If it was meat free then surely by definition it was not a BBQ
as a BBQ involves cooking meat over hot coals such that it is flavoured by its own juices and the smoke of those juices burning.
Sounds more like a vegetarian grill. Or hell, doubled by the lack of booze.

I'm afraid Lokers has hit the nail on the head here.

I assumed a barbecue could cook vegetables.
I stand corrected.

It can.
You are standing incorrected there, go back to where you were.

Not according to my dictionary

Origin:

mid 17th century: from Spanish barbacoa, perhaps from Arawak barbacoa 'wooden frame on posts'. The original sense was 'wooden framework for sleeping on, or for storing meat or fish to be dried'
