Found this on another site..... B)
Griff was at the barbecue and Joel was at the barbecue and I was at
the barbecue; three men standing around a barbecue, sipping beer,
staring at sausages, rolling them backwards and forwards, never leaving
them alone.

We didn't know why we were at the barbecue, we were just drawn there
like moths to a flame. The barbecue was a powerful gravitational force,
a man-magnet.

Joel said the thin ones could use a turn, I said yeah I reckon the
thin ones could use a turn, Griff said yeah they really need a turn -
it was a unanimous turning decision. Griff was the Tong- master, a true
artist, he gave a couple of practice snaps of his long silver tongs, SNAP
SNAP, before moving in, prodding, teasing, and with an elegant flick of
his wrist, rolling them onto their little backs. A lesser tong-man
would've flicked too hard; the sausages would've gone full circle, back
to where they started.

Nice, I said. The others went yeah.

Kevin was passing us, he heard the siren-song- sizzle of the snags,
the barbecue was calling, beckoning, Kevinnnnn ...come. He stuck his
head in and said any room? We said yeah and began the barbecue shuffle;
Griff shuffled to the left, Joel shuffled to the left, I shuffled to the
left, Kevin slipped in beside me, we sipped our beer. Now there were four
of us staring at sausages, and Griff gave me the nod, my cue. I was
second-in-command, and I had to take the raw sausages out of the
plastic bag and lay them on the barbecue; not too close together, not too
farapart, curl them into each other's bodies like lovers -fat ones,
thin ones, herbed and continental.

The chipolatas were tiny, they could easily slip down between the
grill, falling into the molten hot- bead-netherworld below. Carefully I
laid them sideways ACROSS the grill, clever thinking. Griff snapped his
tongs with approval, there was no greater barbecue honour.

P.J. came along, he said looking good, looking good -the irresistible
lure of the barbecue had pulled him in too. We said yeah and did the
shuffle, left, left, left, left, he slipped in beside Kevin, we sipped our
beer.

Five men, lots of sausages. Joel was the Fork-pronger; he had the
fork that pronged the tough hides of the Bavarian bratwursts and he showed
lots of promise. Stabbing away eagerly, leaving perfect little vampire holes
up and down the casing. P.J. was shaking his head, he said I reckon they
cook better if you don't poke them. There was a long silence, you could
have heard a chipolata drop; this new- comer was a rabble-rouser,
bringing in his crazy ideas from outside. He didn't understand the hierarchy;
first the Tong-master, then the sausage-layer, then the Fork-pronger -and
everyone below was just a watcher. Maybe eventually they'll move up the
ladder, but for now - don't rock the Weber.

Dianne popped her head in; hmmm, smells good, she said. She was
trying to jostle into the circle; we closed ranks, pulling our heads down and
our shoulders in, mumbling yeah yeah yeah, but making no room for her.
She was keen, going round to the far side of the barbecue, heading for the
only available space. . . . the gap in the circle where all the smoke and
ashes blew. Nobody could survive the gap; Dianne was going to try.

She stood there stubbornly, smoke blinding her eyes, ashes filling
her nostrils, sausage fat spattering all over her arms and face. Until
she
couldn't take it anymore, she gave up, backed off. Kevin waited till
she was gone and sipped his beer. We sipped our beer; yeah.

Griff handed me his tongs. I looked at him and he nodded. I knew
what was happening, I'd waited a long time for this moment -the abdication.
The tongs weighed heavy in my hands, firm in my grip- was I ready for
the responsibility? Yes, I was. I held them up high and they glinted in
the sun.

Don't forget to turn the thin ones Griff said as he walked away from
the barbecue, disappearing toward the house. Yeah I called back, I will,
I will. I snapped them twice, SNAP SNAP, before moving in, prodding,
teasing, and with an elegant flick of my wrist, rolling them back onto their
little bellies. I was a natural, I was the TONG- MASTER.

Until Griff got back from the toilet.....
