Thanks, Ingeborg.
neutral David Moore (X) : I don't think "barbe*Q*ue" has many hits...

Thanks David, the Q (oddly enough) is the US version, as is the folksy BarBeeQ.
agree Kim Metzger : The spelling barbeque is given in Merriam-Webster OnLine (barbeque) as a variant spelling but not in the Concise Oxford English Dictionary (barbecue)

Thanks Kim, I guess I'm under the US influence of BarBeeQ.

Barbeque Buffet

This gets quite a lot of hits, and is featured in several restaurants. My guess is this is some style of "Mongolian" grill, in which patrons choose their food, and it is then barbequed in front of them. It's hard to tell with so little context.

Mongolian Grill also gets a lot of hits, and not just the restaurant chain.
