The meme is specifically referring to the quality of food at black cookouts versus white cookouts. If you've been to both, you know.

Naw. Mfers up at the break of dawn to start the fire don't care about that. That's just some eagerness to support racial stereotypes. All kinds of folks can throw down. If you've been to any of them, you know.

It's okay for black people to be good at something. It doesn't have to threaten you.

I said everyone is capable of good game. No need for the royal stretch there.

I have been to both, and the stereotypes are wrong. Cooking skill is not inherent to race or culture, it's within the individual at the stove.

Wouldn't white cookouts be steak and burgers and that sorta stuff

They're all kinds of things, and this whole concept is some divisive nonsense. People out here going to bat for racial stereotypes.
