Any occasion is a good excuse - birthdays, wedding anniversaries, public holidays and even an ordinary Sunday will do. An asado is a meal for family and/or friends, at midday or in the evening, where the main dish is beef roasted outdoors on a barbecue. This can be served with potatoes, red peppers, cheese or chicken, and various types of sausages and offal, all cooked on the barbecue. The wood used in the fire gives a unique and unmistakable flavour to the food. It takes some time to get the food ready, so the guests at an asado will have plenty of time to chat and socialize over drinks by the fire.* * *I adj roast atrII m1 roast* * *asado, -da adj: roasted, grilled, broiledasado nm1) : roast2) : barbecued meat3) : barbecue, cookout* * *asado adj1.

51 Colorado
(Sp. model spelled same [koloráðo], perfective participle of Spanish colorar 'to color; to give color to' < Spanish color < Latin color 'color')1) The thirty-eighth state of the union, named after the Colorado River. Hendrickson indicates that Spanish explorers named the river after the red color of its water.2) Carlisle: 1929. Red.3) As Clark observes, it is used as an attributive adjective in many combinations to denote animals (such as the "Colorado potato beetle" and the "Colorado turkey"), plants ("Colorado blue spruce," "Colorado fir," "Colorado grass," "Colorado River hemp") indigenous to the state. It often has a jocular connotation, as in "Colorado turkey," which can be either the great blue heron or the wood ibis, and "Colorado mockingbird" (see below). The combinations pertinent to the cowboy's era or profession are listed below. -
