Friday: Is "barbeque" a noun or a verb?
I think it is a noun and the product of our endeavors. Some people think its the act of cooking so thus a verb.

All of the above. And as a noun it means 1) the vessel you cook on, 2) the food you cook, and 3) the gathering associated with the process.
I barbequed barbeque on the barbeque for the barbeque. (although the proper spelling is barbecue)
I believe that in South Africa the same is true of the word braai.
You can braai some braai on the braai at the braai this Saturday. Although @johnmitchell may want to weigh in on this.

Here it is usually in reference to the process of cooking something - low and slow using smoke and fire. If something is cooked that way it is then barbecued.Memphis, TN

Well, yeah... but I was talking specifically about baked beans. Just in my experience I don't typically see baked beans with brisket. But... I only ever see baked beans here in Pork Butt-land...South of Nashville - BGE XL - Alfresco 42" ALXE - Alfresco Versa Burner - Sunbeam Microwave -

Originally a verb. Now a noun. from wiki:
Linguists have suggested the word barbacoa migrated from the Caribbean and into other languages and cultures; it moved from Caribbean dialects into Spanish, then Portuguese, French, and English. According to the OED, the first recorded use of the word in English was a verb in 1661, in Edmund Hickeringill's Jamaica Viewed: "Some are slain, And their flesh forthwith Barbacu'd and eat".[2] The word barbecue was published in English in 1672 as a verb from the writings of John Lederer, following his travels in the North American southeast in 1669-70.[5] The first known use of the word as a noun was in 1697 by the British buccaneer William Dampier. In his New Voyage Round the World, Dampier wrote, " ... and lay there all night, upon our Borbecu's, or frames of Sticks, raised about 3 foot from the Ground".[6]
Samuel Johnson's 1756 dictionary gave the following definitions:[7]
- "To Barbecue – a term for dressing a whole hog" (attestation to Pope)
- "Barbecue – a hog dressed whole"
While the standard modern English spelling of the word is barbecue, variations including barbeque and truncations such as bar-b-q or BBQ may also be found.[8] The spelling barbeque is given in Merriam-Webster and the Oxford Dictionaries as a variant.[9][10] In the southeastern United States, the word barbecue is used predominantly as a noun referring to roast pork, while in the southwestern states cuts of beef are often cooked.[11][page needed]
