According to the captions it �s grill out It must be an American expression as I have never heard it. In fact, that whole clip was very interesting as it is so unlike Australian English. If I went to the US, I �m not sure I �d understand the locals ...
I�m assuming it means to have a BBQ, but perhaps somone else can clarify. Cookout is another American expression for BBQ.

Yes, Jayho, We commonly say "grill out" or "cook out" or "barbecue", all meaning the same thing. Bruce |
