Talk:Brochette

No mention of an alternate definition popular in America (at least)? Brochette commonly means 'bacon-wrapped', as in shrimp wrapped in bacon and grilled on a skewer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.115.193.74 (talk) 07:39, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

Redirected to Skewer
Since we already have the skewer article which discusses the skewer and various related dishes of skewered food, I felt that this article should be about French-related food. In English, skewer is by far the more common word, and probably "kebab" too, to refer in a general way to food on skewers. When we say "brochette", it's usually in relation to a French-influenced cuisine, "lamb en brochette" etc. So I removed the material related to pinchos, kebabs and so on. But after that, there was almost nothing left, so I've just redirected it to the skewer article for now. If anyone wants to bring the page back and expand it, go ahead. --IamNotU (talk) 01:38, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
