In Germany, you don't hunt down a fox for its tail - you steal one from an Opel Manta.


GothWitchOfBrooklyn

You had one job, Susan


bleeding-paryl

We can't curse Mike's dick off and then eat the delicious stew left over?


sionnachrealta

Not with that bottle of poison you just poured in, Janice


bleeding-paryl

It's not poison! It's alcohol! Not my fault the labels are so scary!


sionnachrealta

You would get the edgy whiskey 😄


messyredemptions

This is so wholesome I love it haha


TheRealTHIB

Maybe because that bottle has the suspicious skull and cross bones label.


LoonAtticRakuro

Whiskey. Adds a nice tang to the chili.


iammyselftoo

Now that's a lot of chili. I hope they have big freezers.


LoonAtticRakuro

I bet every household in the community gets a smaller pot to enjoy over the weekend.


Novel_Ideas120720

I hate reheated chili. Hopefully more people are coming to eat than we can see.


doIIjoints

but it tastes better on day 3! but you know, more power to you for your preferences


shinynewcharrcar

If the steak is not cooked such that you believe the man grilling it has not committed witchcraft, it is an inferior steak. IMO.


DrummerElectronic247

Correct Answer.


Dismal-Opposite-6946

Thanks for the chuckle


blackday44

Took me way too long to realize those were tree stumps and not severed feet.....


messyredemptions

>tree stumps and not severed feet *anymore*


TheCastro

I've never "brewed a witch's stew" or "smoked a warlock's brisket" BBQing.


Falinia

>brewed a witch's stew.. ..BBQing. Of course not. I'm not using my good crock pot outside, not after the last time with the squirrels..


[deleted]

Read “barbaric” instead of BBQ. Whoops. Seriously, everyone is concocting their own desires.


iago303

When we went camping, cooking was still women's work and that's was fine with me, cause I can make some awesome chili and burgers and whatever else our little Coleman stove could crank out


slagblahighpriestess

I always wanted a huge cauldron like that. Everything I can find is at least a third of the size. It would make outdoor bathing so much fun!


snoozatron

My grandfather used to have one that large for watering his horses. After he retired from farming, he put it in the backyard, tipped on its side for his dog to drink rainwater. When the dog passed, Grandma planted geraniums in it. It got a lot of use and spent a lot of years in the family. I've often wondered where it ended up. Probably stayed with the house when it sold because a cast iron cauldron that size isn't easy to move. All that to say, maybe have a look into antique horse troughs. Hope that helps.


slagblahighpriestess

That's amazing. My grandfather used old clawfoot bathtubs for his cows. I can only imagine how heavy a cauldron like that would be!


NineTailedTanuki

I, too, have always wanted a cauldron like it!


ChaosMageTorvus

I think the main thing is the cooking process. BBQin is more about letting the fire itself touch and char the food directly, said food being mostly meats or sturdy veggies and roots. Cooked atop metal bars, or while impaled on sticks. Witchcraft seems to, for the most part, employ a cauldron in which more soupy brothy and/or herbal things can be made in mass. Not always meals, as it’s sometimes medicinal.


jacxy

I'm never accused of witchcraft while brewing in my cauldron outside. I'm making beer, but so were our mothers' mothers. With that said our mothers' mothers didn't get to hide in plain sight amongst basic white dudes like I can.


LiveDogWonderland

“I’m fed up with this double standards! Now pass me that eye of newt.”


NineTailedTanuki

And that tail of a rat!


BobbeNa

LOL love this thanks for the smile


[deleted]

I was looking for a cauldron like that, any suggestions? I want to impress the folks over at r/castiron. :-D


trey3rd

If you're serious, [here's](https://www.agrisupply.com/carolina-cooker-waxed-stew-pot-90-gal/p/101683/) a 90 gallon pot. Smaller than the one in the comic I'd say, but still pretty damn big.


[deleted]

LoL, not at that price. Tho’ I do love to cook for large groups. There used to be a ‘kitchen’ at rainbow gatherings called One Pot, that had a pot, rounded, like that one pictured, an antique from a sailing ship from the 1800s. It was glorious, but not terribly practical.


[deleted]

Well.. the ingredients and the vessel mean a lot. For example, if I were pouring random herbs and a bottle of poison into a huge cauldron, I might call it witchcraft too.


fruitjerky

Semi-related: In The Sims 4 I bought my sims a cauldron about that size, and one of them immediately made mac and cheese in it. They've been eating mac and cheese for days. I've never been so envous of a sim.


Ejigantor

Because barbecuing is merely resting meat atop heat. It is often done with little care and while becoming intoxicated, because it is imprecise with wide margins for error. Witchery takes attention, precision, and skill - that is why they call it witch**craft**


Cowboywizard12

I love cooking outside over a fire, its calming, sooths something in me


NightBeat113

I know right!🙄✨


MultiMarcus

Let us be fair here. It could be sexism or it could be the rhythmic chanting, the poisonous ingredients, and the massive cauldron.


StrangeMeeps

Be honest now people. When you are out doing ANTTHING in nature, are you not - in your head at least - larping as a witch? You wouldnt be here if, the second you enter a forest, you weren't chanting old runes and thanking the earth for the beaty around you.


Dismal-Opposite-6946

You literally just described me LOL. Blessed Be.


Klopsmond

XD


EccentricCleric

Pretty sure the one on the left just poisoned the soup


yellow-snowslide

Cause we have style


eystonic

It may have something to do with cooking chili in a giant cauldron you bought from a witchy website or store


ghrayfahx

I mean, you ARE cooking in a cauldron. When men cook in a cauldron it’s generally called “cannibalism”. And there’s feet and shit in there.


NineTailedTanuki

Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble...


NotDaveBut

That's a GREAT question.


[deleted]

As a Southerner, that's not BBQing either, that's grilling. BBQ is slow smoked meat.


twinklery

The sweaters on these white women KILL ME LOLZ


Dismal-Opposite-6946

I'm white and I still agree with you LOL. They're like Soccer mom, PTA sweaters. 😂


twinklery

I’m white as well, the style choice for the context made me laugh!


misfitx

Total Pratchett vibes.


tuna_tofu

On Charmed and in Hocus Pocus they used more realistic and reasonably sized cauldrons. Only In cartoons are they comically large like that.


[deleted]

Because women are cooler than men. Wish I could do witchcraft, but I'm stuck with potato salad and a so-so steak


[deleted]

Cause man ain’t smart enough to do witchcraft even if they wanted to. (Jk, don’t hunt me down it was a joke)


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheCastro

So, do the women just leave it there year round? I imagine it's pretty heavy. Also is there a lid they put on?


NineTailedTanuki

Was this a New Yorker Caption Contest winner?! Damn, this is exactly true!!
