Well, I've lived all over the US and I can safely say that:

1. Traditions do differ from place to place re: BBQ
2. The South is always more formal than other places
3. The tradition of bringing your own meat, rather than bringing salad/side dishes has as much to do with the fact that (especially in a place like California) at any given BBQ there are probably going to be vegans, vegetarians, pescetarians, and people who just want a burger. It is much easier to provide a section of sides that will please everyone than to provide for all the special protein needs.
4. BBQs where the host provides all the food, or where people are asked to bring sides only also occur frequently.
5. The person who wrote this complaint is being a bit ridiculous.
