George: Step aside! The king of the cookout is here. I'm ready to work my magic on this barbecue.
乔治:借过!国王的野餐来了。我要开始施展我的魔法了。

Sophia: Here are the burgers and hot dogs. The kids are pretty hungry.
索菲亚:这里堆满了汉堡和热狗。孩子们个个都饥肠辘辘了。

George: Hold on. I need to put on the charcoal. Now I'm ready to fire up this barbecue. Where's the lighter fluid?
乔治:等一会。我需要加上木炭。现在我要点火烤肉了。火机油在哪里?

Sophia: It's right here.
索菲亚:就在这里。

George: Good. Oh, I almost forgot. I'll need to gather some wood to burn to give the meat that smoky flavor.
乔治:好。啊,我差点忘了。我需要收集更多柴火,这样才能将肉烤出烟熏味来。

Sophia: Why don't I do that while you get things going?
索菲亚:我去抱柴火,你留在这里继续吧?

George: No, I need to do things my way. I also need to make my world-famous barbecue sauce. The meat won't taste very good if I don't baste it with my special sauce each time I flip it.
乔治:不,我要按自己的方式来。我还要做我那举世闻名的烧烤酱。如果每次翻面时不涂上我特制的酱,这肉的味道就不会很香。

Sophia: Okay, how about if I get the corn on the cob ready for grilling?
索菲亚:好,要不我来烤玉米棒子?

George: I'll do that. I have my own special way of preparing the corn.
乔治:我自己会做。我要用自创的秘诀来烤玉米。

Sophia: Is there anything I can do to hurry things along?
索菲亚:为了早点吃上美味,我能帮上什么忙吗?

George: Perfection takes time. Would you tell Michelangelo to hurry up?
乔治:完美需要时间。你能让米开朗琪罗快点吗?
