Dinner Time

Many of us enjoy going out for dinner, or to a friends house for a bbq, but what happens when it comes time to eat and drink? For example, in the case of a bbq, should you only eat what you brought or the equivalent (i.e don't eat the steak if you only brought sausages) or because its a group situation should you feel free to help yourself to whatever is on offer?
Also if you are eating out with a group, should you split the bill evenly amongst the group, regardless of whether you've ordered the most or least expensive thing on the menu, or should everyone pay for what they ordered?

If I go to a BBQ where I don't have to bring any meat (ie it is all provided by the host) I will usually bring some cheese and/or a bottle of wine to have before the BBQ. Sometimes it is a BBQ where it is BYO meat with salads, bread rolls, etc provided, I will only eat what I bring.
Depends on where you go to eat out with a group. If you go to a restaurant where it is easy to work out who ate what and to pay for your own meal, I prefer to. If you go somewhere like yum cha where it is hard to work out who ate what and what the cost of each dish was, I'd just split it evenly amongst the group.
