustard, or mayo.
Please hang on to your onions, lettuce, and bit of tomato.

Peanut butter and jelly is the sandwich of my dream.
I do not care about pork – barbequed or steamed.
Just make sure the jelly is grape, and not strawberry.
You can save the meats and cheeses for my cousin Harry....

The ancient slivered 
   white moon piece 
   hangs   webbed,
Quite entangled
   in the unyielding   wintering 
   of maple's   stark branching.

As watch   watching   does he watch,
   that thin silvered   white moon crescent,
   seeing all from   his high perch,

His ancient partner,
the weary   beleaguered planet
   Earth, slow-roasting
     from green
     to tan
     to brown,
Barbequed   by fellow   traveler,
   the well-respected 
   Mr. Sun.

Tempting pieces of glazed pork;
dressed in honey juice
it’s summer’s  cook-out by night-- 
grilled chunks dance on flame
herbs thrilling moist buds,
a zesty 
WHIRL!


Barbequed flavor warms
paste soaked in rice wine,
laughter ringing from delight
achara completes
eve's luscious fete--
sinful binge
YEAH!


For Kim Rodrigues Summer Cooking    7/10/2018
‘achara’—asian appetizer garnished with tomatoes, 
cucumbers and green pickled mangoes....

Are you in the mood
  for a poem about food
Something marinated, dude
  or grilled, barbequed

     Tangentially: 

Have you ever viewed  
  a painting in the nude
Meaning (if you're shrewd)
  that you are no prude... 

And would you ever collude
  or possibly intrude -- 
wade into a family feud
  a cesspool of moral turpitude 

     Back-on-Track:  

Is your gastromo-palate imbued
  with delights that include
a smorgasboard of seafood
  dainty caviar, finger-lickin'-good...
