Howdy,
With winter weather approaching, I was wondering how many of you use
indoor
grills? I have the George Foreman grill which I like. However, I can
taste the difference between grills.

I live in Phoenix where winter time is the outdoor season. I have the
opposite problem. I tend to not do much outdoor cooking in the summer
except when camping up in the mountains.

I live in CT and grill outdoors all winter, provided the ambient temp is
above 15º or so. I don't consider food 'grilled' unless it's cooked over
wood produced high heat. My dos pesos

There ya go, Jack! I know Tn ain't known for it's cold winters, but it
deserves honorable mention anyway for a southern state.

I reckon I cooked more outside there in the winter than I do here in the
summer. Seems to always want to rain right about the time I want to cook
here.

Speaking of rain, it's dumped about 4 inches on us in the last 2 hours.
Can't see the grass, can't see the street, can't see any reason to go
outside and cook.

Hot peppers, cheese and cold beer sounds good tonight.

Here in sunny, warm Massachusetts (not), I have my WSM runnin' all year
'round. As a matter of fact, my cooker is the first thing I shovel out when
the snow starts falling.

I do use more fuel, but otherwise I have no trouble maintaining temps.

If I didnt BBQ in the "R" months, I would probably go into withdrawal!

I think all our winters pale compared to Harry D up in Ice Station Calgary.
My place in E TN gets plenty cold, maybe only 10º warmer than here in CT.

Hear that. Cold I can take; getting soaking wet just don't send me.

I got frosted so I picked the last of my crop of chiles. Stunted poblanos,
ok serranos, lotsa tabascos. I'm drying and grinding up the tb's for
powder.

Sure you can taste the difference - no wood smoke.

We have a Foreman grill the kids use to make burgers and the like but
Texas
don't get that cold that I can't bundle up when I go outside. Sides, I
ain't out there all that long.

If I'm gonna grill or smoke on one of the 3 days a year it gets cool here I
just put on a longsleeved shirt and go out and fight mosquitos and cook.

I grill less, but I don't stop. Sometimes I'll grill in the wood burning
stove.

We do tend to change menus as the season change and have more pot roasts,
lasagna, etc. but some thing just have to be cooked on a grill.

Here in Florida, it doesn't get that cold very often, *BUT* the few times
that it does get below freezing, it seems like I'm always trying to cook an
all nighter. Most times, I put on a jacket, but the last time last year, I
did put on a pair of shoes. That damn ice sure is slippery under bare feet.

I live north of Buffalo NY Grill and smoke year around.

I use my CharBroil gas grill 3 to 5 times a week year round. Some weeks
in the summer I use it 7 to 10 times.

I grill the year round, but don't do much BBQ in the really cold
times. So the K7 is not overworked in Winter.
Maybe if I buy the BBQ Guru for it, that may change. But right now
it's not sufficiently important to me to spend $200 US plus shipping.
The K3 mostly grills although I occasionally do set it up for lo/slo
