Barbecue jokes

My friend just sent me this:

New Standard Operating Procedures released today. Please learn.
BBQ RULES We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore it is important to
refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity. When a man
volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:
Routine...
(1) The woman buys the food.
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables
and makes dessert.
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary
cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.
(4) The woman remains outside the compulsory three metre exclusion zone where the
exuberance of testosterone and other manly bonding activities can take place without the
interference of the woman.

Here comes the important part:
(5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.
More routine...
(6) The woman goes inside to organise the plates and cutlery.
(7) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great. He thanks her and
asks if she will bring another beer while he flips the meat.
Important again:
(8) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL
AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
More routine...
(9) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread,
utensils, napkins, sauce and brings them to the table.
(10) After eating, the woman clears the table and
does the dishes.
And most important of all:
(11) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM
for his cooking efforts.
(12) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed
her 'night off ', and, upon seeing her annoyed reaction,
concludes that there's just no pleasing some women.
