slo’s FRIDAY 8/25 poll - Your Grill

[Forevermarypoppins]

Outdoor, gas grill used all year.

One of our family favorites is to grill vegertables. My daughter usually is in charge and has found doing individual foil packets works best.
Idaho potato, sweet potato, green pepper, onion, carrot, peeled garlic cloves and cut up corn slices ( not easy to cut, MUST use caution). Add a pat of butter and drizzle some olive oil. 45-50 minutes, sorry not sure of the heat but I'm pretty sure it's on the high side.

We have a Weber gas grill and use it a few times a week from about April to October. I have been looking at blackstones, smokers or a pizza oven but I don’t think I eat enough meat to justify the smoker. We do cook a lot of seafood on our gas’s grill. We have a small house but a decent yard with a large patio so we do a lot of entertaining in the warmer months (we are in New England) which makes me think about other options. Pizza oven may end up the winner.

I have a charcoal BBQ I used maybe 3-4 times a year. I don’t BBQ anything special just hamburgers and occasionally chicken breast. I’m not good at it and usually burn it.

We have a gas grill that we use year round. Hubby is the resident griller!

This is us!

We have a gas grill as well as a Blackstone. Both are used fairly frequent in the warmer months (1-2 times per week in Kentucky, that's approximately April to October). DH is our grill person which is why we use it so much - if I can get help cooking, I'll take it

Practically all Canadians call what you call a grill a BBQ - although I realize that to “y’all”, that term refers to a particular type of cuisine.

We’ve got a propane BBQ - not sure if you want to count that the same as gas; it requires being hooked up to a 5 gallon refillable tank rather than a permanent gas line. We use it quite a bit for 3 seasons, but during the winter when it can regularly be -20 or below, it’s just too hard to keep it up to temperature efficiently.

We’re moving to an apartment condo soon and some of them don’t permit BBQ’s on the balcony but happily, ours does. We would sorely miss not having one. The new place actually has a built-in gas hook up so there may be a point where we replace our current unit.

I love hearing how things are called different names in different areas - it’s always interesting to me

Natural gas Weber on the patio. Used to use often, rarely use now.

Thanks for another great @slo poll week, Sandy. Enjoy our much cooler weekend after setting records the past few days.

Thank you for the thank you

There's a propane grill on the patio, haven't used it in years. I somewhat enjoy cooking but it's too much hassle to grill out.

 

[mamamary]

We have a gas grill on our deck. In the summer I use it at least once a week. I do grill year round although not as much in winter as I would in warmer weather.

 

[AppleDumpling]

Outdoor gas grill. We use it often in spring and fall, more frequently in summer, and once in a while in winter (grilled burgers on New Year’s Day has become sort of a tradition). We have a covered patio, so it stays somewhat sheltered from the elements.

 

[Babs Johnson]

We have a small charcoal grill now. We used to have a full size gas grill but over the years it got grungy and yucky and we finally got rid of it.

 

[jimmalru80]

One grill, one griddle. Both gas. Used all year.

 

[PollyannaMom]

Yes, we grill from snow-to-snow here! It used to be just DH's thing, but back when he had his heart surgery, I learned how to use it, and now I grill more often than he does. We have a Weber gas (well, propane tank) model.

We’ve got a propane BBQ - not sure if you want to count that the same as gas; it requires being hooked up to a 5 gallon refillable tank rather than a permanent gas line.

Yes, that counts! (In fact, the tank kind is what most people I know around here have, and refer to as "gas grills".)

 

[Meriweather]

We have a propane tank. It's liquid under pressure but when released to grill it is gas......and so I always say we have a gas grill.
DH's smoker uses just pellets

 

[Riley mrn]

We have a combo gas and charcoal. Use it from March to December. Had Mahi Mahi on it last night. Tasted great.

 

[luvnwdwgal]

We have a portable gas grill in our garage. It’s a pretty big detached garage with double doors in the front and back so he just opens them up and grills all year long. There’s a wood burner in it too to keep it warm if he’s grilling in the winter.

 

[CynBeth]

We have a charcoal grill but have not used it in years.

 

[darnheather]

Gas grill but it is falling apart. A friend is getting rid of his big green egg and giving it to us.

 

[georgina]

Propane grill on the deck, used year round. (Not much snow in the DC area) At a previous house we had a natural gas grill and didn't use it in the deep snow months.
