Run the grill?
Grilling meat is for men. I can’t imagine seeing my wife manning the grill.

No..... hell no.... mans work

Do they even know how to start it? Mine doesn't.

Yes she does. No big deal. Usually though, I'll grill the meat and she'll work on the other fixin's.

LOL...no.

She will grill burgers on her little charcoal grill. I have a BBQ pit. She doesn’t use that. I’ve never used a grill, wouldn’t know how. Mesquite and a steel pit is the ticket, even for steaks.

Mine can and does.
But not normally.

About the only things here she isn't comfortable with are the power saws and the zero turn. The 14 year old daughter runs the zero turn as well as many guys.

Glad I’m not alone. Ran into a situation recently, Seemed really odd to me, wife agreed. Dude didn’t seem like he realized how bad the optics of it were.
I mean…. In front of another man? WTF?!

Jack.... your instincts are correct

Of course she can.

Who the fugg doesn't teach their wife how to grill basic meats?

Did the “dude” in question wear an apron while tending the kitchen? 🤪

My wife is a splendid cook, all the way around, she just likes beef cooked longer than I do.

No.

I don't let mine cook anything.

To quote Dave

“Fugk, and no”

You talking full on charcoal? [bleep] me runnin…..

My wife has never used a grill, nor has she ever cut grass. She can shoot though.

She can. Hell I think it even tastes better.

cooking is the work of women......I hate to cook........bob

The grill is the only food I prepare.


I agree with Bob, if I wanted to cook my own food, clean my own house, etc. why the fugk would I get married?

I showed her how to regulate the temp on our green egg. She’s a pro now, not much she cannot do.

She does all the grilling. She picked it up when I started working abroad for months at a time. She enjoys it and does it well.

My wife did some BBQ’ing whilst I was away overseas for quite awhile.

She later said she always thought it was hard to do, watching the boys cook, until she found how easy it was👀

Nope.

I've tied to convince mine lighting a basket full of lump charcoal is easy. She doesn't want to have any thing to do with it.

Mine *can* grill but youre going to end up with everything WELLLL-Done

I have to remind her we are white folk, and ketchup will NOT fix dat chit.

Carpal tunnel?

My wife has no interest in cooking meat with fire, shooting guns, hunting or fishing. She also doesn't wear men's clothing, drink whiskey or gamble. She will drive my truck if she has to, but prefers her BMW. She's a woman. She worked at home, in her office all day today, but still got cleaned up, fixed her hair and wore a dress. I like it that way. I married a woman, I didn't acquire a buddy.

lol I married a farm girl. Only time I've seen her in a dress in the 20+ years we've been together was on our wedding day. And that was a fight haha. I've no use for a princess, but I'll be damned if I make my own lunches to take to work.

As long as it's on a gas grill, what's it matter.

Plenty of that to be had without putting a ring on it. Or playing househusband to get it.

Khan/ wife can't even make a proper grilled cheese sandwich.....

Wife does no grilling but make fine home made thick sliced applewood bacon in the smoker.

My wife couldn't imagine it either......

homestyle cooking restaurants

ya she runs the gasser and i do everything else

Don’t get me started on the George Foreman….

I love the Foreman!

My wife doesn't touch the grill or the smoker.
She makes fantastic meals on the stove and in the oven though

+1

Wife does not touch the grills, loves to cook inside

No way! That’s my job. Ribs and pork chops tomorrow.

My wife understands that women can’t do anything right.

So she pays the bills and I cook everything.

Win/win.

No, and she has absolutely no interest in learning how to use it. And I don't mind one bit.

Yea, but she mows one helluva lawn.

SMFH... No fire, no grill.

Damn!

That’s enough to make a Jew backslide.

We have a 50/50 agreement with dinner. 50% of the time I cook, and 50% of the time it's take out.

Come on Mane!

Nope my wife doesn’t grill or hunt. She also doesn’t drive if I’m in the car, or put gas in her car.


The first two I recognize as stuff other men’s’ women do for them and it ain’t no thang to me.

Letting yer woman drive you around or get gas if you’re in the car is complete and utter bs and causes me to really doubt yer manliness.

35 years I still haven't grilled my first hotdog. It doesn't matter if it is gas, charcoal, or an open fire, my wife not only enjoys doing it, she's an expert. She grills year around. She has grilled me steaks at -20, she did T-bones today and it was 95 with a 67 dew point. I need to bring her wateron hot days, but I don't mind.

My wife has a auger fed wood pellet camp chef outside on the deck. All I do is eat.

Not in Oregon.

If my wife ever leaves me I'm proposing. You'd make a damn nice wife.

That’s what my wifey tells me....She’s grilled twice in 9 years on my watch.

🦫

Brother you have a "keeper"

Jack, and you, are pretty spot on with people and their habits


Dude has a closet full of 3X negligee.

🦫

Yeah, finally !

I burned a lot of money on ex’s before I found her.

🤦🏽‍♂️🦫

my gal hunts, fishes, cooks n cleans, bbq's on the gas grill at home whenever she wants ..

at hunt/fish camp ? nope, never.... I do all the grillin on the charcoal grill or over the fire,

It's THE LAW in my camp and not subject to change

I rescued her from Oregon back in '90 ..... before Oregon went to hell

......

If it's animal protein, it goes to my grill.

You were a little hard on the beaver last night, Ward.

A year and a half ago my gal said she wanted a Traeger - powered by wood pellets. Got her one as a Christmas present, and a big sack of pellets. Assembly required. She started right in with it - uses it several times a week - really enjoys it - the meat and chicken are now better than ever.- uses it outside so no greasy smoke or extra heat in the kitchen. Win win.

