Passer: As I understand it original, traditional Caribbean barbecue amounted to digging a hole in the ground and filling it with fire and goat. I don't think there's a monopoly on the word.

Yep, the grill is the bit at the top of the oven (but not the hobs). A barbecue is the thing that you bring out in summer to drink beer near while eating mostly raw meat.

Based on the modern American usage, and the fact that barbecuing (cooking over hours of time over low-to-moderate heat with wood) is in almost all ways different from grilling (cooking quickly over moderate-to-high heat), there is some understandable disagreement with calling it 'grilling'. Modern-day barbecuing has more to do with traditional Carribbean barbecue than it does with grilling, for example.
That said if people want to call grilling, barbecuing, whatever. The terms are so muddled already that unless you do (or eat the results of) an actual slow-cooked barbecue you can't appreciate the difference anyway. *shrug*
I've got a group interview tommorow morning, and I'm not sure of exactly what to expect? (it's for retail, but slightly more upmarket/guardian style customer base)
When I go to the store, I should get some shredded cheese to make a picture like Passer posted. Is there a kind of bread that is better for this than regular sandwich bread?

Any sort of sliced French bread.

Talk sales, and keep it simple enough for older people to understand.

I like crusty sour dough for it, but this is also because I like a somewhat hard crust when it's all done. Good for gnawing or for dipping into soup/broth.
I bought some cheddar that was on special offer. It is a diversification of a product line called "Seriously Strong" that is called "Seriously Farmy".
I have no idea what that is supposed to mean.
Yeah, that's... odd.
What's it taste like?
Like a reasonably mature cheddar, but not especially crumbly and containing quite a lot of lactate crystals. I think it's the latter that they were going for, along with the association of "farmhouse" cheddar.

Ah. Well, extra lactate crystals never hurt anybody.
In Swedish the barbeque is the actual event in which you grill stuff on a grill.
This is a grill. On which you grill stuff when you're having a barbeque goddamnit can I stop typing barbequeue.
Actually, come to think of it that was how we used the word in NZ too. You can have a noun-barbecue, at which you verb-grill things on a noun-grill, but you usually don't verb-barbecue anything.

Wow, this coffee is really good.
I hope I'm not resuming my caffeine addiction, but this is the third time I've had coffee in the past week. Normally I have a cup every 2 weeks at the most.

I have verb-barbecued the shit out of things in the past and I will do it again in the future.

Best use for a broiler.

And Aldo, I'd contribute with this to the religion thread. Should such a thing exist.

I may make some and have it with soup for dinner.

Because I just ate it!

Incorrect. Chicken Cordon Blue is the best use of a broiler.

It's hot enough to brown the outside and it's not like you're trying to really cook the inside much anyway so broiling works.

You... don't... Um. Chicken Kiev doesn't use the broiler.
At least, it never has in all the recipes I've seen for it.

Aphrodite? Gee? In the Constellation of the Black Widow?
In the UK that item itself would be called a barbecue. Example:
