I assume that's the word "barbecue". What's the [/] mean? I assume also
that the [&r] is the same vowel/consonant as in the word "Barry"/"bare"
and different from the world "bar"; is it normal in America/your part
of the world to pronounce it like that? (Or possibly you pronounce
"bare" and "bar" the same?)
(For me: [ba:b@kju\:] or [ba:bi].)
