I always wonder how culturally authentic these gimmicky restaurants are. Like realistically hardly anybody in America grills food in the backyard. I do it maybe 3x/year and only in the summer. I’ve seen my dad multiple times grill with snow on the ground, but he was an outlier.
Exactly, it’s regional cooking not “American” cooking. A Texas bbq is different from a Chicago or Oakland bbq, and some people insist theirs is the only “real” kind.

I think it depends on the region of America. I grill a lot in the back yard and so do a lot of friends and family.