If I don’t want to, she will do it. But nobody can cook a steak better than me, IMO. If it’s a quality steak, I am cooking it. Hotdogs and burgers, she can do.

Uh, I got my wife an air fryer a coupla weeks back.

She's "grilled" some burgers and chicken in it.

But start the charcoal grill?

I hardly think so.

Basic stuff on gas grill only.

Mostly veggies, hot dogs and hamburgers. Sometimes chicken thighs and drums.

Chars/blisters all her peppers, onions, tomatoes, tomatillos etc for salsas and sauces on gas grill.

Gruff always show up to camp with a case of Yahoo’s and Kraft Singles.

Talkin’ ‘bout “Can I stay in your wall tent too”

LOL

Regularly, I supervise from the hot tub

My old lady's idea of grilled is Burger King.

Many wives are a smart bunch, they know how to do a lot of things, but plead ignorance. That way the hubby will end up doing all the work.

Nope. With good reason.

Stepson gonna snake it from you regardless.

Just like them enchiladas. LOL

There seem to be a lot of guys in here that are not very sure of themselves.
If my wife got that grill delivered, and I wasn't around, she and the girls would
have it together and running in a couple hours.

My dad got killed when I was 2, mom had three kids to take care of.
That has been a running thing in my head our whole marriage.
My wife is a hillbilly girl and willing to learn, I have taught her to not
need me. If I don't see the end of this post, she and my kids will be fine!

Going to make Calabaza Con Pollo later.

Sounds awesome.

Mowing, grilling, and pumping gas are not among my wife's activities.

Sometimes. Last night she grilled burgers and had everything ready when I got home. Who's going to complain about that!?

Yes and she is very good at it. Today we are having a beef short rib cook off. She is using the Traeger and I’m rolling the Joe. She will probably win.

The thermometer you stick in the meat on the Traeger takes the guesswork of some smoking tasks.

Grilling is a trick played on dumb men to get them out of the house and cook dinner. Cooking is women's work.

My wife can light a fire and cook a 3 course dinner under a tarp in a rainstorm. While I mix drinks, watch for bears and critique her style. You know, manly stuff.

My wife loves to cook and is damn good at it, including grilling . She can run the lawn mower and pump gas. Back in my hunting days she was always with me and shot her own game. Can fish better than I can. Can change her own flat tire, wash her own vehicle. When I kick the bucket I am pretty sure she will be able to handle life by herself.

I've tried to get her to become a grill master but no luck.

She does however bring mower beers.

Couple days ago.

Awesome.

My wife could grill but doesn't. It's just a division of responsibilities. I would let my wife drive all the time. My manhood is not at risk. She pulls the trailer on long road trips. She is a natural shot, baits her own hooks (ever see a tube worm?) and cleans her own fish. She can gut, skin and butcher deer.
'm amazed at how some people here measure their manliness.

Never had a wife/girlfriend grill anything as far as I can remember.

Nope....Weber is off limits......

Today in fact...Weber...low & slow pork spare ribs....300* for just short of 2 hrs

Fresh tater salad....fresh cole slaw...pot'a baked beans....

On the dessert end...cherry cobbler in the Dutch oven...vanilla ice cream of course

My wife? The grill? She knows how to light it up....somewhat.

She can fire it up for burgers...that's about it.

If it's steaks, BBQ, fajitas, kebabs, or veggie sides....I get the nod. I also get the nod for the outdoors Dutch oven cooking.

In our house, she is usually the everyday cook indoors. I usually do the outdoor (grill & Dutch oven) and holiday meat cooking.

My wife has really nice boobs so I’m more than happy to cook.

as the saying goes.........

pics or it didn't happen.......

Absolutely not. She is forbidden. She tried one time while I was gone and damn near caught the outside of the house on fire.

My Son, home from college for a little while, he's turning into someone I trust with my grills,,cookers and smokers. He takes a lot of pride in it.

My wife is good on a gas grills. If its charcoal and wood I am the cook.

No she doesn’t, but she could.

One lap, one beer...😂

My wife cooks inside and outside, does dishes (leaves me pots & pans) cleans the house, does laundry, works in her garden and picks up dog poo! She also doesn't give me the stink-eye when I want to go hunting, shooting or fishing and doesn't beotch when I buy a gun or fishing equipment. If we have people coming over and are making a big meal, I do the grilling while she takes care of the rest.

We've been married 27 years and I still feel like I got very lucky to have her as a wife. BTW, she works and is an amazing mother too!

My wife will work the pellet smoker.
Not the real grill, and never when company is over.

Holy chit, I'd be fuucked up....lol

Wife isn’t interested in grilling.

She does however ask to mow the lawn a few times every summer.

My wife grills often, in fact has several different "grills", smokers, etc.--because one of her primary jobs is writing about cooking game.

Have known a LOT of men who are completely incompetent at the job--mostly because they tend to spend the time drinking beer, and occasionally turning the meat--which doesn't need to be done nearly as often as they think it does. They also don't get the grill (or whatever) hot enough to cook correctly, so everything gets cooked pretty much gray all the way through.

Eventually they drink enough beer to get hungry, and cut up the meat. It's so dry and gray they douse it in "special sauce" to make it kinda edible.

Sounds a lot like my wife, she'll grill sometimes but I do the lions share. I have no problem with that, she's great. Couldn't ask for a better woman to share my life with

My wife can barely run the toilet.

LMAO

I've seen that too often.

When I used to drink at other's places.

Never happened when I was on the grill though
