Mangal (barbecue)

Mangal (Armenian: Մանղալ, Azerbaijani: manqal, Turkish: mangal, Persian: منقل‎‎, Hebrew: מנגל‎, Russian: мангал) is the Middle Eastern name for barbecue, referring both to the event and the grilling apparatus itself.

Etymology

The word mangal is Turkish, derived from the Arabic word manqal (منقل) meaning "portable" and originally referred to portable indoors heaters mostly replaced by Western-type stoves.

Culinary

The menu always has a kind of meat. A typical mangal meal will consist of grilled vegetables, kebabs of various kinds and meatballs named köfte. Grilled chicken wings, chicken breasts and offal is also common. Salads and other cold foods accompany the meal. In Turkey, şalgam or ayran are common drinks during mangal parties as well as rakı.

Sociality

Beyond just consuming food, mangal often means a family or friends gathering. Generally held in gardens or picnic areas, it stresses the hospitality towards the guests. Accordingly, it resembles braai of South Africa and its local equivalents worldwide.

Barbecue

Barbecue (also barbeque, BBQ and barby/barbies) is both a cooking method and an apparatus. The generally accepted differences between barbecuing and grilling are cooking durations and the types of heat used. Grilling is generally done quickly over moderate-to-high direct heat that produces little smoke, while barbecuing is done slowly over low, indirect heat and the food is flavored by the smoking process.

The word barbecue when used as a noun can refer to the cooking method, the meat cooked in this way, the cooking apparatus (the "barbecue grill" or simply "barbecue"), or to an event where this style of food is featured. Used as an adjective, "barbecued" refers to foods cooked by this method. The term is also used as a verb for the act of cooking food in this manner. Barbecuing is usually done out-of-doors by smoking the meat over wood or charcoal. Restaurant barbecue may be cooked in large brick or metal ovens designed for that purpose. There are numerous regional variations of barbecuing, and it is practiced around many areas of the world.

Dallas (1978 TV series) (season 1)

The television show Dallas originally aired as a five-episode miniseries starting on the first Sunday of April, 1978. Though the show was never intended to continue beyond the initial five episodes, its popularity led to the creation of an additional twelve full seasons, ending after the thirteenth.

Production

The original mini series was shot over six weeks during the winter of 1977, on location in Dallas, Texas. The Cloyce Box Ranch served as the first 'South Fork Ranch' exterior, and a Swiss Avenue building was used for the interior stage sets.
