Lightning and tornadoes are the only thing that stops grilling around here, and the lightning has to be close and frequent. It's never too cold to grill. It does get so cold and windy that the smoker takes a lot of work though.

I agree on the grilling. Never to cold to grill. Only had a few times that prevented it and that was wind and heavy rain. A man has to know his limitations. LOL

Wind and serious cold can make it tough to keep the temp regulated on the smoker, the grill isn't a problem, I've got it figured out. I can grill at zero or lower, smoking stuff gets hard at about 45 degrees, especially if the wind is up above 8-10MPH.

Grilling too. 32 degrees & about 10 inches of snow. Feels like the Indy points race.

Menu: rib eye's, crab cakes, cheese & potato pirogies, mix veggies, 5 cheese Texas Toast. Then apple pie (warmed up) & Sanders Bumpy Cake ice cream on top. The bathroom scale will be a little higher tomorrow.

Have fun everyone. Go Packers!

No problem. When you go to new orleans do not waste a dining experience on a chair place. there are way too many good places down there. I would reccomend going by central grocery for a muffalletta sandwich though
