Grilling Ham (noun): A clever tactic to avoid work or ignore a call. Originally based on the idea that someone was “too busy grilling ham” to respond, it now refers to any exaggerated excuse for getting out of something.
Sorry, boss, I can’t join the Zoom call—I’m in the middle of grilling ham.
or
Mike called—he's going to be late, busy grilling ham.
