It also can be a verb showing this way of cooking (John plans to barbecue pork.). It also can be used as an adjective describing the way a food was prepared (Max always ordered barbecue ribs when he went out to eat.).

Barbeque means the exact same things and can be used in the exact same ways. It���s merely a variant in spelling ��� of which there are several, including bar-b-cue, bar-b-que, and BBQ.

Barbecue is the most common spelling of the various versions, however. The variants typically are seem in advertisements and restaurant names.
