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.

Yeah, I don't know if I'd be up for grilling in 4c degrees. Thankfully, here in Sydney only in the dead of winter just before dawn would it ever get near that.

I feel your pain on the smoke when cooking indoor. I don't have an extraction fan on the range just one of those filter things which seems to just spread the smoke around. I much rather cook outdoors. And the beauty of cooking with charcoal, as opposed to gas grills, is clean up is just putting a load of coals in there and lettin' it rip to 300c+ and the fat burns away.
