[quote:Anonymous Coward 69318212:MV8zODM5MjQ5XzY5MDU0ODc2X0JCNUU5QjM0] [quote:Epic Beard Guy:MV8zODM5MjQ5XzY5MDU0ODI0XzI4MjcwRTVE] If you are using high temps, you are not barbecuing, you are grilling. Barbecue is a low temp process that makes cheap cuts tender, and tasty. A rack of pork ribs can be grilled in about a half hour, but they wont be edible. Give them 4 or 5 hours at a very low temp, and it will be the best meal you ever had. [/quote] :hesright: [/quote]
Original Message
Just when you thought it was safe to BBQ, new research indicates that grilling meats at high temperature will produce Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons or PAH's for short. PAH exposure is through inhalation and through skin exposure, from a China study. PAH can cause lung disease and DNA mutation...(less than 50%)
Notice how cigarettes were demonized and how 2nd hand smoke can effect others. As a result, you can't smoke outside in various areas. Eventually I can see this happening with grilling as people become effected by PAH. Watch the lawsuits and then the banning of an American grilling Tradition...
