Cooking outside was called camping.

That one I know is wrong.

The fifties were the birth of the great "grilling movement".

Notice I did not say barbecuing. That is something else entirely.

And with the advent of the Weber Kettle Grill, BBQing really took off! IIRC, that was in the early 70’s.

As I recall the fifties, the height of in ness was to build or have built a brick bar b q. The structure was about thirty 6 inches high with a mortared in iron grill. The grill was over a fire box that actually had a chimney.

This is the classic design but the grill is missing.
