Are exhaust fans over the kitchen range not a thing for some of you?
Ours don't work worth a crap.
I need to go to Kitchens are Us and get an industrial model.

If you think any electric range is a perfectly good way to cook, you don’t care enough about the quality of your food to understand why many of us also like to cook outside with wood or charcoal.
It will be 115* here today. I think I will go out and stand in front of a fire to drink beer.
It is a fact that bbqing was invented by women to get their simpleminded menfolk to cook dinner and get out of the house. Crafty gals baited the trap w/ beer.

Looks great! Rather kick around there than inside anyday!
Youse guys have obviously never lived through an Idaho Desert summer. We had 12 days in June over 95 degrees. It has been recorded at Boise 98 to 107 every day since June 26 with no end expected until near September. We are usually significantly warmer on this end of the valley. For example, Monday is recorded at 103, but I saw thermometers at 111 over here.
But, HEY, it's a dry heat! Right?
As mentioned previously, I HAVE to spend forty hours/week out in that. I find no joy going back into it after I get home.
I used to have to feed and milk cattle, and irrigate, and stack hay all day in heat like this. But that shcitt is well reserved for the young. Now I am older and near retirement. I will take the AC. I have earned it. And I can afford it.
Now excuse whatsoever.
I lived/worked where an average day's high temp in July was 108F. Yes, just an average day. It was regularly over 115F, and one stretch was 5 days in a row, not just 5 days in July, over 120F with the hottest hovering between 126F-128F on the ranger station thermometer 1/2 mile down the road. Mine read about 122-124F.
I had a nicer grill then than I have now, charcoal of course. And it was well used in the summertime.
By the time it was starting to get dusk in the canyon, a couple hours early than up the hill, it was cool enough to cook. As in 110F or so. Besides cooking, one could get in some yard work as the sun was setting too. I once mowed the lawn and thought it was quite pleasant out, so I looked at the thermometer................104F.
Oh, we worked at least 8 hrs a day in that heat too. Of course, we started at 0600 so we could go home around 1430-1500 and get out of the heat, until it was time to ..............................grill some food.
Outdoor heat is no excuse.
Don't need any excuse. Already explained I prefer the taste of floured and pan fried fish, pork, beef, or chicken. Ridiculous summer temps only reinforce the desire to cook under the AC.
If anyone around here wanted to use a grill, there would be a grill on the patio. No one in this house actually wants to use one. If I bought the Traeger, it would sit out there in the sun and rain. Five years or ten years from now it would still be sitting there with the first 50 lb bag of pellets in the hopper.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
There's something to kill it and grill it. If it will hold together over flame on a grate, I've at least tried it. Only times not, it's precipitating (white or wet) and blowing hard, or well below zero.
Up hills slow, Down hills fast Tonnage first and Safety last.
Absolutely you need a BBQ and to cook outside. Especially in summer time. We live outside cooking over oak coals, listening to music, sharing stories, drinking beer. Just this past weekend BBQ baby back ribs, homemade elk linquica and some pork belly!

Yes, but will it make your wife happy?

Not really. She would grin for about five minutes when it came off the truck.
Then I would get hollered at for the next ten years because it would be sitting on the patio gathering cobwebs and harboring yellow jackets. And finally she would have somebody haul it up and toss it in the dumpster......along with the first bag of pellets ever bought for it.
After forty years, this ain't the first time I have seen this rodeo.
