Hmm ... it wasn't intended to be disgusting, but I see your point.

My intended point was that it is obviously more manly to have skills
in preparing meat.

Well, which is it you want to know about? Manliness? Or General
Usefulness?

Seems to me there's a lot of time available for tending the fire while
the dough is rising, and a lot of time available to knead and shape the
dough while you're waiting for that magical 190 degrees in the pork
butt. So why are you trying to wimp out here?

Yes; I agree wholeheartedly.
Men that bake bread are probably homosexurals.

Bread makes you fat. Meat makes you build tall buildings, conquer
space and feel-up the home coming queen.

You do the math.

I am a great preparer of meat; grilling, barbecuing, and smoking.
However, my level of general usefulness is admittedly low; unless you
want a great smoked rib or other meat, or a grilled steak, or a brat,
etc.

All of the above. Learn to do everything so the woman of the cave has plenty
of energy left to do what you really want her to do.

Well barbeque and smoked meat both suck ass, so I guess I'd have to go
with Baker by default.

Really good, homemade bread is amazing, but doesn't really compare to
really great bbq.

However, throw in pastries, like hand-made puff-pastry, croissants,
sticky buns, napoleons, ... and now you're talking.

btw, this reminds me of that one episode of KITCHEN CONFIDENTIAL where
the pastry chef (Xander from Buffy) and teh Fish chef (Harold from
HAROLD AND KUMAR) are having a contest about whehter customers prefer
fish or cake. The outcome was very funny...

A rack of smoked ribs and a loaf of fresh bread make a damn fine picnic.

I'm with you on the fresh bread part. Smoked anything sucks ass.

Good bread is easily and cheaply bought, good barbecued meat, not so much.

I'd go for the meat master.

I don't know who you are, but you are correct.

(PS--also depends on the woman, as far as BBQ'er vs. Baker. I suck at
baking bread...it's one aspect of cooking I just can't master. It's
sad because my mom makes THEE best caramel cinnamon rolls in the
world, and I can't bake them...even with her recipe. On the other
hand, I am quite skilled with the grill.)

Being a Gemini, I do both very well. And guys, it's a way show
balance between your cavemanliness and your Alan Aldaness.

My best is olive and grain bread and mixed grill.

We entertain a lot for friends family and business, and not meaning
(really) to brag, I'm always asked for formulas. I never follow a
recipe, only my instinct, but finally started to journal my
ingredients.

My most covented get together is the summer BBQ when I serve my best
bread as big ass sandwhich buns on which you can put the grilled
animals:

Squirrel, moose, horse, venison, rabbit, frog legs, and flash seared
tuna. (each treated with their own marinade)

I send a menu out in advance with pictures (respectively) of our
dinner victims:

Rocky, Bulllwinkle, Mr Ed, Bambi, Bugs, Kermit and Charley.

Well Guv, Imnsho JoeSpareBedroom gave the answer that true men give.
A true man needs three (3) tings
1 A home, could be house or cave.
2 Food, BBQ and bread are good
3 Sex, until he can't walk.
You will notice 1 & 2 have alternates, #3 is singular.

And what do you have against Neanderthals? They were a peaceful
humanoid tribe that got wiped out by European homo sapiens,
even though they had a larger brain capacity. Probably, they
would have been more sophisticated than us humans.

I don't know who you are, but you are correct.

(PS--also depends on the woman, as far as BBQ'er vs. Baker. I suck at
baking bread...it's one aspect of cooking I just can't master. It's
sad because my mom makes THEE best caramel cinnamon rolls in the
world, and I can't bake them...even with her recipe. On the other
hand, I am quite skilled with the grill.)

Thanks. Coincidentally, I was actually born in Logan, but moved away
as a teen.

What's with Logan and the horse thing?

I start my bread dough the day before, putting the rub on my brisket
and/or pork shoulder at the same time. The next day I get the meat in
the smoker, later getting the bread in the oven; hopefully to be done at
the same time. Now......I go and tap off a large mug of my homebrew as
I wait. A few mugs of overly hopped and carbonated IPA makes the
waiting a lot easier.

I'm still waiting for someone who knows about and has baked "Salt Risin (or
rising)" bread.
