I used to grill/bbq any time I wanted to, regardless of the weather. But now that I'm an old person, I'm less enthusiastic about keeping up a grill regimen when it's 40 degrees, windy, and rainy. In this nutty weather we're having in the DC area (well, it's always nutty here) I've taken advantage of the occasional 70 degree day to fire up the grill. In the meantime, I've become better at using the cast iron grill pan on my stove top, but I have to disable the nearest smoke detector when something's cooking there.
