Did people really bring their own barbecues into the Colosseum?

I'm honestly not sure. There definitely was hot food served by vendors at the colosseum, and we have ample evidence of portable Roman grills/ovens/cooking racks, but I don't remember if the two are explicitly referenced in combination with each other in sources or archeological finds.
