Barbeque is one of the most carcinogenic ways of preparing food, mostly from the high heat associated with the process, as well as the charcoal itself and lighter fluid added to or imbedded in the coals. Adding a lot of chemically-laden condiments (barbeque sauce, etc.) to barbequed meat makes the food even more carcinogenic. The least carcinogenic way to prepare meats is to simmer them until they are cooked, and keeping them free from artificial flavorings and colorings.
If you are talking about ingesting charcoal, which is often given in the ER after a drug overdose, I would have to say not very carcinogenic if used once or twice. Powdered charcoal rapidly absorbs whatever's in the stomach--including good things like friiendly bacteria, acid used to break down foods and to metabolize certain vitamins and minerals, and vitamins, minerals and enzymes themselves. Therefore, charcoal is not recommended for regular ingestion, as it will cause more harm than do good. I hope this helps to answer your question.
