It could be argued that having a BBQ exemplifies the human urge to cook in its purest form. Standing around the remnants of an open fire, poking at slabs of meat? It doesn't get more caveman-like than that. Perhaps that is part of the reason that dads tend to love it so much. A grilling session can truly be good for the soul.

As if that wasn't enough, the humble barbecue also represents other things that many people love, like relaxing, the summertime, and hanging out with friends and family. This and the food gives ample inspiration to memes, which unsurprisingly want to show their thanks by making humor out of what we sling on the grill. Whether you are a burger lover or more of a hotdog kind of guy, you have no choice but to relate. These memes make a good accompaniment to any cookouts you may be attending this summer.
